5 email management tips
You turn on your computer, go make a coffee and sit at your desk psyched for the day ahead. First things first, you check your email. Ugh. The inbox fairy bypassed you again last night. Even worse, there’s a good number more emails in there than when you shut it down last night. The scenario repeats during the day as you check, shuffle, reply and reread. All the while your inbox is growing more unwieldy, a greater source of stress, by the hour. What are the benefits of maintaining a nice inbox?

Leanne provided me with in depth feedback on one of the websites I look after. Solid advice, detailed report and proposal. It took me two seconds to decide that Leanne was the professional I needed to do this task
Steve Gray
In a nutshell – Leanne makes life easier! So many professionals offer over engineered systems with more functionality than adds value, but Leanne took time to understand from the user perspective, and she got it just right.
Jenny PerksWhat can I say??? You have done an outstanding job for us and I know it has not been an easy one. I knew you were the right person for the job. You certainly do think out side the square.
Phillip Royce
WOW…Leanne thanks for all your hard work (and your patience!!) Great promotion of our new website and a fantastic review of our company’s profile. We are so happy and grateful for your vision and professionalism
