Hi Paul, I have been watching some of your youtube videos and am learning quite a bit! Thank you. I am a stay-at-home mom who used to own an interior design business (my team and I used asana for project management in the 2014-2016 era). For home use, I have recently started an online course called learn-do-become that is all about organizing. I am using asana for home projects now. Here is where I get SUPER confused. They set up a project called "Kath's Projects" and in there the sections are "Current Projects", "Next in Line Projects" and "Someday Projects". Within those sections they put things like "recover dining chairs", "clear out garage" as tasks, which they then outline the next steps as sub-tasks. Now what I am not getting is how do I also have a project called "MY HOME" and list out those "mini-projects" PLUS the 10,000 other projects i would like to do. Do I make an actual project called "MY HOME" and make a list of the 10,000 tasks there and just move a task from there to "KATH'S PROJECTS" when one of them is going to be a current project (or next in line)? I don't expect you to help me for free, and I would love to get input on how to think this through. Do you offer one on one consulting? If yes, what is your rate for that? Would you be willing to help me even though I do not have a business currently? Many thanks, Katherine
Hello, thanks for great tutorial, subscribed! I want to ask you - since we are using gmail in our team, to which are e-mails redirected, should we use our gmails to sing in Asana, or we can use the original email address (non-gmail). I'm asking because we will want Asana to sync with our google Drives and files on it. Thank you very much!
Hi Paul, Do you have any videos regarding custom fields to track task costs? I’m looking to add a cost field and invoice paid (yes/no) field against our tasks in a project so I can then filter or download excel to track. Thank you
It depends if the two companies are just small businesses that you run on your own, in which case you could just use one account. But if you have two separate teams for each business and you don't want to mix up the work, then two accounts would be best.
@@minor-co Yes it is two separate teams, one it is me alone and the other is me and a friend. Do you recommend to create two profiles on chrome browser? Or can I just have two asana accounts in the same profile? Thank you!
Thanks for the helpful video. Question if you don't mind. I want to be able to only have one Task in a Section at a time. So for example, if I wanted to add another task in a section that already has a task in it, I wouldn't be allowed to because there would be some sort of restriction notification that pops up. Is this possible?
Hi Paul, i am getting so frustrated because i am using my work domain account but i dont get the option to make different teams (marketing, sales, admin etc) how can i fix that?
@paulminors hi Paul I did. I also contacted the asana support team they said there was an update and they changed it so there is no longer the option to make different teams... :(
Thank you so much, atleast i have achieved something today because I been using many tasks and couldnt catch up anything. Thank you
Glad I could help!
Thanks. Now I know what Sections are. Onward to the next unknowns of Asana.
Glad I could help!

Hi Katherine, would be great to chat in person about this. Feel free to book an intro call with me here: paulminors.com/consulting/asana-consulting/

You can whitelist multiple email addresses in your profile but I'd suggest signing in with Google.
thank you@@minor-co
Hello; Fantastic platform
Thanks Frederick!

Thank you
Yes, have a look at this video: ruclips.net/video/DZV4mep5kAg/видео.html&pp=ygUUcGlwZWRyaXZlIGNvbW1pc3Npb24%3D
Great onboarding help. Thanks for that 👍
Thanks, glad I could help!
How do you organize when you have two companies? Just one Asana account for both?
It depends if the two companies are just small businesses that you run on your own, in which case you could just use one account. But if you have two separate teams for each business and you don't want to mix up the work, then two accounts would be best.

I'm afraid that's not possible.
Hey Paul just signed up for asana and in the setup something is diferent to yours I do not have the botton add team this is a bit strange
Even if you don't see it in the sign up, you can still create teams in your account from the left sidebar.
Hi Paul, i am getting so frustrated because i am using my work domain account but i dont get the option to make different teams (marketing, sales, admin etc) how can i fix that?
I'm afraid the only way to have teams is to have your account set up as an organisation, which would require a custom domain
@paulminors hi Paul I did. I also contacted the asana support team they said there was an update and they changed it so there is no longer the option to make different teams... :(
Why does you Asana view look so different than mine?
This video was made a little while ago so it's likely that you're seeing a new/different interface in places.
How can I create team
You need to be a member. Then you can create one from the sidebar on the left.
