The best tools to help your year stay on track
As a busy entrepreneur, being able to manage your time and stay organised is key to achieving your goals when you have multiple projects and tasks on the go. Investing in a good project management system, whether it’s to keep your own workload in check or to help you better manage your team, is an easy way to take back control and ensure you never miss an important deadline.
Try our pick of the top tools available now and see how much more efficient and productive you can be:
1. Monday.com
Monday.com can be used for task, project and team management, making it a handy resource as your business grows. You can create dedicated boards for each project, group tasks and to-dos, assign work to others, set deadlines, share files and check in on progress at a glance.
The platform promises easy set up with workflow creation in minutes, and it provides hundreds of free to use templates, all pulled from real users. The visual nature of this tool also means training for new recruits should be minimal, increasing productivity and removing complications.
2. Asana
Available for web and smartphone, Asana works well for both remote and in-office teams. Like Monday, Asana works with boards, for at-a-glance updates of tasks and deadlines. You can also use these boards to assign to dos or entire projects to team members as well as set deadlines and share files.
Feature rich, Asana packs in lots of functionality such as the ability to set goals, create and share forms, monitor workloads, build timelines and automate routine tasks.
You can choose from four different packages with options suited to very small businesses and single person projects up to enterprise level.
3. ClickUp
ClickUp says that it is so efficient that its users save one day per week, guaranteed. Infinitely customisable, you can tailor ClickUp to your exact needs with custom status options aligned with each project time, multiple templates and checklists. You can assign tasks to multiple people, define task dependencies so you can quickly see where bottlenecks are holding up projects, set goals, track time, schedule reminders, workloads and milestones for ongoing projects.
The sheer amount of features and freedom to customise does mean that onboarding time is a little longer than with Asana and Monday as there is so much more to get to grips with.

For modern entrepreneurs, building a sustainable business model is no longer just about chasing the next big sale. The future belongs to recurring revenue — a model that allows you to earn predictable, ongoing income month after month. And for those looking to build freedom, flexibility, and financial stability, it’s a game-changer.
For anyone launching a digital agency today, the smartest move is to start with a business-in-a-box solution like Eazi-Business. It’s not just a tool—it’s a complete solution built to help entrepreneurs hit the ground running, even with no prior tech experience. Here’s the streamlined, modern tech stack Eazi-Business recommends for new agency owners:
Your homepage is your agency’s first handshake. If it’s unclear, cluttered, or generic—you’re losing potential clients in seconds. Here's what your homepage actually needs to convert visitors into leads. 1. A Headline That Tells Them What You Do “Helping local businesses grow with mobile apps and digital tools.” Make it specific, client-focused, and benefit-driven. If it could apply to anyone, it applies to no one. 2. A Strong Subheadline That Builds Trust “Trusted by 1,000+ entrepreneurs across 20 countries.” This is your social proof shortcut. Numbers work. So do logos and testimonials. 3. A Visual That Shows the Result Use mockups, screenshots, or lifestyle photos. Help visitors see what they’ll get—a mobile app, a dashboard, a website, a client smiling. 4. A Short List of Benefits (Not Features) Launch your digital presence fast No tech skills required Support and tools included Keep it tight. Think “what’s in it for me?” from the client’s point of view. 5. A Clear Call to Action (CTA) “Book a free call” “Get your launch pack” “See what’s possible” CTAs should stand out visually and be repeated 2–3 times on the page. 6. A Simple Contact Form or Button Make it easy to get in touch or book. Remove friction. Don’t ask for more than name, email, and one question. Pro tip: You don’t need to design from scratch. The Eazi-Business Business-in-a-Box gives you ready-made homepage templates with proven structure, persuasive copy blocks, and branding flexibility. Use our pre-built website framework to launch with confidence and convert faster.
