Yes, i’ve found a couple of apps that really work well for this. This is why I’m always going to coffee shops, I don’t need the interaction, but its the energy and vibe that helps me to get into focus mode. 

I’m thinking about adding a parallel coworking session for marketers dispersed through a bunch of franchised offices under my corporate umbrella. The more I read about them, the better an idea that seems! Do you have any do’s or don’ts to share ​@jenx2y ​@TAMAYS?

Ouu yes I love to do this too! I work a remote job and sometimes my colleagues and I will set up “work sessions” on Teams where we just log on and work together. This can be super helpful if you have a project you’re working on together especially because if something comes up, I can just ask rather than waiting for an email response, during which time I may get distracted completely from the task.

​@Brittany Taylor I would say a loose structure is the most important thing. 15 min of going around saying what you are going to work on and an agreed upon time to come back any where from 45-90 min. Then just keep cycling through. Coming back during the breaks people can share what they accomplished or where they got stuck. Since it’s under the same franchise you can have a separate breakout room for people to go and talk and get the opinion of a peer if needed as they work through something. The biggest thing is that it shouldn't delve into coaching or support. This is strictly get it done time. 

Thank you so much ​@TAMAYS! This is so, so helpful!
