    I use a Kanban board to manage my
  • 00:00:01
    projects let me show you how hi everyone
  • 00:00:11
    thank you for joining me today my name
  • 00:00:12
    is Ed choy if you're new to my channel
  • 00:00:14
    please consider subscribing in my
  • 00:00:15
    channel I talk about everything to do
  • 00:00:17
    with the office and today I'm talking to
  • 00:00:19
    you about how to set up a Kanban board
  • 00:00:21
    now I use a Kanban board to manage my
  • 00:00:23
    projects and my most recent project is
  • 00:00:25
    creating an e-commerce store called
  • 00:00:27
    aviation wife's comm so I decided to
  • 00:00:29
    kind of mock this up for you to show you
  • 00:00:31
    how I go about setting this up it's very
  • 00:00:33
    very easy first off you'll need to mark
  • 00:00:36
    a grid line like this so once I set up
  • 00:00:39
    the grid line into my to-do in progress
  • 00:00:41
    and completed into these three columns i
  • 00:00:43
    sat down and i categorized the things
  • 00:00:46
    that i needed to do the four categories
  • 00:00:48
    that i came up with was money related
  • 00:00:50
    administrative marketing and sales from
  • 00:00:53
    there I brainstormed a whole bunch of
  • 00:00:55
    ideas in terms of what I needed to do
  • 00:00:57
    get going and this is kind of what I
  • 00:00:59
    came up with now Kanban is used for
  • 00:01:02
    short term projects so this is something
  • 00:01:04
    that I did in a 30 day span so once the
  • 00:01:07
    30 days is over and these tasks are
  • 00:01:08
    completed I'll come up with a new set of
  • 00:01:10
    tasks to do in the next 30 days so in
  • 00:01:14
    terms of how the Kanban works if I have
  • 00:01:16
    something that I want to knock off on my
  • 00:01:19
    to-do list it's pretty simple I just
  • 00:01:21
    take the post-it note and put it in my
  • 00:01:23
    in progress section you can have several
  • 00:01:26
    things on the go like this and once
  • 00:01:31
    something is completed guess what
  • 00:01:34
    it goes into the completed section it's
  • 00:01:36
    super easy to do another thing I like to
  • 00:01:38
    do is use post-it flags to denote
  • 00:01:40
    anything that requires a lot of
  • 00:01:42
    attention or I'll put a flag next to
  • 00:01:44
    something where I cry a little bit more
  • 00:01:46
    help so this is a very easy way of
  • 00:01:48
    managing a project now I know there's
  • 00:01:50
    tons of software tools out there to
  • 00:01:52
    manage projects but here's why I like a
  • 00:01:54
    Kanban board the Kanban board when I
  • 00:01:56
    walk into my office it's in my face I
  • 00:01:58
    know how far I am in my project just by
  • 00:02:01
    looking at the state of the project by
  • 00:02:04
    it
  • 00:02:04
    how many post-it notes are my two new
  • 00:02:05
    section versus my in progress versus my
  • 00:02:07
    completed it's a visual reminder of how
  • 00:02:10
    well my project is progressing and so
  • 00:02:13
    yes the software tools out there are
  • 00:02:16
    great there's really really good
  • 00:02:17
    resources out there but the problem is
  • 00:02:19
    that I actually have to open up my
  • 00:02:21
    computer log in to my tool and I know
  • 00:02:23
    that sounds easy but there's something
  • 00:02:25
    to be said about the simplicity of a
  • 00:02:27
    Kanban board on your wall to track your
  • 00:02:30
    progress so this is a very simple and I
  • 00:02:32
    actually think it's kind of a fun way of
  • 00:02:34
    managing your project if you have a
  • 00:02:36
    project management method that you like
  • 00:02:38
