Stop hunting for client designs—Talleflow's new Canva integration lets you link designs directly to projects, so when a client asks "where's that design from last month?" you'll find it in one click (no more tab chaos).
Picture this: A client emails asking about "that Instagram post design from last month." You know exactly which one they mean. But where the heck is it in Canva?
You start clicking through folders, scrolling past dozens of designs, checking project names. Ten minutes later, you finally find it. Your client's been waiting. You're annoyed. And you're thinking, "There has to be a better way."
Good news—there is.
Talleflow just launched a Canva integration that solves this exact problem. It's simple: link your Canva designs directly to client projects in your CRM. No more hunting. No more "Where did I put that file?" moments. Just one click from your project to the design you need.
In this post, we'll cover:
Here's the thing about running a service business: your work doesn't fit neatly into categories.
You're not just managing contacts. You're not just creating designs. You're doing both—usually at the same time, for the same client.
When your client management lives in one place (your CRM) and your creative work lives in another (Canva), you're constantly jumping between tools. And that context-switching? It kills productivity.
The real cost isn't just time. It's the mental load of remembering which design belongs to which client. It's the stress when you can't find something quickly. It's looking disorganized when a client asks a simple question.
A CRM that connects to your design workflow eliminates all of that.
Let me be clear: we didn't try to rebuild Canva inside Talleflow. (Why would we? Canva's already great at what it does.)
Instead, we built something smarter—a way to link your Canva designs to the projects they belong to.
Here's what that looks like in practice:
Working on social media graphics for a client? Create them in Canva like you normally would. Then add those designs to the client's project in Talleflow.
This works for any type of Canva design: presentations, marketing materials, social posts, brand kits, proposals—you name it. If you made it in Canva, you can track it in Talleflow.
Need to edit a design? Just click it in Talleflow, and boom—you're in the Canva editor.
No searching. No "Is this the right version?" No opening twenty browser tabs to find what you need. The design you need is always one click away from your project view.
The integration creates a visual hub for each client's creative work. Open a project, and you'll see every Canva design associated with it—organized, accessible, and easy to find.
Think of it as your design asset tracker that lives inside your CRM. You get a bird's-eye view of all creative deliverables without leaving your project management workspace.
(And no, Canva doesn't embed directly in Talleflow—that would be overkill. The integration just keeps smart links so you always know where things are.)
You're managing five clients. Each client has dozens of designs—ad creatives, social posts, email headers, landing page graphics.
When a client asks, "Can you make the Facebook ad look more like that Instagram post from March?" you'll find it instantly. No digging through your Canva dashboard. No trying to remember what you named it. Just open their Talleflow project, click the design, done.
Keep every client deliverable organized by project. Your Talleflow project becomes your source of truth—showing designs alongside timelines, feedback, invoices, and communication history.
Plus, when you're juggling multiple clients, you'll never accidentally send Client A a design you created for Client B. (We've all been there.)
Track all those one-off designs: proposal decks, presentation materials, workbook templates, lead magnets, course graphics.
When you're preparing for a client call, you won't waste time hunting for materials. Everything you created for that client is right there in their project.
Managing multiple content campaigns? Organize thumbnails, social graphics, and visual assets by project or campaign.
See your entire content workflow—planning, design, and execution—in one unified place. It's especially helpful when you're repurposing content and need to find that original design file.
Let's talk benefits. (The real ones, not the "synergize your enterprise solutions" kind.)
Stop Wasting Time Searching for Files
The average person spends 2.5 hours per day searching for information they need. That's over 12 hours a week—gone. With Talleflow's Canva integration, you'll get that time back. (Well, a lot of it anyway.)
Look More Professional to Clients
When a client asks about a design, you pull it up immediately. No "Let me check and get back to you." No delays. Just instant access that makes you look organized and on top of things.
(Because you are.)
Never Lose Track of Project Assets
Which designs are finals? Which are drafts? Which client does this belong to? You'll never wonder again. Everything's tagged to the right project, so you always have context.
Keep Your Workflow Smooth
Move seamlessly between project planning and design work. No mental gymnastics to remember where you put things. No breaking your concentration to search for files. Just smooth, productive work.
We could've tried to build a design tool into Talleflow. Lots of CRMs try to do everything—and end up doing nothing particularly well.
That's not us.
We believe in connecting best-in-class tools rather than building inferior versions of them. For design, that means Canva. Millions of people already use it. It's great at what it does. Why reinvent the wheel?
Our integration respects your existing workflow. You keep using Canva exactly as you do now. But now you get the added benefit of project-based organization through Talleflow.
You get the best of both worlds: Canva's powerful design tools plus Talleflow's project organization.
Ready for some good news? Setup takes about 30 seconds.
Open any project in Talleflow. Add a Canva design. That's it.
Once you add a design, it'll appear in your project view with a direct link to open it in Canva. No complex configuration. No learning curve. No "Let me watch a 20-minute tutorial first."
Just immediate, practical value.
The best CRMs don't try to do everything. They become central hubs that connect to your favorite tools.
That's the philosophy behind Talleflow. We integrate with best-in-class apps so you can build a workflow that actually works for you.
The Canva integration is just one example. It connects your design workflow to your client management, creating a more cohesive operation where nothing slips through the cracks.
(And honestly? It just makes your day less stressful. Which is worth a lot.)
If you're tired of the "Where did I put that design?" scramble, Talleflow's Canva integration is your answer.
It's simple. It's practical. And it'll save you a lot of time (and stress) over the long run.
Want to see how it works? Start a free trial of Talleflow and add your first Canva design to a project. You'll immediately get why this makes such a difference.
