Type of company
Marketing & paid ads agency:
60 employees
Dozens of active clients
Monthly (and sometimes weekly) reports
Teams of:
Performance
Accounts
Address
Tools already in use:
Google Ads, Meta, LinkedIn
Analytics
CRMs
Excel to put it all together
Hand-made slides and PDFs
The agency was growing, but reporting was still manual and took up a disproportionate amount of the team's time.
The Problem
Each reporting cycle involves:
Export data from multiple platforms
Copy and paste in Excel
Adjust formulas
Transferring numbers to slides
Change texts manually
Check that there are no errors
Answer customer questions afterwards
And this is repeated:
For each client
Every month
With slight variations
“Reporting consumes an absurd amount of our time.”
“Each report is slightly different.”
"If someone changes on the team, it's noticeable."
“Responding to customers means reopening Excel.”
Nothing was broken.
But reporting had become a structural burden .
What was built

A centralized reporting system was created that allows the agency to:
Import all your data (platforms, Excel, historical data)
Structure them only once
Generate automated professional outputs
Answer questions without redoing reports
The system was designed to be repeated month after month without friction .
1. A single repository of customer data
The agency connects and uploads:
Data from ads platforms
Historical Excel
Third-party reports
Internal notes
Everything remains:
Standardized
Versioned
Associated with each client
This step eliminates the chaos of sources.
2. Dynamic reporting templates (PDF and presentations)
Standard templates are defined, with:
Dynamic KPIs
Automatic graphics
Texts vary according to results
Customizable sections per client
Every month:
The system automatically generates:
PDFs
Presentations
Without copying and pasting
Without redoing slides
The output is:
Professional
Consistent
Repeatable
Scalable
3. An agent to answer questions about the reports
This is the big difference .
Both the internal team and the client can ask:
“Why did the CPA decrease this month?”
“Which campaigns explain this result?”
“Compare me this month to last month”
“Summarize the key points of the report”
The agent:
Use real data
Understand the customer's context
Give clear answers
Reduce unnecessary emails and meetings
The report ceases to be a dead document .

The repetitive was systematized
and space was left for human value.

Consistent reports across clients
Repeatable and documented process
Less dependence on specific people
Business Impact
More time to optimize campaigns
