1 00:00:02,600 --> 00:00:06,000 I down here, welcome to the Podiatry management minute. 2 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,200 We're going to talk about handling email and I guess it's 3 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,300 not handling these things because I have this is this 4 00:00:11,300 --> 00:00:13,100 doesn't really fit. This is the beginner's guide to 5 00:00:13,100 --> 00:00:15,400 fitness but I guess I can teach you how to be fit with your with 6 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:19,200 your email. I want to talk about email 7 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,800 because email is something that really kind of messes with us a 8 00:00:22,808 --> 00:00:24,400 little bit. We can either spend a lot of 9 00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,200 time or not much time when we don't have really any good 10 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:28,500 processes. I'm going to go over a few 11 00:00:28,500 --> 00:00:29,700 pieces of technology that really helps. 12 00:00:29,700 --> 00:00:32,700 The first of all, I'm a big advocate of block timing 13 00:00:32,700 --> 00:00:34,600 meaning. I only check my email at noon 14 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:39,200 time and so that just saves time and I don't have much time at 15 00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,400 noon usually about 10 minutes and I can handle everything 16 00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,200 during that time. I so that's the first thing is 17 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,200 just reducing the amount of time. 18 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,400 So I'm not looking at it during the day multiple times. 19 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,100 I'm just looking at at noon when I can take action on the email, 20 00:00:50,500 --> 00:00:53,500 that's number one. Second thing is, I unsubscribe 21 00:00:53,500 --> 00:00:55,800 viciously from everything, so everything is, I'm either 22 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,300 unsubscribing from it or I'm putting it into a folder. 23 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,200 I've I've kind of a folder system so I use Gmail You can 24 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:05,800 you do the same with Outlook but the folder system is everything. 25 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,100 That's not important that I need to look at right when it comes 26 00:01:09,100 --> 00:01:12,000 in, I put in an optional folder. So I have one folder called an 27 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,800 optional folder and everything automatically goes into that. 28 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,700 You can set up these these little Beyond this to show how 29 00:01:17,700 --> 00:01:18,700 to do that. But that's pretty easy. 30 00:01:18,700 --> 00:01:21,000 Click on the email and you automatically send it to a 31 00:01:21,008 --> 00:01:23,100 folder. Otherwise you unsubscribe from 32 00:01:23,100 --> 00:01:26,600 everything and then kind of the other key is I use something 33 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,000 called follow-up, then.com, which is something that when I 34 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,700 send an email, It actually reminds me in a week or two 35 00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:36,800 weeks or whatever time period that I want what I need to do. 36 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:39,000 So, it's called follow-up. Then.com, I'll talk a little bit 37 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,400 more in-depth about it, but it's a way that I can follow up the 38 00:01:41,408 --> 00:01:42,800 people if they don't get back to me. 39 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,800 So I don't have to keep an email in my in my Tickler. 40 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,100 I don't need to keep it in my inbox and so by doing that I'm 41 00:01:48,100 --> 00:01:51,000 able to have an empty inbox every single day with those 42 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,300 three little steps. So that's kind of my routine. 43 00:01:54,300 --> 00:01:56,000 I'd love to know what works for you. 44 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,300 Please post underneath this video. 45 00:01:57,300 --> 00:01:59,200 Tell me what works for your email, handling, or tune. 46 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:03,600 Or if you're really bad at it, let We know that to okay, talk 47 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:04,300 later. Okay, thanks.
