As I break a project down, it always seems that it's really a bunch of
smaller projects (sub projects). This is very very helpful to making a
project manageable in pieces <30m. (See example at end of this post).
But these sub-projects are often very sequential. I can't find a way
to show them in the To-Do list and preserve that sequence.
How do you folks deal with sub-projects and making them show up in the
right order?
WHAT I'VE TRIED
When I view them in the To-Do list there are basically two options:
1. If I made the sub-project an actual "project" then the sub-projects
get listed (often) out of order.
2. If I don't make the sub-project a project (i.e., it's just another
task) it doesn't get listed (only it's subtending tasks). This is very
confusing because the sub-project's tasks often aren't clear without
seeing their parent (sub-project).
I'm currently using the Group By at : Top-level-parent, Project,
Parent
But... it forces them to be sorted (alphabetically I guess) which
still changes their order. Similar problem to #1 above.
So I end up with something like:
1. Improve Website conversion rates (Project)
a. Install Google Analytics (Shows up in To-Do ONLY if it's a
project)
(1) Read instructions on GA
(2) Get the tracking code for GA
(3) copy tracking code to website.
b. Set up A/B Split testing
(1)
c. Brainstorm ideas for improving conversion ratio:
(1) Use buttons for download trial link and buy trial CD.
(2) blah blah
Thanks!
