Common Pitfalls to Avoid

Don't Do This
Over-customize boards initially (causes analysis paralysis)
Build complex automations before team understands basics
Skip the trial period and purchase immediately
Forget to set up mobile app (team needs on-the-go access)
Do This Instead
Start with template, customize based on actual usage patterns
Use manually for 2 weeks, then automate repetitive tasks
Run full 14-day trial with real workflows before buying
Help team install mobile app during training session
