Overwhelmed by emails? You’re not alone.

Do you ever feel like your email inbox never stops growing?  Are emails arriving faster than you can read them?  Do you lose track of emails when they get buried in your inbox?

The good news is you’re not alone:
  • US respondents receive an average of 67.5 emails in a typical day
  • In 2009, the typical corporate email user was sending and receiving about 167 messages daily
  • The average corporate worker spends a quarter of his/her workday on various email-related tasks
We may be bombarded with emails on a daily basis, but there is hope.  Email management is a critical skill for executives, sales professionals, mobile workers, and everyone in between.  Whether you receive 5 or 105 emails each day, maintaining an organized inbox is crucial to staying productive.
