How to Design Google Docs Flyers with ClickUp

ClickUp can streamline every step of creating a polished Google Docs flyer, from planning the copy and visuals to tracking feedback and final approvals with your team.

This how-to guide walks you through turning the ideas and templates from the Google Docs flyer templates resource into a clear, repeatable workflow you can run inside your workspace.

Why Manage Flyer Projects in ClickUp

Before you open Google Docs to design a flyer, organize the work in ClickUp so nothing falls through the cracks.

Managing your flyer design in a centralized system helps you:

• Capture every idea, reference, and brand guideline in one place
• Assign ownership and due dates to teammates
• Track copy, images, and layout tasks separately
• Standardize your process using templates
• Review and approve creatives faster

Set Up a ClickUp Space for Marketing Flyers

Begin by creating a dedicated area for all marketing and promotional flyers.

Create a ClickUp Space or Folder

1. Create a new Space named something like Marketing & Flyers.
2. Inside that Space, add a Folder called Flyer Campaigns.
3. Within the Folder, create a List for each campaign or product launch.

This structure keeps multiple flyer projects organized while still giving you a single place to see deadlines and progress.

Add Custom Fields for Flyer Details

Use Custom Fields in ClickUp to store key details for each Google Docs flyer, such as:

• Flyer Type (event, product, sale, hiring, menu, etc.)
• Target Audience (students, leads, customers, partners)
• Primary Goal (sign-ups, downloads, ticket sales)
• Distribution Channel (email, print, social, in-store)
• Template Link (URL to the Google Docs flyer template)

These fields make it easy to filter and report on many flyers at once.

Build a Reusable ClickUp Flyer Workflow

To turn one-time efforts into a consistent process, build a simple but complete workflow you can reuse for every new flyer.

Define Flyer Task Statuses in ClickUp

Create clear statuses to track each stage of work. For example:

• Planning – collecting requirements and goals
• Copy Draft – writing the flyer text
• Design Layout – building the flyer in Google Docs
• Internal Review – feedback from your team
• Client or Stakeholder Review
• Final Edits
• Approved
• Published / Printed

Every flyer task moves through these statuses so you always know what needs attention.

Create a ClickUp Task Template for Flyers

Transform your process into a task template so starting new flyers takes seconds.

1. Create a new task called Flyer Master Template.
2. Add a checklist with key steps:

• Clarify flyer goal and audience
• Choose Google Docs flyer template style
• Draft headline and main body copy
• Select colors and fonts that match brand
• Gather photos, icons, and logos
• Insert content into Google Docs template
• Format layout and test printing
• Send for internal review
• Apply feedback and finalize
• Get final approval
• Export or print flyer

3. Attach links to your brand guidelines and reference materials.
4. Save the task as a task template in ClickUp.

Next time you design a flyer, simply apply the template to auto-populate the steps, fields, and structure.

Plan Flyer Content with ClickUp Docs

While Google Docs holds the final flyer layout, use ClickUp Docs to plan the content and collaborate with your team.

Draft Copy and Ideas in ClickUp Docs

Create a new Doc inside your marketing Space to outline:

• Flyer goal and key message
• Audience pain points and motivators
• Headline and supporting subheadings
• Short body copy and bullet points
• Call-to-action text and link or QR code instructions
• Any disclaimers or fine print

Invite teammates to comment and suggest edits directly in the Doc before you move content to Google Docs.

Connect Docs to Flyer Tasks in ClickUp

To keep everything linked:

1. Attach each planning Doc to its corresponding flyer task.
2. Mention the task inside the Doc using task links.
3. Pin the Doc in the task description so stakeholders can open it quickly.

This gives you a single source of truth for the creative direction behind every flyer.

Use ClickUp to Organize Google Docs Flyer Templates

After choosing a layout from the Google Docs flyer templates collection, organize your links and versions directly inside your workspace.

Store Template Links in ClickUp Tasks

For each flyer task:

• Add the Google Docs template link to the Template Link Custom Field.
• Paste the same link into the task description for faster access.
• Note the template name and main style (minimal, bold, event-ready, etc.).

Now anyone on your team can open the right Google Docs file with a single click.

Track Flyer Versions and Feedback in ClickUp

Instead of relying on email chains or chat threads, centralize all flyer feedback inside the task.

1. Create a comment thread for each major review round.
2. Mention responsible teammates using @ mentions.
3. Attach screenshots or exports of flyer versions if needed.
4. Convert important comments into subtasks for follow-up changes.

This structure makes the review process transparent and easy to audit later.

Visualize Flyer Work with ClickUp Views

Different views help you see your flyer work from multiple angles, so you can prioritize better and never miss a launch date.

Manage Deadlines with ClickUp Calendar View

Use Calendar view to see when each flyer is due.

• Drag and drop tasks to adjust target publication or print dates.
• Color-code tasks by flyer type or distribution channel using Custom Fields.
• Filter the Calendar to display only active flyers for the month.

Use ClickUp Board View for Workflow Stages

Board view turns statuses into columns so you can work Kanban-style.

• Move flyer tasks from Planning to Approved as you progress.
• Limit how many tasks sit in Internal Review to avoid bottlenecks.
• Quickly spot any flyer stuck in one status for too long.

Automate Repetitive Steps in ClickUp

Once your process is stable, save more time by automating routine steps.

Simple ClickUp Automations for Flyers

Set up automations such as:

• When status changes to Internal Review, assign the task to your creative lead.
• When status changes to Approved, add a checklist item to export or print.
• When a due date is approaching, send reminders to the task owner.

These small automations ensure every Google Docs flyer moves smoothly from planning to publishing.

Measure and Improve Your Flyer Workflow with ClickUp

After a few campaigns, analyze how your team is performing and where to improve.

Track Key Metrics Inside ClickUp

Use views and reporting to monitor:

• How many flyers each teammate is handling
• Average time from Planning to Published
• Common blockers during the review stages
• Which flyer types require the most revisions

These insights help you refine your template, status list, and automations over time.
