Giving yourself extra time for following up

At a recent seminar on Social Media most of the attendees said they struggled with doing what they need to do in the time available. I have written previously about the importance of following up, but one of the big things that takes a lot of time is dealing with email.

It doesn't need to take up that much time. I have just dealt with nearly 2000 messages in a couple of hours after returning from a 2 week family holiday. I used the system I mentioned in my post, Time Management and Networking Follow up, to go through them.

Since I started dealing with my emails in this I have saved about one hour every day! That's five hours extra each week for the important stuff. For more good advice on dealing with email see this article from Graham Jones entitled 'Check your email - quick - another one might be in....!'

Good Networking!
