In the world of freelancing, where you are the beauty, the brains, the admin, the marketing team, and the finance department, being organized can easily fall to the bottom of your to-do list. There\u2019s no boss or team to keep you accountable for your productivity, and keeping track of your own schedule can feel like an extra burden on top of all the work you already<\/em> have to do. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Managing your projects is just as important as managing your time. Having an overview of the progress of your projects allows you to stay aligned with deadlines and to track any project changes, delays, newly assigned tasks, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

There are plenty of online tools designed to assist with all things project management:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Evernote<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evernote is a note-taking app, project management app, to-do list app, and more. The premise is simple: you can take notes on it and then organize them into notebooks that can be accessed across all your devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The best part? As long as you have an internet connection, Evernote will sync the data in your notes so they’re always up to date across all of your devices (and you don’t need to worry about losing any information if something happens to one device). You can also share certain notebooks with other people through the program’s sharing features. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

In addition to creating standard text notes within an individual notebook or using tags for organization purposes (like “to do” tasks), Evernote lets users snap photos from their phone cameras or save screenshots from documents or webpages; these images are automatically uploaded when opened in another tab without any additional steps required by the user!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Asana<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asana is a free <\/em>project management tool that can help you manage your workload and keep track of what needs to be done. It’s great for freelancers who need to assign tasks, collaborate with other people on projects, and make sure their work is completed on time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Asana is extremely user-friendly and the interface resembles a whiteboard with lists for each task you have to complete. You can add descriptions to each item in your list (like “equipment needed” or “email draft”), which makes it easier for others to see what needs doing and when. Asana also gives you an overview of all the items in all your projects so you can see how close they are to being completed at any given time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

But wait, there\u2019s more! If that wasn’t enough functionality, there are plenty more features such as tagging items so they show up under multiple categories or adding attachments from Google Drive or Dropbox directly into Asana boards without leaving the app at all! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Trello<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trello is a free web-based project management application that allows users to create and organize projects, tasks, and ideas on virtual boards.

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Airtable<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Airtable is a database that can be used for anything. Seriously, anything. From project management to customer support, Airtable has got you covered. That being said, if you’re not a database person and don’t have time to get into learning one (or several), then this might be the wrong product for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
