Trello Tips

The List Limits Power-Up shows you how many cards you have in each list! You can set limits so that if you have more than that number of cards in the list, it will turn the entire list to a yellow color to warn you. While I don’t generally adhere to list limits, I do find it useful for quickly counting how many cards are in each list!

I recently took a YouTube course by the GOAT YouTuber, Matt D’Avela (check him out if you haven’t already. It’s not like some kid playing video games… he makes cool content about minimalism, productivity, habits, and more.) As a result, I put a new spin on a video I’ve been wanting to make for a while that’s all about how I use Trello every day. What do you think?

Although probably a tool you’re already familiar with, I’m a big fan of Calendly.

I’m a social person, what can I say? And as much as I hate unnecessary meetings, when it’s a coffee chat or organized well, it can be super productive and - dare I say - energizing!

I like to use Calendly, because even with the free plan you can hook up all your calendars (work, personal, and any others) and create a link that lets people book times on your calendar that you allow (based on your working hours and times that don’t have any conflicts with your other calendars).

Here what you’ll see if you go to my calendar URL.

Super quick way to set up times to meet with people and prevents all the back and forth of trying to find times that work.

You can probably get by with the free version of Calendly. I recently upgraded because I wanted to create multiple meeting types as I’ve started doing more consulting, so being able to let people pick from 1 or 2 hour slots is important, but I still want to be able to offer 30 min slots to folks for miscellaneous catch ups, coffee, etc. I also think there’s an option for group calls, which I might start doing soon, TBD.

👋 See you next week!
