If you're looking to optimize your workflow and streamline your projects, Notion templates are an excellent way to start. This guide will walk you through how to download, install, and start using a Notion template in just a few easy steps.

Step 1: Find the Right Template

Before you begin, you need to find the best Notion template that fits your needs. Notion templates come in a variety of categories, including:

  • Personal organization templates (Budget planners, journals, goal-setting templates)

You can find these within the Notion Marketplace along with individual shops.

  4. Wait for the template to load – Once duplicated, the template will appear in your Notion sidebar.

After duplicating the template, it's time to personalize it to fit your workflow:

  • Edit sections – Modify text, delete unnecessary pages, or add your own elements.
  • Use syncing features – Link databases and integrate different sections for seamless organization.
  • Change color themes – Many templates offer different color variations to match your aesthetic.
  • Share with collaborators – If you’re working in a team, grant access to others for better collaboration.
