Wonderful tips, Laurie!
Working remotely has its pros and cons.
You can have more time for yourself, enjoy the flexibility, and wear whatever you want. But you may also feel quite lonely and lack motivation.
One of the biggest problems is that it is hard finding the best remote work tools for your work. It it also better if the tools have integrations with each other.
My team ended up using Quire for task management, and Slack for communication. We also use Zoom for video meetings.

I'm also a Quire user! I agree finding the right project management tool is very hard. My team is divided into two different countries and we were struggling with communication, schedule, and trust issues. But after we finally build trust, work on our roles, and use a comprehensive tool, we are on track and unstoppable! One of the best tips to boost remote team productivity was having a 1:1 review session with my team member to encourage strong bonds among team members and provide support as needed.
