What you need.
WHAT IS ACTUALLY NECESSARY
A way to communicate A way to share files A way to track tasks A way to pay them
WHAT IS NOT
An elaborate set of tools nobody uses.

FOR FILES
Shared cloud storage, with clear organisation.
FOR TASKS
A shared list. A document or spreadsheet suffices for a small team.
WHAT TO ESTABLISH

Without it, files accumulate and nobody can find anything.
WHAT TO PROVIDE
Access to the tools, and instruction on how you use them.
WHAT TO CONSIDER

Large file transfers and video calls are expensive on mobile data.
