For our users who need to organize a podcast workflow we have a handy new template:
As with other marketing templates we have been building recently, this template comes with useful resources and checklists to make sure you don’t miss anything.
Check out this template and let us know if we can improve it!
We have a new template that is a very comprehensive checklist of all the activities that a product marketing manager needs to consider, when launching a new product:
The tasks are grouped into stages, represented by columns:
To give credit where credit is due, this template is inspired by a blog post by Chris Orlob.
Check out this template and let us know how we can improve it!
Marketing events look like they will be virtual, rather than in-person, for a very long time, and to help our users we have a template that can set you up in just seconds with a complete Task Board:
This is a more elaborate template, with over 20 separate cards organized into a smooth workflow: Pre-Planning → Launch Preparation → Promotions → Operations.
Each card, representing a significant task, comes with helpful resources (as attachments) and detailed subtasks. Here’s an example:
We have been preparing a number of templates for our users. Most recently we have been focusing on our Marketing and Nonprofit users, but we will also be launching templates for many more jobs, to reflect the broad spread of our users around the world.

For folks that need to manage production of YouTube videos, we have a helpful template that will set up your Task Board in minutes:
The workflow itself is simple: To Do → Researching → Recording → Editing → Designing Graphics → Scheduled → Done.
We have included useful links and suggestions in the first column to help you if you are new to YouTube video production. Here’s an example, on how to produce a video description:

We got feedback from some users after our last big release on how we could improve the user experience for folks who like to use the auto-numbering feature for Task Boards, and we have made these changes:
When you open a task, it’s number is shown (but can’t, of course, be edited)
You can now search for a numbered task simply by typing “#number” in the Search box
With our new user interface we made it easy to see how many tasks (cards) there are in a single column: the count appears at the top of each column.
We fixed a problem that was stopping embedded videos from resizing on Kerika’s Whiteboards.
You can add any video, from anywhere, to a Kerika Whiteboard and then resize it by simple dragging it’s corners:
We have added action buttons for the two most common actions that users perform with cards, especially when they are viewing them using one of the mobile views: Move to Done and Move to Trash:
We have also added Done and Trash to the set of Status Values you can assign a card when viewing it’s details, on desktop and mobile:
Because of the way we developed our mobile apps for Android and iOS, it’s possible for us to make back-end and front-end improvements without necessarily requiring you to update the app that you have already installed.
A lot of these improvements are bug fixes and performance increases, and they have been going out steadily since the official launch of our apps. So don’t be surprised if it seems the Kerika mobile app doesn’t ever need to be updated; it’s possible for us to improve Kerika without requiring to download anything.
Enjoy the app.
We fixed some bugs in our billing system that were creating invalid credits and refund requests depending upon the sequence with which Account Owners were adding or removing subscriptions quickly.
For folks who are currently using all their subscriptions and want to change a member of their Account Team, it’s important to remember to first remove the old member before you add a new person: otherwise your Account Team will temporarily be larger than the subscriptions purchased, and this could result in a new invoice being generated automatically.
