I’m a contractor and sometimes I find it hard to manage all my tasks. How do you organize your day? Do you use a planner, digital tools, or a simple to-do list? Would love to hear what works for you!
I use a combination of a printed day plan and digital reminders. I start each morning with a rough list of tasks and then check my phone calendar for alerts. It helps me keep track without feeling overwhelmed.
I review my jobs and set my priorities first thing each morning. I use my phone to check appointments and assign time for tasks. I also block a few minutes mid-day to check on invoices and make sure things are up to date. This simple routine makes sure nothing slips through while working on the job site.
i kick off my day with a quick planning session on my phone to schedule jobs and set reminders for client follow-ups, then i keep an eye on payments and invoices during brief breaks so nothing slips through, which really helps me stay on track.
I order my tasks in priority chunks, mixing paper notes with digital reminders and quick invoice checks on the go.
I start my day by checking the schedule on my phone. I use a digital calendar mainly to block time for appointments and job tasks. I keep a running list of what needs to be done and adjust it if something unexpected comes up. If I’m reviewing invoices during the day I use the tools on my phone so I can handle things quickly and keep everything moving.
