This is made easy using Polymail, a fantastic mail app that allows you to defer mail until a later date of your choosing. The aim is to end up with nothing in your Inbox each day. This means that the only things sitting in your Inbox are the things you need to complete today. It works by treating mail in the following way, you decide that every email should have one of the following actions ĭo - act upon it now, it's important and urgent or so easy it can be acted upon quickly.ĭefer - set it aside for a later date, it needs acting upon but not now.ĭelegate - forward it to a person who is better placed to deal with it.ĭelete - it has no purpose and needs trashing. Time management applications don't help, often making matters worse and piling on the guilt.Ī few years ago I was introduced to the concept of Inbox Zero, which uses mail to manage your time. Often you'll see an indicator of hundreds of unread messages, meaning every time they open their mail they can't see the wood for the trees. Many creatives are not good at time management and one place that shows this can be their email. They use what they describe as 'mid-band' exchange rates and charge around 0.41% as the transaction fee, which is amazing especially when you compare it to our bank's fee of £10 to £22 per transaction. One of our suppliers recommended Wise to us which aims to lower charges and to use fair currency exchange rates. Wiseįormerly known as TransferWise, if like us you do business across countries and currencies, then you are often at the mercy of banks and their charging fees for international bank charges or the fees that Paypal use.
