Hi Reader 👋 New: Listen to this email​ I’m at my day job building out a ClickUp dashboard to try and make sense of all the tasks, deadlines, team progress. And then I stumble upon this card, and it’s called the Who’s Behind card. This card shows “Inbox unread notifications” and “Total overdue tasks” for each user in the workspace. When I went and had a look at it and actually saw the data, it was kind of shocking. Out of the 18 people in the workspace in my day job, 6 of them (an entire third!) had 100+ unread notifications sitting in their ClickUp inboxes. This explained why ClickUp hadn’t been working too well recently as a way to communicate. Can you imagine all the chaos? You get all these updates, people asking questions, people trying to assign you tasks… And then none of the work actually gets done. None of the questions get answered. People just have too many notifications. This is why people keep falling back on apps like Slack and Teams for discussing tickets and ideas So what I’ve done is I’ve made a five-minute video on how I’ve set up my notifications in ClickUp and the process that I think everyone in the team needs to go through to set up their own notifications. I’m sending this out to the workspace now, but I’m going to put it here in the newsletter as well. And this is very ClickUp focused, but the idea still stands. No matter and what app you’re using, you can set up your notifications in a way that suits you. For me, that means:
