People receive hundreds of Emails daily. According to Quora.com, the average number of Emails humankind sends each day is 196.3 billion, and the number is expected to continue to grow.
Emails remain the preferred method of communication by businesses. How to organize these whether or not you run a business can be staggering.
Fortunately, there are tools in existence to help you built right inside your Email platform. This is true for whichever Email you are using.
How to Deal With Emails
Writing Emails
What is so time-consuming about writing Emails is actually writing Emails. Don’t write them; dictate them. May apps like Dragon Dictation exist today for this purpose.
On my smartphone, I click the microphone icon next to the space bar, and I dictate my Emails as well as my texts.
Finding Emails
Read this comment I recently received:
I turn off the emails for all but a couple of my blogs and just access them through my reader because the full post is never in the email anyway. That way my inbox is less cluttered…
Clearly, a cluttered Email box is a problem. It is for this reader, it certainly is for me, and I’m sure it is for many bloggers.
Email Folders
- Make a new folder
Organize your Emails with folders.
This is a screenshot of options inside of Gmail.com. By clicking “Create New Label,” you can make folders. Other Email providers may have their own system for making folders.
- Simply drag and drop your Emails into the folders, and they are instantly organized for later reading. The beauty of this is it unclutters your Email box, so you don’t confuse the new with the old. You can always go back to Emails you’ve categorized by reviewing your folders.
- Decide your preferences. For example, as you can see in the screenshot, one option is to save your Emails but mark them all as read. Perhaps reading the subject line is enough that you may choose this option.
There are many additional options with Emails. For example, you can sort by user, date, and subjects.
Sanebox: Although I have not used Sanebox, reviewers say it will restore sanity to your inbox. For a small fee of $6.00, the app will declutter your inbox for you. It saves you time by organizing your inbox.
Sending Emails
Too busy to send Emails? Don’t stress. Sites like MailChimp exist to help you.
MailChimp has preexisting templates already designed, and you can use the same templates repeatedly. Just copy-paste your new content over the old. MailChimp allows you to add graphics.
You can preschedule, so you don’t have to be at a computer when your content gets sent.
MailChimp has a basic membership that is free to use. For only a nominal fee of $10.00 a month, you can autogenerate “thank you” Emails for signing onto your mailing list.
In conclusion, by following these tips, you will be more productive, less stressed, have less guilt about how you can’t devote more time to activities, and be more organized. Following these tips will certainly add more minutes to your 24 hour day.
When you have a lot on your mind, time-management is crucial to success. While some of these apps and sites can be used for a fee, busy people like you can’t afford not to use them.
By using these time-saving tips, you now have more time in your 24 hour day. What will you do with your extra time? Whether you spend it on personal or professional pursuits, your time will be greater and your stress will be less.
