How to Manage an Intimidating Inbox

Correct me if I'm wrong but, whether you’re at work or traveling on the weekend, you're always checking up on your inbox, right? In fact, it's probably one of the most frequently used apps or opened tabs you access on a daily basis. That being said, it definitely shouldn’t busting at the seams - you need it streamlined!

Letting unopened emails - whether spam, social, or business related - sit in your inbox is more harmful than you think. For example, you could be missing an opportunity to reconnect with old clients that bring in new revenue, or respond to a team member who has an urgent question relating to a big project.

The worst part? This is how many service professionals approach their inbox because they’re unaware that a streamlined solution exists - smart automation technology - and this is how it works:

Automated Time Tracking:

Keep track of all your billable hours (without having to do any manual work) with a smart platform that has an automatic time-tracking feature linked to your inbox. It’ll capture all the time you spend there and reduce the amount of billable revenue you're letting fall through the cracks, which often happens with poor time tracking habits. You may not know this, but email causes professionals to leak over $50,000 in revenue per year!

Email Sync:

Automatically sync your Google, Microsoft Exchange, Outlook, and Office 365 accounts with a smart platform that supports email integration. You’ll be able to import all of your contacts, calendar meetings, and emails into one automated dashboard and convert them into tasks without the need for any manual data entry - like copying and pasting from one tool to the next. The best part? You won't need to remember several different logins because now, you can live and work out of one streamlined platform.

Mobile Integration:

Are you constantly on the road, in-between meetings, or working from home? If so, you know how overwhelming it can be to return to the office and open your inbox. But - with the right smart platform, you can integrate everything with your mobile or tablet device. Send and receive emails, log time against them, and see your entire communications history (which is being automatically archived for you) while working on the fly because you have access to all the information you need no matter where you are.

So - to stay on top of your emails and reduce the burden that comes with keeping track of an overflowing inbox, start working with smart automation technology today. Just click here to get started.
