The One Thing I'M sure everyone who has access to a computer can agree on is this we all Get
Too Many emails i used to get so frustrated by my email that i'd regularly declare email Bankruptcy
Which Was Select all of My Unread emails and press Tulley and sure That Cured My overcrowded inbox but It made me feel awful
I let People down who were seeking my advice i missed Out on high paid speaking engagements and more
So i decided That i needed to change the way i deal with my email i'm derek Halpern the founder of social Triggers the place
Where entrepreneurs and Executives Turn to learn how to get ahead in business and life and in this video i'm going to reveal a
Painfully obvious and Boring Way to manage your emails
but It Works so keep Watching
My first Attempt
To really cure my inbox problem Failed i Scheduled Three hours bang emails Out and be done with it it felt Great
but It Was short-Lived After Just a Few Days my email inbox Would be a huge mess again
Here's What went wrong Instead of curing The problem i
treated The symptom and you know what sure i'm talking about my email inbox but this is how most People deal with problems in life
in Business
They See that Something's wrong and create a Temporary fix but never tackle The root cause
So back to my inbox the bottom line is this i get a lot of email and
Brute-Forcing My Way Through It Will Never fix the issue
So Here's What i did first i took an Inventory of The types of email i received and broke It down into five Types
One email from newsletters i Subscribed to and Liked to read to
email That Needed a Response from me three email That Needed a response but not Necessarily from me
four email That Didn't Need a response at all and five email from People That Added me to their mailing list Without Their permission i
Hate Those People
AnyWay i realize i could Knock Three of These five email Types out in a Few Seconds
newsletters i wanted so i kept them Spam email i could Remove and Hopefully Never Get Again an
email That didn't require
Responses i
Just Let Those Be so all that Was left were the emails That Needed a response and there were a ton of them so i
Looked Through Them and Look for Threads of
Similarity and i noticed that Almost Every single email Could Be Broken down into about 20 different Types of Requests
Requests That i could pre write once and use over and Over again or Better yet
Requests i could pre write and have someone Else Actually Send the email for me so that's What i did
I created email response
Templates One for Saying no to coffee?
Saying Yes to speak Saying no to an interview showing People my best traffic videos i wrote email templates for everything You could Possibly imagine
And i passed almost All of my email Along to an employee to answer for me i still read almost all of my email Because
I like reading it but i don't have to respond to all of It because i created that System
Now my email takes me like 20 minutes a day to go through Instead of a Few Hours of Frustration and Bs
So let's take This back to you what in your life are you brute-forcing your Way through to your own detriment if
Email Is one of The big issues in your life i suggest you use the same strategy i Shared in this video Because It Works
But Like i Said this video isn't Only about, how to cure a stuff email Inbox it's really about
operating procedures
Instead of brute Forcing Your Way Through Things That
Frustrate you look to create an operating procedure and You'll solve the problem for the long term
