Holidays Cards for free

Start by creating a board and adding all of your coworkers, then make a column labeled “Important Info.” The next column can be “I’m Donating…” where coworkers can create a card for items they are going to bring and add themselves to it. When the donation has been brought in you can move the card to the “I’ve Donated!” list.

Streamline Gift Giving

Many companies choose to send holiday gifts to valued clients. Use a Trello board to organize things like ideas for gifts, what has been ordered, and the date that items will be received. Consider using labels to represent a few different types of gifts, and assign the label to the appropriate card. If clients send a thank you note, you can also snap a photo and attach it to the card, thereby creating a repository of information for next year when you wonder which clients received gifts and how much you spent.

Strategize Cleaning

This idea comes to us from Twitter, where Brian Kelly shared a picture of his holiday home cleaning board. Before the relatives arrive, Trello can help you identify what cleaning needs to get done, and then subsequently divide and conquer. In this case, make a list for each room in your home, then create cards for specific cleaning tasks. You can then assign cards to each family member and add a due date so they know exactly what needs to be done and when.
