    Trying to relate it to Project Management, it was difficult to understand what boards, cards and lists etc related to in managing projects. Is a Board a project? Is a card a task? I would have liked to have understood examples of the various uses that Trello could be used for (types of projects) and then walked through setting up a project with tasks, due dates, who the task assigned to, etc. Didn't get what Power-Ups were exactly. Understanding if there are any limitations would have been good, as well as how it worked/integrated with any other applications.

    I've had a Trello account for years but stopped using it because I sometimes lost my lists. I recently revived my account and appreciate Susan't overview. Sorry it wasn't around a few years ago when I was so frustrated. Most likely, I would have been enjoying the benefits of Trello for years instead of thinking it wasn't the tool for me. Thanks Susan!

    I have played around with Trello for a couple of years and I am just now beginning to use it on mobile. I thought the overview was awesome in depth with out being overwhelming. Only thing that I would like to see added to this or perhaps even a different short tutorial, would be how to create workflows in Trello that are helpful for VAs, especially for those of us who are more than mildly ADHD. I loved what I saw on the boards that Susan had, it was absolutely the pinnacle of organization and I would love to get there too.
