Get your to-dos completely
Under control with The MasterList

The MasterList is a technological leap forward in to-do planning. Picture your to-dos organized as projects and sorted by dates and priorities. Imagine pulling up your daily to-do list and reducing it in seconds to a manageable subset. Once you've triaged your to-do list, Work It! The MasterList brings to-dos, email, documents, websites, and notes for any project together at a single screen. Feel the satisfaction of checking off what you’ve done and sending it to history.

What The MasterList will do for you.

The MasterList is an easy-to-learn project organizer that puts your related tasks and ideas for all your projects in a simple to-do list for each project. You can see your entire task load in many ways. By what you need to do on any given day. By project. By task. By person. By calendar.

You can instantly link-in documents, internet research sites, phone and activity notes, power point presentations, spreadsheets and emails directly to the project where they belong. When a task comes up, such as: “work on report”, the report itself, the spreadsheets and the websites needed to do the report are all right there. It’s easy to get to work fast and to know where you left off last time.

The MasterList sets the standard for managing everyday workflow issues, interruptions, and changes in direction. With The MasterList you are always on track.

When you click on My Day you will see a cross section of everything you have scheduled for yourself to do across all your projects. You can quickly and realistically make judgments about priorities with our color-coded priority tool and our time-blaster, to isolate just what you need to work on, separated from the rest. Choose what provides you the most benefit to your life and work and set the rest aside for later, using our priority tools. You can work on those some other time, a time of your choosing, when our system will bring them back for your consideration.

A tool that can realistically help you figure out what tasks represent the most productive use of your time is the holy grail of time management. The MasterList is the tool that will help you maximize your goals, your results, your work, and your peace of mind.

You can always see the entire plan for any project, as well as a chronological history of what’s been done, together with the associated knowledge base of documents, spreadsheets, links, notes, and email at a single screen.

Not only can you increase productivity for yourself, but The MasterList network version is a superior team tool. Team members can move multiple projects along, sharing screen views, to-do lists, and links while gaining a common benefit out of the priority structure built into the system.

Dynamic Components of the MasterList.

  • Plan, move and resequence to-do’s, by date, in relation to other tasks
  • Blast 1 or more to-do’s from today’s list into the future, to be done later
  • Color code tasks to visually attract your attention and to prioritize
  • Move to-do’s from one project to another
  • Save completed tasks to a project history
  • Sort tasks into different lists by type, date, worker, category or group
  • Within a project link in anything your computer can see: folder, application, URL address, single document, power point, mind map
  • Record conversations and activities pertaining to different people
  • Keep lots of notes per project that relate to diverse players and plans

The MasterList is a system for making realistic choices.
You need a dynamic tool to keep up with your dynamic life style. The MasterList allows you to make dynamic choices that allow you to jump on to your work load, keep up, and get ahead as opposed to software systems that force you to play catch-up all the time. You are at your best when you make choices and control changes about how to work, what to work on, and who should work on various components of a project. The MasterList not only lets you do that, it HELPS you do that.

As fast as the project evolves or changes, you can change the MasterList to meet those new challenges.
Other to-do list programs, such as Outlook (which MasterList integrates with and thus improves upon) mix all to-do’s together into a relatively formless lump. On the flip side, programs like MS Project are so rigid that fast changes to meet rapidly changing circumstances are difficult to implement and projects can actually get bogged down by requiring too much adherence to the “original script”. Likewise, enterprise systems allow no leeway for creativity.

If you are the kind of manager who is not a cog and won’t and can’t be a cog, The MasterList is a program that gears you up without making you one of the gears. It’s a tool. Your tool. It probably will be your best and most favorite tool ever. But, it serves you, not the other way around.

Our users say they don’t know what they did before they got our software. They are happier. Their clients are happier. Their colleagues are jealous. How do they do it? What’s their secret? It’s the MasterList.

Who uses The MasterList.

The MasterList is used by time-management experts, software and network consultants, marketing experts, investment bankers, engineers, lawyers (we began as a case management system for attorneys), factory managers, business managers, politicians, scientists, medical researchers, artisans, writers, teachers, and just plain folks, on both the professional and personal side of their lives, who have a need to keep all their to-do’s in plain sight and accounted for as they forge ahead to accomplish their goals.
