Tips originally broadcast on November 19, 2008
The Small Business tips today will be about time management
and email.
- Let
your email program manage your email as much as possible using email rules
or filters.
- Turn
off your email notifications. You don't need to see your email the moment
it arrives.
- Avoid
distractions! Don't read and answer your email all day long. Set aside a
time each day to read and respond.
- Don't
answer your email at your most productive time of day. Instead, do your
most important tasks during that slot.
Daily Overview: Schedule and prioritize! Do what works best
for the final goals of your company!
