Welcome to episode 12 of Freelance Gems! I'm your host, Isabel, web designer and founder of Squarespace template shop for online service providers, Opal Templates.
Today I'm sharing 10 of my favorite ways to upgrade, streamline and organize my business with Notion, the famous productivity app that every Youtuber has a template for.
I wanted to make this in case you're in need of some biz organization (I think we all are) and if you're Notion-curious, because there's a lot of hype around this app but not always a simple breakdown of what you can actually use it for! Hopefully this gives you some organization inspo, and if you want to start from a template, I have a website planner and marketing planner made just for Notion :)MY MARKETING PLAN NOTION TEMPLATE
