Snoozing emails! I get so many emails throughout the day that I can hardly keep up! As you know, I am all about organization, so when I read Robin Lindbeck's Blog about snoozing emails to save for a later date, I was thrilled to learn that I can use this for my email organization.
I am constantly receiving emails about current and upcoming events in my job. Events that I will be attending and volunteering at like Bengal Visit Day, Rugir Con ISU, Experience ISU, New Student Orientation, and Academic Signing Days to name a few. I continuously receive emails about the event and what I am assigned on the day of the event. Having the option to snooze the email until the day before the event will be a game changer for me so that the information won't get lost in my inbox which it has before on many occasions. I then scramble to find the email or have the sender send it to me again. Now that is embarrassing!
Integrating something so small into my everyday work routine really does make a huge impact when it comes to productivity. I am excited to utilize this on a daily basis and hope that this will not make me feel so overwhelmed when it comes to my emails.
Michelle,
ReplyDeleteThis is really interesting. I must have missed this bit of information that Robin posted, so appreciate the re-cap. I feel very similar with the daily emails. Between school, work, and personal emails that come in every day it is easy to feel overwhelmed and just delete the things that are not immediately important. I will have to start using this snoozing feature and see if this helps with the overwhelmed feeling.
