Quick Tips

When organizing your paper files, avoid labels like “miscellaneous” and “random.”  You’ll encounter difficulties finding them later.
Never plan every minute of your day – add buffer time to your day for the unexpected tasks that pop up.
Just because your email comes to your phone, you don’t need to respond immediately. Schedule specific times to check email.
Create a set of email policies for your small business so everyone’s on the same page when it comes to writing and sending emails.
It’s distracting hearing your phone buzz. Block off time to truly focus; shut the door, silence your phone, close your email.
Share part of your inbox with your assistant so you can efficiently delegate email responses to your assistant.
If you can respond to an email in 2 minutes or less, tackle it now.
When someone gives you a business card, make notes on the back to jog your memory later. Notes might include when you met, what you discussed, potential relationship, etc.
Start prioritizing your tasks to ensure you spend your time and energy doing what is important.
Schedule a time/date to file and clean your files (weekly or bi-monthly).

I loved your presentation of Email Organizing 101. The presentation was clear and informative, and you offered wonderful tips to make our busy lives easier.
