There’s several New Years Resolutions that never fail to be brought up at this time of year “Get the house in order”, “Start going to the gym”… but the one on our minds at M Marketing this year is: “Get Organized”! Project management tools are incredibly helpful, especially when you work with a team who may not all share the same office space every day. Just this past year we dove headfirst into the world of PM tools and found ourselves using Click Up to keep all of our resources and to do lists in one place. Click Up is great, Monday.com and Asana are great too – Here is a list of some of the top PM tools used in the workplace today, join us in our resolution to stay on top of our organization this year!
