1 eliminate just say no!

saying no 1 “While I appreciate the invite, right now we’ve made a strategic decision to concentrate on more speaking engagements and workshops. So if you have one of those, great! But if you’d like to discuss a new unrelated opportunity/idea, we simply don't have the time or the manpower to do it right now. I'm sure you understand and hope to see you at the next Miami Marketers Happy Hour!”

outsource 1 Thanks for your email. In an effort to free up time and become more efﬁcient & effective, I'm outsourcing my inbox ;) Patti & Corrisa will be monitoring my incoming business emails, booking my speaking engagements, scheduling appointments, & answering most incoming emails for the time being. Should you urgently need to speak with me, text me at xxxx@txt.att.net. I will answer or call you back at my earliest convenience. However, I am "batching" communications and responding once or twice a day at most. Please do not add this email to any subscription lists or mailing lists. I appreciate your helping me to automate, outsource and delegate all non-essential tasks in an effort to "upgrade my life." If you are interested in performing your own experiment, here are a few book recommendations: 1. The 4-Hour Workweek 2. Upgrade Your Life 3. Never Check Email in the Morning Thank you!
