A tour of an Asana expert's account Sep 2024

I can personally attest that you are the BEST Asana consultant in the business. Blessed to have learned so much from you.

You're too kind Ralph, thank you for the continued support :)

Hey Paul, just stumbled on this vid of yours, it was awesome mate. Nice to hear a fellow antipodean who knows his cucumbers too. We will now do more with Asana, directly as a result of this vid.

[@minor-co]

Thanks, glad we could help 😀

This was a really good video. Nice to see how you use it for your business. I have a quick question that I can seem to find the answer to. I synced my Asana tasks to my google calendar. But on my google calendar it only shows the tasks on that day. But not the day and time. Even though the tasks in Asana has a day and time set. Am I missing something. Or will it only show the Asana tasks at the top of my google calendar. Thanks!

[@minor-co]

Thanks! No, you're not missing something this is just how the sync works (I find it a bit basic/limited)

[@kenniquaj]

@@minor-co aww okay. Thanks

I am intrigued by your set up with all client projects in one "project" folder...I currently have DOZENS of projects set up because I have each client as an individual project. To change this methodology would be a significant time suck, but I'm wondering if it would be worth it....Seems there are some drawbacks though or maybe just a matter of getting to used to things being different.

[@minor-co]

Yeah it's just a different way of doing it. A lot of our engagements are quite small so we don't need an entire project and a task with subtasks is sufficient for us.

I work for a personal injury law firm; we were trying to get Clio, however, they use Asana. I wanted to know if there anything you know about sending emails to clients using Asana including text. I see there's an integration with outlook, but right now we are using the free version, we are willing to pay for two seats, but wanted to know if emailing clients, and text messages from Asana is possible..

[@minor-co]

The Outlook integration is more for getting tasks from Outlook into Asana (not the other way around). You could look at using Zapier to automate emails e.g. when a task is complete or updated, trigger an email. Feel free to contact is if you'd like some help setting this up.
