We were lucky to catch up with Todd Allan recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Todd, really happy you were able to join us today and we’re looking forward to sharing your story and insights with our readers. Let’s start with the heart of it all – purpose. How did you find your purpose?
In my work with clients, I focus on seeing them become more focused on what matters in their lives through the intelligent use of their digital tools. This goes back to my curiosity about how people managed their lives in productive ways, dating back to the days of the Day Runner and Franklin Planner. This is one track; the other is a massive curiosity about technology. My first computer was right at the beginning of the personal computer wave. Since then, I’ve experimented with many technology platforms, including Windows/Microsoft, Apple, and Google. I’ve combined those two tracks into my clients’ systems and processes.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
I work with entrepreneurs and individuals with 10 or fewer team members to leverage their digital tools productively and effectively to save time and focus on what matters in their personal and professional lives. I’m well versed in all leading platforms today, but specialize in Google Workspace organizing and deployment. My work is primarily virtual, but I meet with specific clients in person.
I utilize several processes that have proven results in creating a healthy relationship with clients and their tools. I work with the clients to customize these processes into their natural workflows to result in client-specific results.
Looking back, what do you think were the three qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that were most impactful in your journey? What advice do you have for folks who are early in their journey in terms of how they can best develop or improve on these?
First is having a natural ability to notice patterns in how clients work to simplify their work. Next is love and deep curiosity in technology and how new tools can enhance my client’s work, and finally, being a parent of three successful kids, developing my empathy through putting others first gives me the skill of meeting clients where they are in a non-judgmental way.
Awesome, really appreciate you opening up with us today and before we close maybe you can share a book recommendation with us. Has there been a book that’s been impactful in your growth and development?
The most impactful book I’ve read is The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. The habits have stood the test of time and are relevant today. The habit that has had the biggest influence in my life has been “Begin With The End in Mind”. Working with clients to focus on what they ultimately want gives us a blueprint for how to work together
