270hours
manual work saved per 120-participant program

A single program previously required approximately 230 hours of manual email management plus 40 hours of script QA.

100%
reduction in manual data-entry, copy-paste, and role-assignment errors

Centralized data and automated routing eliminated manual errors that could lead to missed or incorrect communications.

1-2minutes
to generate program emails

Email generation that previously required manual preparation is now handled through the automated workflow.

Challenge

As the number of participants grew, the work required to run each program grew with it.

23 emails per participant

Each 10-12-week program required 23 different email touchpoints per participant. For a 120-person program, that meant hundreds of individual communications to prepare, verify, and send.

Hours spent on manual communication

The team spent approximately 230 hours managing emails for a single 120-person program - work that added directly to the administrative workload every time a new program launched.

Copy-paste created costly mistakes

Participant lists and roles were managed manually. When one manager was promoted to director, for example, the team forgot to update the mailing list and the person was missed.

Program information was scattered

Information was spread across Google Sheets, Google Docs, Gmail, Asana, 17Hats, and an older Airtable setup. There was no single place to see what had been sent, what needed approval, or where each participant stood.

Growth was hitting the team’s capacity

The manual process had already reached its limits after handling 166 managers the previous year. Larger programs would require more administrative work without a corresponding increase in team capacity.

Solution

QuitCode rebuilt the program operations workflow around a centralized system that could handle communication, scheduling, participant data, and program setup in one place.

Airtable became the single source of truth for participant, program, and communication data

Reusable program modules allow new programs to be assembled from 9 standardized building blocks

Automated communication routing determines who receives each message based on participant roles and program hierarchy

Email generation, approval, and tracking remove the need to manually manage every communication

Centralized scheduling connects program sessions, meetings, and participant information

Custom interfaces give the team visibility into program status, pending approvals, and completed workflows

The new system turned a manual, fragmented process into a repeatable program operations workflow, built to support 2–3× program growth without adding administrative staff.
