Being a business owner can be overwhelming; find out how I stay organized.
Let’s face it, running your own business isn’t easy because all the responsibilities fall on you! You can feel like you are being pulled from all different directions and constantly treading water trying to keep up. You know you need to get organized but have no idea where to begin. If this sounds like you, then keep listening as I share my top 3 tools for staying organized in your business.
Some people are naturally organized, and others are the complete opposite! Even if you are extremely organized, running your own business can be a bit all over the place. I have tried many different tools to try to stay organized and today I’m sharing my top 3 with you. So here we go….
#1 is ClickUp
Click Up is an amazing tool that can integrate with almost any other tools that you use like Google, Zoom, Slack, Microsoft Teams and the list goes on. It’s like a one stop shop where you can take all the different tools you use and have them in one place. If you have a team, you can assign tasks or projects to them and communicate back and forth. You can even connect your email to Click up! Instead of having 100 things saved in your bookmark tabs, you can just integrate and go straight to Click Up. They also have different views depending on what is more visibly appealing. You can do a calendar view, list view or board view. I have been using click up since day 1 and have implemented it in several of my client’s businesses to help streamline processes. I’m sure there is so much more that I have not even tapped into but it’s definitely worth checking out and there is a free version!
#2 is Asana
I was first introduced to Asana from a client of mine and fell in love. It’s very easy on the eyes and super easy to follow. It allows you to do different views much like click up as well as assign tasks to members of your team. It also has the ability to integrate different tools or programs and acts as a great communication tool between you and your team. You can create different projects and store documents and tasks under each for easy viewing.
If you are not into learning a bunch of new programs and tools, then you will love my #3..
#3 is GOOGLE
Google! It’s an all-in-one spot where you can email, manage your calendar, save documents on your drive and more. My favorite part about Google is that I can share documents so easily with clients and we have a centralized place to organize everything. If you are already using Google then you know the ole saying, “if it’s not broke, then don’t fix it!”
So, if you are feeling overwhelmed, I hope you check out these 3 tools to see how they can help you! If you have another favorite, please share in the comments below.
