PMP's BFF

The problem with most task and list managers that most of them emphasize graphics and good looks over functionality. Kanban style block desktops and apps which require a lot of screen real estate to show individual tasks look really great but the information density is very poor and requires you to scroll all over to find the main thing you want out of a task manager which is βwhat are the most important things that I need to do today and in which order should I work on themβ. See the Support button or review www.pmpsbff.com for more detailed information. PMP'S BFF is a companion app for the Mac App PMP's Best Friend. It is tailored for quick review and entry while the Mac program works better for lots of data entry and administrative tasks such as mass update, import/export, and save/restore. With this app, you can: # Quickly review top tasks on the list and easily make notes against them, mark them as done, and create follow on tasks # Very fast entry of new apps with a single button to put default settings of the task into an inbox for further review and includes audio data entry #. Connect with other iPhone, iPad, and Mac sessions and share data All in all, a good companion piece to supplement the Mac version of this PIM. Check out www.pmpsbestfriend.com for more detailed information or search for the app on the Mac app store.

Systems β Never Forget a Step Again Most mistakes do not happen because you do not know what to do. They happen because one small step gets missed. You leave for work and forget your charger. You hand over a rental property and forget to photograph the utility meters. You prepare an Airbnb and forget to restock the coffee. You launch a website and forget to test the contact form. You deliver a client project and forget to send the invoice. Systems helps you capture repeatable workflows so nothing gets overlooked. Instead of relying on memory, sticky notes, scattered documents, or rebuilding the same checklist over and over, create a System once and run it whenever you need it. A System can be anything: β’ A morning routine β’ A travel packing list β’ A client onboarding process β’ An Airbnb turnover workflow β’ A website launch checklist β’ A restaurant opening procedure β’ A monthly bookkeeping process Why Systems Works To-do lists are for one-time tasks.
