Lay the ground work:
A little preparation goes a long way toward creating effective assignments and staying within your budget.
Communicate and Track Tasks
Effective communication prevents most assignment issues we typically encounter.
- Communicate with regular meetings: see our Recurring Meeting Agenda Template.
- Establish your preferred communication platform(s): such as Chat, Slack, Email, Text, etc
Keep on top of the workflows with Tools of the Trade
The right tool can help solve asynchronous work challenges. We recommend using:
- Loom: it’s a great free tool for asynchronous work. Use Loom to record a video of your screen and your audio to outline a SOP, ask a question, provide training, etc.
- Be sure to track tasks in a project management platform, such as Asana or ClickUp. Or, use our Task Tracker Template: in Docs or Sheets. This is especially important in an asynchronous, remote environment, so that the two of you can collaborate as needed.
- A password vault to protect your passwords and share them with various team members.
