Communicating/Coordinating tasks with BOTG
What are you using to assign tasks to your BOTG and keep track of status? Emails and Texts get lost so looking for something we can both track and edit as items are assigned and completed. Bonus if it can notify when tasks are created and when tasks are completed.

Look at creating agents and script files to do that for you and set up trackers. Be very specific about what you want to do what you want to monitor and how you wanted to do it. You can have it monitor your email account or your forms and completions and what needs to be done. I automated pretty much everything, but I keep tabs on everything and I asked for updates and status updates on stuff just to confirm.

Tommy, here's a free tracker you can set up in about 10 minutes with a Google Sheet. You and your BOTG both work in the same sheet. When you assign a task, they get an email. When they mark it Done, you get an email. Anything overdue gets a reminder every morning. STEP 1: Open a new Google Sheet and rename the bottom tab to: Tasks STEP 2: Type these headers in row 1, one per column (A to H): Task | Property | Due Date | Notes | Assigned To | Status | Created | Completed STEP 3: Select the Status column, go to Data > Data validation, and make a dropdown with: Open, In Progress, Done STEP 4: Share the sheet with your BOTG as an Editor. STEP 5: Go to Extensions > Apps Script. Delete everything there, paste in the script below, change the first line to your email, and click Save. STEP 6: In the dropdown at the top, pick "setup", click Run, and approve the permissions. You only do this once. HOW TO USE IT: Fill in a row left to right and put your BOTG's email in "Assigned To" last. That sends them the task. When they set Status to Done, you get an email. ----- COPY EVERYTHING BELOW THIS LINE ----- var OWNER = '[email protected]'; var SHEET = 'Tasks'; function fmt(d) { return d ? Utilities.formatDate(new Date(d), Session.getScriptTimeZone(), 'MMM d, yyyy') : 'no date'; } function onTaskEdit(e) { var sh = e.range.getSheet(); if (sh.getName() !== SHEET || e.range.getRow() < 2) return; var row = e.range.getRow(); var v = sh.getRange(row, 1, 1, 8).getValues()[0]; var task = v[0], prop = v[1], due = v[2], notes = v[3], who = v[4], status = v[5], created = v[6], done = v[7]; var link = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getUrl(); if (task && who && !created) { sh.getRange(row, 7).setValue(new Date()); if (!status) sh.getRange(row, 6).setValue('Open'); MailApp.sendEmail(who, 'New task: ' + task, 'Property: ' + prop + '\nDue: ' + fmt(due) + '\nNotes: ' + notes + '\n\nMark it Done here when finished:\n' + link);

🚨 Quick Favor – Help Me Help You 🚨
As many of you know, I host free live calls every Tuesday and Thursday to help aspiring storage investors learn how to get started and take real steps toward their first deal. I’d love to make an even bigger impact by getting more of you on these calls live. My hunch? The 10am MST time might not work for your schedule — especially if you're still working a W-2. So I’d love to know… what time would work for you? It takes 30 seconds, and your input helps me schedule these calls when you can show up, learn, ask questions, and get closer to your first facility. 🙌 👉 Link to Survey Thanks so much — I truly appreciate it!
