I also have one note for “Ideas” for every article, and one note for the finished piece.

Within this notebook, I have one “Research” note for every article where I file quotes, statistics and material related to the article topic. Let’s take a look at an example from “Project Support”: When I started writing for Craft Industry Alliance (CIA), I created a new notebook called “CIA”.

“To be processed” contains everything that I still need to file within Evernote.Now I have five stacks that provide the framework for my Evernote work: I’ve gone through quite a few iterations of my Evernote setup, but the one that I’ve found works best for my creative business takes full advantage of the first feature, “stack”-ability. If you upgrade to a Premium account, you can even search within PDFs you saved in Evernote! You can find whatever you search for within seconds. Search: Evernote’s search is one of the most powerful in-app searches I’ve come across.All of these sync seamlessly with each other which ensures that you’re always looking at the latest version, no matter which device you work from. You can also work with it via your browser and use browser extensions (like for saving PDFs or clipping screenshots from websites). Synchronisation: Evernote has a desktop app that I’m using when I’m working on my laptop, and a really good smartphone app.Evernote does exactly that – you can “stack” notes into one notebook, and you can “stack” several notebooks into an overarching folder (called “stack” in Evernote). I want folders, and folders within those folders.
