Your welcome 🤗
Great training session - thank you very much. I'm in trial mode and still working Asana out. Is there a way to see all my prjects and their tasks in one single view?
Hi Annette,
You can see all your projects on the left sidebar. However, you cannot view all projects and task in each project in one single view. Just click on the project and view your tasks with different viewing formats above the project. The free version is perfect for most small businesses. All the best!
Thank you.
You're welcome!
thank you for your support ! please kindly advise i would like to add a columns into a task
Hi, you are welcome! You can change the way your view your tasks to show a column like structure.
thank you for sharing.. I was using Trello for more than a month na, and I am still searching for something like calendar-format.. I will try to use Asana for the meantime
Hi Jedi, Glad it was helpful!
Give Asana a go. The multiple layout views makes it such a good tool.
I learnt of Asana today, I have been hired to be a PA for a very small business where most things I am the one doing by myself. Can I use Asana for self projects??
No reason why you can’t use Asana for self projects, at least you would be getting used to the software and you would gain some experience when you have something to work on that might involve multiple tasks/people...
Hi, I'm 3 years late, but I was wondering how Asana has worked out for you? I also applied to a position of assistant, and I'm exploring different prohect management apps. Thanks :)
Very informative!Thank you for the tutorial☺️
Hi Analiza, thanks again!
Your shirt is 🔥, great pick.
Appreciate it!
You r great
Your welcome!
Very good, Do you know a good easy crm ?
ps does this integration with crm??
Hi, mate,
Yes, I would check out Hubspot we have a recent tutorial on our channel if you want to check it out.
Thanks soo much for this tutorial, very helpful. Can you also track project progress in Asana and if so, how?
Yes, absolutely! There are a few ways you can track progress. We are releasing an updated tutorial soon that will cover this.
You should be able to go into the task and either add a percentage complete....or add tags which say (for example) not-started, in-progress, complete, on-hold etc....and select one of those..
good content
Thanks!
My mom is teaching me this I think it's a cool app
Awesome!
Congrats! Thank you for this. One question guys.. can I synchronize Asana to Google Calendar? Thank you!
Your welcome! Yes your sure can.
Hey Stewart, I love your vids, thanks. Q - can you set up a master project that has all the tasks & detail required, then duplicate that master for each new project? I ask because I need to use the same list & tasks for new client projects (i.e. it's the same process for each client that spans over an 8 week period). I'd be working with multiple clients at different stages? Thanks
Hey Brendon,
Great question, yes you can create/duplicate templates of exisiting projects.
@@StewartGauld thank you, much appreciated
Watching from Bangladesh
Hi mate!
Me too!
Again, thanks for a wonderful tutorial. back to GTD - but what if I want to lists projects by PRIORITY. How do I do that. Some will be more important than others? Other project management tools have the ability to add tags which you can search on. Can Asana do this?
Hi Bradford,
You are welcome!
Yes that is correct you can add tags and set customise the priority.
Thank you for the tutorial! But I don't have the teams section in my toolbar to add teams :(
Hi Kamilya,
Oh really? Try create a project first.
@@StewartGauld me neither and never had it. Someone told me that this is a premium feature.
Hi, Thank you for the tutorial - Q: In a large project with multiple departments involved, how can one add multiple teams? or do I need to create a team that has all departments involved in one team?
Hey Abe,
I suggest creating a team for that project. However, you can add multiple teams too. Just depends how you want to structure your project.
Great video. Just so you know, the animation that accompanies you saying "leave a like for this video" has a rapidly increasing "thumbs down" number.
Thanks for the info!
Kia ora from a fellow Kiwi business owner! I'm already using Asana as a member of a couple of client teams, and starting to look at using it for my own personal task/project management as well.
Currently, I see my tasks for each of the teams I'm part of as a separate workspace under my account, and I need to toggle between them. Do you know if there's any kind of master view I can use to see all the tasks for all of my workspaces in the same view?
Kia ora Tanja,
Great idea! We use this for personal notes and day to day tasks too.
I dont think you can unless you open each project board up in seperate windows. I will have to look into this!
@@StewartGauld Thanks so much for the reply. I'll see if I can figure out an option that works for me :-)
Tanja Gardner. I believe that you create your overall project (called TanjaOverall for example), then for each tasks in the other projects you tag them to TanjaOverall as well...
Is there a way to carry over new project tasks and sub tasks onto an old project on Asana instead of manually entering in each one?
Yes you can set up automations for this.
Hey mate
How do I build my own template?
For example every time I list a property for sale the set of tasks that are required are the same.
I'd ideally like it if Asana could create a project and populate it with these tasks every time a property is listed.
Is this possible with something like Zapier?
Hi Nathan,
This is possible. You can simply use a template or start a project from scratch and set it up the way you like. You can work with Zapier and look at the options between your other viable software that you use to list the property and create a ZAP to Asana.
@@StewartGauld this would require an Asana subscription though right?
Watched this and am still none the wiser in terms of how it will do anything other than add un-needed complexity to my business...
Hey mate,
Do you see how this can better organise your projects and teams?
Do you provide one on one training?
Hey mate,
Yes we do for certain tools.
I've been trying to find a PMT that can create Quotes and Invoices direct from the tool. Does Asan have that functionality?
Hey mate,
No it does not. You can use a tool like Zoho projects for this.
How do you pan left to right on the board? I have more columns than I fit on my screen.
Hey Brandon,
You can use your courser and click the side navigation bar to view the other sections.
How do I link it to my google calendars? It's either not simple or most likely I am doing something wrong. Any suggestions?
Hi Dr. Priya!
If you head over to app intergrations you should just be able to connect by signing into Google.
Hi Stewart Gauld
I am Virtual Assistant in asana. I have 3 years experience in it. There are many products that we upload to the WordPress website and when we upload the pdf file to WordPress and we update the task and make its mark. I have a lot of experience in it. If there is a job please let me inform.
Looking forward to hearing back
Hey Kamran,
Will keep that in mind. Thanks!
Hi! What if the teams don't have company emails can they still be added?
Hey Yasmine,
Yes they sure can!
Can we manage agile project workflow in asana?
Sure can mate!
I am just trying out with asana but then on the free trial version, i can't see an option to add a NEW TEAM? I was hoping you could help out with this?
Hi mate, under teams click 'invite' and invite people.
Hello Stewart (from Europe) ! I'm discovering Asana and it's very interesting. Do you think it could fit a workflow ?
A task in column 1 which is complete is sent to column 2, and column 3... ?
Thanks a lot for your tuto.
Yes, absolutely. We use it for our project workflows. However, I personally think Trello is best suited for workflows. Feel free to check out our Trello tutorial.
@@StewartGauld I will for sure.
@@StewartGauld Is that really an automated function in the free Trello? Would like to set timeframes for certain tasks with blackout times as well, and upon completion of individual tasks the project is automatically moved to next task in line...Any idea how that would work? Great videos!
I don't see the add team button? It has been removed?
Hi Patrick, it should still be there. You can always add your team from the dashboard or from inside the project itself.
Thanks for the great info
Glad it was helpful!
I’ve joined a group that is basically using Asana as a task list. 30 things assigned to me at a time, and then changes or removed, with constant new notifications. It’s overwhelming. Important things and unimportant things get same visibility and priority/immediacy. How is that best managed?
Hey!
I would play around with your filters and manage tasks in specific groups.
is client will give us asana logins?
Hi mate, what is your question?
Hi, is there a way to use asana to automatically pay your team with asana? or can you link it was some other payment system? thanks
No you cannot pay your team with Asana, you will have to look into another software for this.
@@StewartGauld thanks for replying :) do you have any suggestions of what other software?
@@AlwaysImproving1 You can give me the money and I would be happy to manage it and distribute it to the team (minus a small fee)....😬😬
What do you think of CLICKUP - meant to be the next best thing and way better than ASANA?
Hi mate,
Thanks for that. I will have to look into this.
In the beginning, you chose Pen and Paper notes... how do you change all that if you didn't choose it from the beginning? Not seeing the option in settings
Hi Rodney,
That is just the layout structure, you can simply change your project layouts or templates. Are you trying to use a project template on an existing project?
Thank you for this tutorial, I have a question. Will the members be able see each other’s tasks or each member will view the task he/she is assigned to?
Thank you.
They will be able to see all tasks, correct.
@@StewartGauld I am beginner, I am trying to add multiple assignees, but I cant. Could you please help.
How do we set up to see all our teams task that are over due - how do we massage we other in asana
Thanks
You have access to messages on the left hand side. Make sure you have access to project or create teams for specific access to projects/tasks.
@@StewartGauld any chance you have a video on this as I have had asana for three years and I didn’t realise how powerful it is. At the moment I have trainings all over the place with a lot of information but unfortunately I have not set it up well.
Do you offer training and clean up on this?
I understand that there is a book sold on Amazon however i cannot find it
A book?
@@StewartGauld what the heck is eos was the book i was told to buy nvm
what is that mean by 1000 tasks per team in the free plan? is that accumulated from the beginning or once we deleted the project it will be reset?
Hi Lucas, That means how many active tasks. Yes correct, when you delete projects/tasks you will reset your limit.
@@StewartGauld thanks man.. You are really good
@@lucasyong2049 Cheers Lucas!
Hi! I would to ask how do I cancel my 30-day free trial in Asana?
Hi mate,
Click your profile image in the top right. Read more and click Admin console after this navigate to the billing tab. From here, select Cancel Plan/Trial or Edit Plan.
Is it good for GTD?
Sure is!
Pls do asana vs trello vs notion vs slack :)
Will look into it. Thanks!
