ClickUp's Hierarchy allows marketing teams to organize their Workspace efficiently.
Here are some Workspace Hierarchy best practices for marketing teams:
Space
We recommend creating a single Marketing Teams Space so that everyone can work together and collaborate effectively from one place.
By working in the same Space, your entire marketing team can use comments and @mentions anywhere to notify teammates about the progress of projects or tasks and collaborate efficiently.
Folder
Within the Marketing Teams Space, each marketing team or primary function is separated by Folders.
Creative
Use the Creative Folder as a place for the creative team to manage their projects and assets.
Campaigns & Promotions
This Folder can be used by the marketing team to manage their current campaigns and promotions.
Content
In this Folder, the content marketing team can manage their website, blog, and social media work.
Team Operations
This Folder can be used by the marketing team to manage incoming marketing requests which can then be routed to the appropriate teams or manage other high-level team operations.
List
Lists are containers for your day-to-day work. Think of Lists as tabs within the Folders.
Creative
The Creative Folder contains the following Lists:
Creative Projects
The Creative Projects List is where the creative team can manage all of their ongoing projects at a high level.
Asset Library
The Asset Library List can be used to capture an asset library, where each task represents an asset.
Use Relationships to connect these assets to the relevant creative projects for your team.
Campaigns & Promotions
The Campaigns & Promotions Folder contains the following Lists:
Campaigns
The Campaigns List can include all of your marketing team's planned and ongoing campaigns.
Promotions
The Promotions List can include all of your marketing team's planned and ongoing promotions.
Content
The Content Folder contains the following Lists:
Website
This List can contain all of the work and content needed for your website such as logos, graphics, and images.
Blog
This List can contain all of the content and posts for your blog.
Social
This List can contain all of the content and posts for your social media accounts.
Team Operations
The Team Operations Folder contains the following Lists:
Incoming Requests
You can use this List to manage all incoming marketing requests. To receive and organize marketing requests, we recommend creating a marketing request Form at the Marketing Teams Space level using Form view.
When a marketing request Form is submitted, a task will be created in the Incoming Requests List, and using an Automation, the task will be added to the relevant Folder (Creative, Campaigns & Promotions, Content) based on type.

Tasks
Tasks are the actionable items meant to progress from open to closed, using task statuses. Each task will always have one parent List, but they can also be shared with other Lists for your convenience.
The task statuses in your Marketing Teams Space should differ based on Hierarchy location to allow for customized workflows based on the marketing function.
In any Workspace location not included here, the task statuses should default to the Marketing Teams Space level statuses.
Marketing Teams Space
The following statuses can be assigned at the Marketing Teams Space level of your Workspace:
Campaigns & Promotions Folder
The following statuses can be assigned at the Campaigns & Promotions Folder level of your Workspace:
Content Folder
The following statuses can be assigned at the Content Folder level of your Workspace:
