Show Notes
This month, Kathi Lipp and Tonya Kubo are sharing their resources, tactics, and strategies for taking care of business. In this first episode, the two tackle the issue of staying on top of email. There is no one right way to handle email. Kathi strives to have a “zero inbox” by Friday, while Tonya operates on an infinite loop of email. Kathi has several email accounts that serve different purposes, and Tonya does not. Either system can be effective as long as you tailor it to work for your particular style. Whatever your email system, Kathi explains that staying on top of it is important for your business because:
- It’s your information source
- It’s how you keep your clients well taken care of
- It’s how your partners get the information they need
Plus, Tonya shares her favorite Gmail resources. If you find yourself drowning in a full inbox, you won’t want to miss this episode. Come for the cat banter, and stay for the invaluable resources to keep your email under control.
