Trello How-To

Are you ever confused by Trello’s pricing? Here’s a breakdown of how it works and what’s the main difference between the plans. Watch this and you’ll understand which plan you need and what you’ll pay.

(Bonus - I offer you to reach out to me if you’re struggling with a feature or not sure what you need and I’ll help you figure it out. I do know some workarounds…

I didn’t mention this one in the video, but I’ll share it with you, my loyal readers… if you want custom fields but don’t need the automation, just use the Amazing Fields Power-Up - honestly I kinda prefer it over native custom fields anyways, and depending on the features you need, it’s free!).

Creative Use Case

Using Trello for a Product Hunt launch.

Software and tech friends, if you’re planning a launch on Product Hunt soon, Trello is a great way to keep track of all the tasks associated with it.

Here’s a template you can use.

I’ve created a card for tasks that I need to do as part of a launch, and I can keep files, documents, and even contacts, together all in one place and make sure I don’t forget any launch.

For those wondering - this is not just a random template. I’m actually planning to launch this newsletter on Product Hunt soon! Stay tuned!!
