Agency client portal for website launch requests, blockers, and approval

Agencies need a client portal when launch work depends on client-side assignments, not just another shared task board. Shipperly focuses the portal on what clients need to finish before go-live.

01

Route client-owned launch requests through a Client Lead.

02

Give stakeholders direct access to assigned actions.

03

Keep blockers, comments, and request details attached to the work.

04

Use final approval as the end of the launch readiness workflow.

Launch signal

The portal should match the client launch workflow.

Client Leads need visibility and delegation. Stakeholders need assigned actions. Agencies need blockers, comments, progress, and approval status without turning clients into internal project users.

What Shipperly tracks

Built for the client-side work that decides go-live.

Feature 01 - Routing

Send launch requests to the right client-side person.

The Client Lead can delegate requests when the agency does not know whether marketing, legal, IT, operations, or leadership owns the answer.

  • Client Lead delegation
  • Stakeholder assignment by email
  • Agency override control
Feature 02 - Action portal

Show what is needed from the client right now.

The portal emphasizes urgent open actions, unassigned requests, due dates, request details, launch impact, and project progress.

  • Needed from you view
  • Assigned and unassigned client requests
  • Request details and comments
Feature 03 - Launch outcome

Connect client work to blockers and final approval.

Completed requests, blockers, known exceptions, and final approval should all support the same go-live decision.

  • Client blocker reasons
  • Final approval request
  • Project progress and readiness context
Comparison

Agency client portal vs shared project board

A launch portal should reduce client confusion, not ask clients to learn the agency operating system.

Spreadsheet, email, or generic PM tool
Shipperly

Clients browse a shared PM board and guess what applies to them.

Shipperly shows the client-owned launch requests and assigned actions relevant to go-live.

Every stakeholder asks the agency where to respond.

Stakeholders use magic links to complete assigned requests, comment, or flag blockers.

Final approval is disconnected from the work clients completed.

Final approval follows the same readiness trail of assignments, blockers, and exceptions.
