the notion template that runs my business

This is the workspace I actually run my video business out of. Every client, project, shoot date, price sheet and checklist lives in one place, so nothing gets lost between the first email and the final invoice.

Duplicate it into your own Notion in one click and change whatever you want. It's free, there's no email form, and I'll keep adding to this page as I clean up more of my own systems.

THE CONTRACT TO KEEP ME SAFE.
