As a small business owner, budgets are tight for the ‘extras’. Oftentimes this means affording some of those high dollar tools for marketing is not possible. Small business owners must turn to free or low cost alternatives, sometimes those tools can be better than the high dollar tools. One easy to use and manageable alternative is a free spreadsheet program called Google Sheets. In this project, you’ll learn how to create a simple project management tracker. By the end of this project, you will have Google Sheets project management tracker template for your next development project presentation.
