For some reason I’d never taken the time to stop annoying emails from clogging my inbox. Must’ve been that I didn’t realize how dead simple it is. Every day I get what feels like 200 notices about discount theatre tickets, daily news briefs from an industry I’m only peripherally interested in plus invitations to events 75 miles away. I tried unsubscribing, but that only doubled the in-flow.
I finally asked (my daughter Lindsey) HOW do you create the filters to stop the traffic. I couldn’t believe it was as easy as a right-click on the address to add to my junk mail folder. Now, once a day I go to that file, breeze through the mail, delete it and smile at the efficiency of it. About once a week I find an item that should not have been there, but those are rare occasions and easily corrected.
This tool is one of those small good things that make entrepreneurial life easier. I’d love to hear your tips and tricks.
