Jooto Launches New Expert-Reviewed Templates for Efficient PR Management

Jooto, a cloud-based task and project management tool from PR TIMES, has recently announced the launch of its new series of “Expert-Reviewed Templates.” These templates aim to provide professionals with proven, structured workflows that can enhance their operational efficiency. The first template in this series focuses on interview management, edited by renowned PR designer Natsuko Inukai, who boasts over 10,000 interview-related experiences.

Starting March 5, 2026, organizations can leverage Inukai’s extensive expertise to better manage media inquiries, which often rely heavily on individual experience and subjective interpretations. The template provides a comprehensive framework from initial inquiry to internal communication and decision-making processes. Jooto’s magazine offers an insightful guide on using this template effectively, which is designed to clarify operational methods and the underlying philosophies behind its design.

Expert Insight from Natsuko Inukai

Inukai emphasizes that managing media inquiries often suffers from dependencies on the experiences of personnel involved. The newly developed template serves as a critical tool in visualizing the complete workflow from receiving media inquiries to facilitating internal discussions. “We distilled the essentials to create an easy-to-navigate document. The goal is to reduce uncertainty and ensure that anyone involved can execute tasks at a consistent level,” she states. This is especially relevant in creating an operational framework that supports teams in receiving continuous media engagement without bottlenecks.

In a profile detailing her career, Inukai notes her impressive tenure at JR Nagoya Takashimaya, where her public relations initiatives led to nearly 500 media appearances in a year. Her efforts during events like “Amour du Chocolat” have significantly contributed to sales and customer loyalty, reflecting her strong capabilities in effective public relations strategy. Apart from her role as a PR designer, Inukai is an esteemed instructor in PR courses and a judge for the Corporate Report Awards, showcasing her broad influence in the industry.

About Jooto's Expert-Reviewed Templates

Jooto's templates are specifically designed to allow users to initiate their task management without the hassle of delineating specific tasks or creating lists independently. By implementing industry-standard workflows, users can transition smoothly into productive management practices, enhancing overall task efficiency. By September 2025, Jooto aims to offer diagnostic tools to recommend optimal templates tailored to specific operational needs, further solidifying its commitment to user-friendly solutions in project management.

With the introduction of the expert-reviewed templates, Jooto positions itself as a multi-dimensional tool not limited to mere task management. It aims to serve as a platform for diverse professional workflows spanning multiple departments, significantly aiding organizations in standardizing procedures across departments such as HR, Sales, and Finance—each of which can harness the benefits of these new templates.

Practical Implementation Guides and Future Plans

To complement the release of the templates, Jooto has also published a detailed practical guide elucidating the utilization of the interview management template. This guide elaborates on operational strategies, choosing the right lists, and integrating the interview request process into the broader internal workflow, supporting the standardization of operational practices. This resource is geared toward ensuring that the templates not only serve as a tool for implementation but also facilitate broader organizational changes within PR operations.

Jooto's commitment to evolving public relations into a structured practice is evident in recent seminar events where experts, including Inukai, share their insights on transforming public relations from reactive efforts to systematic, organized practices. Such endeavors underline Jooto’s goal to simplify complex workflows in public relations and beyond, creating a supportive environment for all team members.

As Jooto continues to expand its library of templates, the aim remains clear: to foster an environment where all kinds of professionals can manage their workflows efficiently, facilitated by expert knowledge and easy-to-follow procedures.
