A Simple 15 Minute Setup for ClickUp [Project Management Tutorial]

For the last two months I've been using ClickUp as the main project management hub for my company. ClickUp is an incredibly powerful task and project management tool, but in this video I'll show you the best way to set up a simple project sprint.

In future videos I'll show you more advanced features. But remember that often the best way to learn a new tool is not by figuring out every little thing, but by working on a specific outcome, in this case a six week project sprint.

If you'd like to learn more about how I organize projects—without a bunch of jargon or checkpoints—watch this video from a few weeks ago https://youtu.be/ZTj1UkIAVco

ClickUp has all the features you would expect from a task/project management tool. Task tracking, status types, assignments, and so on. But there are two specific features I love that I made a point of showing you in the video.

First is task dependencies. ClickUp does it better than any other tool I've seen. For example, if I tasks for setup webinar and create signup page in ConvertKit, well I can't really complete the signup page task until the webinar is setup. That's a dependency and I show you how to set that up in seconds.

Second is time tracking — yes TIME TRACKING! At the click of a button you can track time for a specific task, allowing you to have a better awareness of the time spent on said task. This allows you to better protect time for the same or similar tasks in the future, improving your productivity.

Disclaimer: this is a sponsored video from ClickUp—but hopefully as you know—I only promote tools I use.
