How Notion Can Organize Your Business

The Creative Brain Never Stops

As creatives, our brains rarely stop spinning. One day it’s a new art collection idea, the next it’s a client deadline, and in between it’s invoices, blog drafts, and marketing plans. It’s exciting, but also overwhelming.

Finding a System That Works

I’ve tried dozens of systems over the years. None of them stuck until I built my first dashboard in Notion. Unlike other tools, Notion doesn’t force you into one way of working. It’s flexible, customizable, and adaptable to the way your brain works.

My Notion Dashboard Setup

Here’s what my Notion setup includes:

  • Ideas Bank: Dump every concept, sketch, or phrase that comes to mind.
  • Project Tracker: Keep deadlines, deliverables, and client updates organized.
  • Artwork Archive: Store images, notes, and links to mockups.
  • Marketing Calendar: See launches and posts at a glance.
  • Resource Library: Collect color palettes, trend notes, and references.
 

The result? A single hub where everything I need is connected and easy to find — like a virtual studio assistant that keeps me organized.

Flexibility for Every Work Style

The beauty of Notion is that it’s adaptable. If you’re more visual, you can create boards. If you like lists, you can use tables. It bends to the way your brain works, not the other way around.

Gaining Control Over Your Creative Business

For me, it’s been the first tool that actually made me feel like I had control over both the business side and the creative side. No more scattered notes or missed deadlines, everything lives in one place.

More Than Just an App

Notion isn’t just another app. It’s a customizable workspace that grows with you and your creative business. Download your guide below for automating your processes in Notion.
