New Templates?

Julie Becker

Hi Smartsheets Crew;

I wanted to know if you guys are going to create any NEW Templates in your Solution Area

OR 🤔

If you plan on ENHANCING / ADDING to your EXISTING ones (to utilize any/all recent changes to the software) since the Template(s) was launched?

😁 It would be great to see some fresh new ideas that relate to Construction or anything really.

I kind of miss the template contest this year…. It challenged me to be creative and it was fun seeing what other people came up with. ☺️

@MCorbin ya i missed it too, but i am also hoping that the Smartsheets Crew would also create new ones as well especially with all the recent changes and additions to the program itself.

Template Brainstorm Time! 🧠💡!

Heard you're hunting for fresh template ideas. As a Smartsheet hacker (podcasts, media, CRM, PMO, Chg Mgmt – I've been around the block), I've got some ideas to drop. Let's cook up some templates that'll make Excel users want to switch teams. 😎What crazy cool templates are you dreaming up? Let's make Smartsheet the envy of spreadsheets! 😎 Shoot me your ideas below! 👇

Hi @Julia L Rumburg (aka Smartsheet hacker - 😂),

I am not sure how much of a Construction Background you have, but curious to know what types of ideas you may have. I have been working in Construciton since i was 14yrs old (1987 - before the government claimed it as child labor 🤣), and so when i looked at both the old/new templates that Smartsheets had created over the years, i was deeply disapointed with what very little of what they did create did not truly represent the Construction Industry (with details needed from start/finish, tracking phases, multiple scopes). I see that those who did create many of the Smartsheet Templates, had more of a business/sales/marketing background, but even those lacked many other disciplines / phases within them (man i hope that made sense lol).

If you prefer emails or a video call for security purposes, please let me know as well.

Below are a few screenshots of Column Labels, Sheet Titles, & Dashboards I created incorporating images/emojis to help tell the story of our progress for you to see how those can work with todays kids entering our workforce.
** These are all still in DRAFT phases, and have blurred out items to protect the owners/clients etc.. but this allows you to see how i used them for some of the setups.
