Emailing the right way

If it seems like you don't have enough time to reply all the emails you get, maybe you should check out this tip.

The Problem

E-mail takes too long to respond to, resulting in continuous inbox overflow for those who receive a lot of it.

The Solution

Treat all email responses like SMS text messages, using a set number of letters per response. Since it’s too hard to count letters, we count sentences instead.

There are 2, 3, 4 and 5 sentences policies. This should help improve your productivity by spending more time away from emailing.
