Inbox Zero Strategy

Managing Email

Email subject lines can be the number one way to organize important emails.  Before sending an email, spend a second thinking how the subject line can categorize the email you are about to send.  Don't leave it blank, generic or off-topic.

Another suggestion is to continue existing email conversations.  Conversations are based on subject lines that are exactly the same.  Find the previous email to respond instead of creating a whole new chain.
