Challenge: How to Prioritize Your Marketing Tasks in 2025
As we wind down the year, the questions we’ll ask the most are, “What milestones did I reach and what challenges did I overcome in 2024?”
We all need a plan to achieve our goals. Unfortunately, one of our challenges as entrepreneurs is finding enough time to get everything done.
Hence, task prioritization, or identifying your most important work.
For those DIYing their marketing, important work includes:
- Acquiring clients and customers
- Building an audience
- Setting up marketing channels such as your website, SEO, email, social media
- Analyzing your metrics
- Creating content for your website, email and social media
- Networking with potential clients in person and online
- Creating sales funnels so that prospects are guided to a purchase.

Techniques include the Priority Matrix, which helps you identify tasks that are important, not urgent, versus those which are urgent not important.
There’s also the ABCDE method, which identifies A tasks to E tasks; tasks you must do, or tasks you should eliminate.
Solution: Tools to help you prioritize your tasks
You can:
- Set up a dashboard in Notion to track overarching goals and break them into daily tasks.
- Use a board or task list in Trello or Asana to prioritize daily goals.
- Use Todoist to quickly organize and prioritize tasks you should focus on.
However, when you’re short on time for marketing, mastering task management tools can be a challenge.
Here’s my recommendation for entrepreneurs who are short on time:
- Use Trello if: You’re a visual thinker and want a simple way to track progress across multiple projects.
- Use Todoist if: You want to focus purely on task completion with minimal setup.
- Use Notion if: You want an all-in-one tool to manage tasks, track goals, and organize ideas, and you’re willing to spend extra time setting it up.
You can set up an account for free at: Todoist.com.
