Agency dashboard (Command center) ​

The Agency Command Center is the central flight deck for agency founders, directors, and account managers. It aggregates high-level performance across all managed client workspaces into an actionable single view.

Overview and key objectives ​

Instead of logging into dozens of individual client portals or ad accounts every morning, the Command Center surfaces:

  1. Urgent operational anomalies (broken connections, sudden performance dips).
  2. Growth opportunities (breakout viral posts, high-intent leads).
  3. Cross-client performance benchmarks (revenue generated, blended ROAS, portfolio reach).

Attention queue ​

The Attention Queue uses automated heuristic rules to prioritize which accounts need your team's immediate focus:

Severity levels: ​

  • Critical alerts:

    • Connection auth failure: An OAuth token expired (e.g. Meta, TikTok, Google Ads) preventing fresh data synchronization.
    • Severe sentiment drop: A sudden surge in negative mentions detected in Social Listening.
    • Ad budget pacing warning: Campaigns that have consumed >90% of their monthly budget before day 20.
  • Action required:

    • Content review pending: AI content ideas or video scripts waiting for client approval in the Content Lab.
    • Goal milestone approaching: Client targets nearing the end of the evaluation cycle.
  • Opportunity signals:

    • Viral content breakout: An organic short-form post performing 300%+ above the 30-day baseline engagement.
    • High-intent Reddit lead: Prospective customer asking for direct brand recommendations.

Client health grid ​

The Health Grid provides an instant composite score (0–100) for every client workspace:

Period selectors and benchmarking ​

Use the global period selector at the top-right of the dashboard:

  • Last 7 days: Immediate week-over-week operational review.
  • Last 30 days: Standard monthly client reporting cadence.
  • This month (MTD): Current month-to-date trajectory vs target.
  • Custom range: Compare seasonal campaigns or bespoke sprint dates.

Best practices for agency leads ​

TIP

Daily standup workflow:

  1. Start each morning by clearing all Critical alerts in the Attention Queue.
  2. Check the bottom 3 lowest-scoring clients in the Health Grid to assign proactive optimizations to account managers.
  3. Export a portfolio summary for weekly executive partner meetings.
