Read the longer online version of this week's newsletter here. I've been playing with ClickUp AI a lot lately and discovered some really useful things that it can do. I'll talk about AI agents in a future issue (check out a preview of the work on LinkedIn). But today I want to give you a prompt that saved me hours last week. If you're managing multiple clients in ClickUp, you need a quick way to get an overview of each one. Usually this involves delving into the tasks, seeing what meetings have happened, and writing up a report. But we've all got better things to do with our time.

4. Client Sentiment & Key Communications:
5. Upcoming Priorities & Action Items:
6. Opportunities:

You need a space for your team to collaborate, revise, and handle all the internal back-and-forth. But you want your client's view to be clean, simple, and professional. They don't need them seeing your internal notes of, "ergh why are they asking for another revision!?" This quick automation creates a perfect separation between your...
So yeah, we’re all chasing that same dream. Having one app to rule them all. A single, perfect system where our tasks, projects, and all our awesome ideas can live and work together in perfect harmony. But what if that dream is actually a trap? What if putting everything in one bucket, especially a project management tool like ClickUp (which I love), is quietly sabotaging your most valuable asset? That asset is your thinking. This is why I practice something I call The ‘Second Brain’ Split....

You’re pouring hours into client work, only to look at the books and wonder where the real profit is. I’m finishing up a ClickUp implementation for a client and the final time log gave me a bit of a reality check: 50 hours 👀 That was… more than I initially planned for. I track every minute of my time...
