Further Reading and Resources to Become a More Efficient and Productive Blogger

The to do list app I mention - wunderlist
The calendar I use from my phone, computer and watch - Fantastical 2
The tool I use for writing and sorting content - Evernote
The tool I use for team communication - Slack
The social media management tool I use - Meet Edgar

Also - here is the 'ideal schedule' that I developed for my own situation earlier this year. It has already evolved a little since this point but hopefully it's helpful to see. It was created in a Google Calendar.



Lastly - as promised in the episode here is my process for creating podcasts (created in wunderlist)!
