8. STAY IN TOUCH WITH NEW CONTACTS
• Save your iPhone’s contacts to a Google Spreadsheet
• Send me a list of my new contacts over the week, so I remember to stay in
contact.
• Send new contacts a “Nice to meet you!” email
9. GET A DAILY EMAIL SHOWING TWEETS POSTED
AROUND A PARTICULAR LOCATION
! A daily digest email (or real time email) can be sent to you of the tweets that are
posted by a certain user OR around a geographic location, such as an advertiser’s
store.
10. DUMP YOUR IDEAS (BY TEXT)
! Sometimes you get your best ideas when you're rushing to be somewhere, or having
dinner with friends, or typically any time when it isn't convenient to stop and write
them down. Scraps of paper easily get misplaced, and the 'notes' function of your
smartphone can run wild if left unattended to.
! Text your brilliant idea to the specified number and it will be added to a spreadsheet
in your Google Drive.
11. EASILY POST TO LINKEDIN
• Automatically Post based on day, holiday, etc.
• Every Monday, post on my Linkedin in account "What impacting or exciting thing are
you doing this week” Just to get people motivated and remind them every week that
I am here and sow the sales seed.
• Automatically cross-post
• Every post on Twitter (or Facebook, or Instagram) automatically post to Linkedin
• Share popular articles from the NYTimes with your LinkedIn followers
• Choose the section you'd like to share from below. Tailor it to your industry!
12. GET TEXTS FOR SPECIFIC TRIGGERS
! The IFTTT SMS service can come in handy when you don’t have constant internet
access or if you don’t have a smartphone. Waiting for a really important email from
your boss or an advertiser? Your phone can tell you when it’s time to start searching
for an internet cafe. Simply set up a applet: “If mail from bigboss@mycompany.com,
then send me an SMS”.
13. LOG HOW MUCH TIME YOU SPEND AT HOME/
WORK/ETC.
! Every time you arrive/depart a specifically designated location (assuming you’re
carrying your location-enabled smartphone), a new row to a spreadsheet in Google
Drive is automatically created. Users can set the areas you want to log [home,
office, gym, etc.] — thus taking a big step toward the battle of proper time
management.
! Track how much time you spend at a certain location via Google Calendar
14. PERSONAL
