This will be a 4 part series delving on a Project Management System, an Online Virtual Storage Utility, a Password Management Program, and a Time Management Program and how it is linked together to help you make sure that you get all of your work done on time. Either you are a Virtual Assistant working for a client or a Team Leader working on a project or a small business owner that outsources its business, this one is for you.

Let’s start with Part 1: Project Management System.

For many Virtual Assistants the project planning tasks that go along with freelancing may seem kind of overwhelming especially if they’ve never done any project planning. Other Virtual Assistants may find that they need to provide the same kind of project plans to their clients that would have been required of them in the corporate world. Either way, project planning can be a lot of extra work. The project planning task is difficult to handle without good tools to work with.

Project management tools are very important for the successful implementation of any project. They promote effective communication within the business structure. Communication being the most important requirement for the success of a project, this tool is a must in today’s connected world.

Enter BasecampHQ. BasecampHQ is the world’s leading online Project Management Software that helps in project collaboration. It is a dynamic and versatile web-based project management tool that everyone can use with ease. BasecampHQ is an online tool to create and manage projects. A project includes To-Dos, Messages, Files, Milestones, and People. New project are created within minutes. People working on a project automatically get an email notification when a new post is added to a project. Instead of emailing each other for every task all information is well documented in one place.

The system is simple but this is why it is so powerful. New users can usually start using the tool immediately without any real instruction but I have prepared a “HOW TO” to make life a little more easier.
