I’ve just recorded a VERY short video (under 5 minutes) that will almost certainly save you 20 minutes per day if not HOURS. This video contains a couple VERY SIMPLE yet VERY POWERFUL and FREE tips to help you spend less time on email while being better at managing it.
The fact is I probably get 10 times as much email as you do and I spend a fraction of the time managing it that you do.
Stop wasting time on email! Here’s a link to the video where I show my secrets:

Well … I’ll have to give this a shot because I have tons of emails that I’ve kept in folders and which I have to go through regularly (frustratingly).
Jim,
AWESOME idea. I never really understood the “archive” button. Now my gmail looks SO much more manageable. Combine this with using Google Reader for the blogs I keep up with and I’m carving off a bunch of time.
Thanks!
Hey Jim,
You’re right. I’m a folder junkie. I’ve probably got 35 different folders to sort my email into. And then I forget about it… Don’t know where I put it when I want to find it later.
I do keep my “important” unread emails in the inbox. Also the “important” ones I’ve already read but might want to revisit some day.
The problem is that now there are like 1500 emails in there, a third of them unread! Seems like I never have the time to go back and read them all. Once a month or so I go through and spend hours reading, deleting, filing a bunch of them into the correct folder until I get tired of it.
But I never really get done with them.
I think I’ll set up a brand new email address and try using your system right from the start.
Thanks for the tip.

Find the misspelled eBay auction
bargains that other bidders miss!
The sad truth is that I am to unorganized to use folders, so I guess I don’t have to quit that habit.
Jimm, That was a excellent video. I had no idea on how to utilize the archive feature. Thank you very much for the tip.

Jim,
What a great tip.I tend to be a deletist! with all the rest remaining in the in-box.
Now I know that to do with that mystery Archive button.
Thanks Jim

Super idea! I can’t find archive in my email system yet but I can always make one and only one folder and call it archive.
Thanks,
Debbie
