Hi everyone!
I am driving for dollars but at this point it is an unorganized mess! What are the best ways to stay organized so that we can optimize our driving times?
@David Marsceau Excel is probably the go-to for many people but I can only speak for myself. I am yet to get out and drive through neighborhoods but have recently made an effort to be prepared to track this information. I saw a video on YouTube and did some other reading and ended up creating a spreadsheet to track properties visited. I would check out YouTube for some advice or I can PM you what I have and you can tweak it or use it outright or use it as a template to create your own spreadsheet. Let me know.
Thanks @Bob Okenwa and how would you cross off routes/streets you have already driven down ? I heard on a BP podcast someone say they used a physical map and blew it up and put it on the wall in their office. Only problem is I live with my sister in a small condo right now so no place for a large map like that. Any thoughts on other ways to do that? Maybe something digitally?
I read an article either on BP or somewhere else about a guy who said he printed a map and with a highlighter, physically plotted his course. Very low-tech I know, but it got the job done for him. As for digital, I'm sure there is some GPS location-traveled app available to let you know where you've been.
looks like for now until I figure out something better that is what I'll have to do :) I will search for an app that may help with this and post it on here if I find something like that. Thanks for the imput @Bob Okenwa
