Announcing a New Five-Week Online Course with Laura Stack, The Productivity Pro!

Become a Microsoft Outlook Email Cracker Jack!

Managing Your Workflow and Keeping Your Inbox Empty

 

I have been asked SO many times for private coaching on how I use Microsoft Outlook to stay organized and productive. So, I’ve recorded a FIVE-HOUR series of videos for you on how to keep your Outlook inbox EMPTY and organized. I will be personally facilitating a live replay of those videos once a week for five weeks, so you can ask all your questions live and receive coaching from me. The expectation is that you’ll do the homework I assign the following week, so that you come back prepared for the next week.

 

You’ll receive a detailed workbook for each session with screen shots and step-by-step instructions, as well as a recording of the session to review again and again. Don’t worry if you can’t attend the sessions live or miss one, because you can watch the recording any time you wish.

 

Take advantage of this extraordinary time to set yourself up for success when you’re finally back in the office! Perhaps you have some extra time on your hands you can use to get ahead! By using these techniques NOW, you can get on top of things, so you’re ready to hit the ground running. This is an excellent time to empty your inbox, clean out your files, get those “someday” projects moving, and otherwise get organized! By creating these productive habits now, you’ll be set up for even greater success once you’re ultimately back in your office.

You need this course if you currently:

• Put things to do on your calendar
• Use your inbox like a quasi-to do list
• Mark emails as Unread
• Flag emails for follow-up

• Clean up your inbox

Here are some of the strategies you’ll learn:

1. Reducing: reducing the volume of inbound messages

3. Converting: switching emails into meetings or to-do items
4. Prioritizing: triaging the actions inside the emails and knowing what to do next
5. Writing: responding quickly with emails that are actually read
6. Scheduling: blocking out time to work on email without having it take over your day
7. Alternating: using other tools except email to complete certain tasks

9. Emptying: learning a step-by-step process to get to Inbox Zero every day (where do they go?)
10. Saving: stop using email folders and find what you want when you want it (no, your inbox is not a filing system either)

HEADS UP: I’m demonstrating on a PC—not all techniques work with the Mac version of Outlook.
