Apps are hot productivity tips for entrepreneurs. But do they work? We review some of the most popular tools, including when (or if!) you need them.

Productivity Tips for Entrepreneurs Episode Summary

Productivity, especially for entrepreneurs is often a big challenge. This is where productivity apps, gadgets, and tools come in. But do they work?

In this episode, we go over the pros and cons of some of the most popular tools and techniques, including when (or if!) you need to use an app to help you get the job done.

We also discuss some of the most popular productivity apps and tools, including Trello, Todoist, Evernote, Google Tasks, and more. Learn the good and the bad of the apps, and how they can be used to achieve better productivity.

Words of Wisdom

You have all the productivity tools you need to manage your projects and to manage your tasks already. You don't need to go outside of the things that you are given when you sign up for your Google Workspace or Office 365. These are called productivity tools for a reason — they're powerhouses. — Jen
Does the productivity tool promote a feeling that you're in control? I think that's it right there in a nutshell. Am I feeling in control of my schedule? Of my time? If somebody calls me up and says, do you have time to talk this week? I can open up my calendar and I can say, yes, let's do a two o'clock on Thursday. — Shelley

5:22 Amazon Amp and Good News for Ranking on Google

  • Amazon’s Amp builds on—and deviates from—the Clubhouse playbook
  • Website Quality Score: Is It A Google Ranking Factor? At a high level, it means creating well-researched, high-quality content and Google will reward you for it. Less is more. There are a lot of people who tout create, create, create — and people now using AI to auto-generate content. This runs counter to that argument (and I think it's a good thing).

  1. Update on scheduled YouTube Livestream trailers: Live-stream creators will be able to add trailers via YouTube's Live Control Room, with the option available to all channels with at least 1,000 subscribers and zero strikes.
  2. We recently redesigned the YouTube Studio mobile app from the ground up. With a new interface that allows you to navigate with fewer taps, and a ton of new features that make it easier for you to manage your channel on the go, we think you’ll love it! A few of the exciting updates:
  3. A new navigation bar to help you quickly access the Dashboard, Content, Analytics, Comments, and Playlists tabs
  4. More data in YouTube Analytics, including a personalized summary of your channel performance, additional revenue data, and additional audience metrics to give you insights into who is watching your content
  5. New search filters for comments that make it easier to find certain types of comments you want to reply to
  6. The ability to appeal a “yellow icon“ monetization decision using your phone. If you already have the Studio Mobile app all you need to do is update it to ensure you have the latest version. If you’re new to the Studio Mobile app please download it to start managing your channel from anywhere.
