This is incredibly helpful stuff. Imagine all the work hours you helped save for other people! Please put out more content like this when you can. Whoever disliked is probably envious they didn't come up with this system first.
Wow I want to be as good of an organization nerd as you. Super useful video. I really appreciate that you focused on solving the challenges of running a business rather than the nitty-gritties of just using a tool. Do you have any content that covers more about how you tie this all together with Sheets and Calendar? One of my employees now says he uses a similar stack, glued together with Zapier to automate data management for his startup and was curious to see a comparison of strategies.
Ever considered moving a 'delete' item to an 'idea graveyard' board? Then when you have ideas, before committing them to the project pile, you can search for them in the graveyard and read why you rejected them at the time.
Thanks I have started using Asana two weeks back but its a bit of mess, hopefully this video will help. I am going to delete and restart. Just wanted to check how the templates created.
This video was extremely helpful, Natasha! Thank you so much for sharing this gold! I would love to see more like this, if you're open to creating them!
Hey there! That tab specifically just breaks down each team player's role, name, contact information for new team members and our clients. But we do have mindmaps that include everyone's responsibilities in the company. Hope that gives you a good starting point! - Natasha, CMO @schoolofbots
Do you know how to manage project budgets in Asana? I would like to document cost by each activity and then roll up the costs by project. Thank you, Natasha!
Hey there! :) This would be a bit tricky to automatically keep track of using Asana. I would recommend using Google Sheets or Airtable (which you can think of as a blend between Asana and Google Sheets). If you're insistent on using Asana for this, you could try using the exact same format for every Asana card description - Then use a Zap / Scenario in Integromat to find that budget, and put it into a Sheet/elsewhere to calculate this. Hope that helps!! :) - Natasha
at 13:16 I was wondering how you created Sections for your subtasks...it looks like you imported a whole project in but I can't figure out how you did that. My subtasks can't be catigorized
Hey Wendy!! :) When you're inside of an Asana card, if you click TAB + N on your keyboard it'll create a new section. Let me know if that answers your question! - Natasha
This was such great content. Thanks for sharing! Do you find the Premium plan is sufficient for your group work or do you use Business plan for Portfolios and Timeline?
I like how you have everything so organized and sort of automated :) I'm so going to try this out for some projects I'm working on. I'm also mostly on the go with my cellphone (will be getting a laptop eventually) and am curious as to what apps you use? I will be using the Asana app for sure and maybe Airtable.
Hey Azurebat :) So glad to hear that this video was valuable! I use about 10 core platforms to get work done. However, I mainly organize everything under Asana and Google Sheets. I've been wanting to get more into AirTable recently, but haven't had time to dig into it. I found out about it when they first launched, but then forgot about it because I didn't want to learn a whole new platform :) Thanks for watching and being a part of the #botfam!! - Natasha
Hey Antonie! That's exactly correct :) We have 2 types of boards for client projects: internal for our team, and client-facing. Hope that helps! - Natasha, CMO @schoolofbots

Hi Uvil, this video is more than a year old so we've definitely refined our video production process since then :) Hope you can still find this or our newer videos valuable! - Natasha, CMO @schoolofbots
This seems like a great video but the volume on your voice is so low (and the music is so loud by contrast) I couldn't watch anymore : (. But it looks like a good video, I know I could probably hear it if I went and got headphones but I just don't have time to look for them.
Agree. Voice volume is just a bit low...music doesn't help.I'm 6 minutes into the video and it's annoying. The info is good...will try to deal. Can you remix?
Thanks for the feedback Laura and Virgil! This video is more than a year old so we've definitely refined our video production process since then :) Hope you can still find this or our newer videos valuable! - Natasha, CMO @schoolofbots
Content is great, the presentation suffers however. Music is too loud. The presenter talks nonstop with the same level of voice over the music with no emotion or you just rush through the presentation. It is very hard to listen, I tried to listen to it couple of times and I felt asleep on the 5-th - 10-th minutes. There is also the nose at about 19-th minute of your video which is waking up the listener, but is in huge contrast with all previous video, so it make feel your listeners bad. I am for sure will not listen it twice and I will find somebody else to listen on this topic. Please take it as the feed-back, not an insult.
thanks for the feedback Teresa! This video was filmed in our early days of recording, so our apologies for the not-so-amazing sound. We’ve definitely leveled up our production since then! Hope you still found this video valuable :) - Natasha
this is the clear & best guide to asana also project management in the whole internet
Thank you for your help with the idea and access to ASANA. I like the asana work system, and if I'm a beginner. thank you
This is legendary! Holy grail of organization!
This is incredibly helpful stuff. Imagine all the work hours you helped save for other people!

I LOVE that 1st task on your list!!!!
Got an update on you use it since Asana has evolved considerably since this video was published. Cheers!
Amazing. The best asana tutorial video so far that intuitively made sense.
spobob88 happy to hear this was valuable for you! :)

The "I'm an organization nerd" thing makes me smile.
Gold. Exactly what I needed
Amazing! We're so happy to hear that :)
@@schoolofbots do you know of any sites that can handle managing 100s of Instagram pages all in once place?
Ever considered moving a 'delete' item to an 'idea graveyard' board? Then when you have ideas, before committing them to the project pile, you can search for them in the graveyard and read why you rejected them at the time.
Definitely! We keep them in an "idea" column so we don't have to waste time moving them to a new board.
- Natasha
Love the pile up zone! Great idea for a general 'brain dump' spot so you can keep focused. Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome! Glad you found it valuable :)
Thanks I have started using Asana two weeks back but its a bit of mess, hopefully this video will help. I am going to delete and restart. Just wanted to check how the templates created.
My entire life is a pile-up-zone! Ha ha Seriously though, I cannot believe I've not thought to do this. Definitely gonna try utilising a Pile-up-zone.
Haha, same ;) Glad you found this valuable!

Great insight! I use asana also and you’ve taught me a few things I didn’t know existed in it - thanks!

But we do have mindmaps that include everyone's responsibilities in the company.

this is great video, Id just like to mention your audio is off (to low when you're speaking, and too loud when there's music)
Great tips many thanks!

This is exactly like Toyota's kanban system they use on the factory floor to track part assembly. さすが日本人だね

Are your boards named after the client while the projects are set up as tasks to be completed with a more detailed subtask list?
Hey Antonie! That's exactly correct :) We have 2 types of boards for client projects: internal for our team, and client-facing. Hope that helps!

I use Restyaboard
Awesome, glad to hear that's working for you!

Great demo! Are you guys using any team chat platform with asana as well? Like slack
We use Slack! :) We utilize Asana comments for most of our conversations, but Slack for urgent matters or long discussions!

Awesome video except the volume was on the low-side
Great video. Thanks
Glad this was helpful for you!

Audio needs a lot of improvement considering you have a mic. Out of proportion with the music.

The music was too loud.
Great information. Background music is very annoying though.
Thanks for the feedback Anthony! We no longer add background music to our videos :)
