Earlier this week I was scanning posts and comments on Facebook when I noticed a single mother of a 4-year old looking for help. She is still doing her same workload as if she were in the office but she is finding it difficult. You see, this lady has to conduct conference calls, webinars and prospecting calls while still minding a young child. It got me thinking if I were in her situation what will I do. Bearing in mind that I have only 24 hours a day, having to work 8-10 hours a day, all while minding a 4-year old. What I would do if I were in her shoes is to work smarter and use the best tools to aid that process. Of course, I will also find activities for my 4-year-old that will keep them busy during those important business interactions. Working smarter does mean that I will now need to try and accomplish more business tasks in less time. How to Work Smarter At this point, you are probably thinking how on earth will you reduce your working day from 10 hours to 6? The secret to this is to first find those tasks that can be completed in less time. Also, if there is anything that can be done in advance I will get that done while my child is asleep. Finally, if there is anything that can be batched together then I will get those completed in huge chunks. Here are a few examples of what I mean. * Use an app to take notes during meetings (manual notes slows down calls)* Reduce meeting times from 60 minutes to 35 minutes* Create templates for each type of report or document that is repetitive* Record every call, webinar or meeting using two different software (stuff happens so be prepared)* Avoid unnecessary meetings where possible* Prepare a strict agenda and get approval from all parties* Ensure that everyone is aware that your time is precious* Outsource labour-intensive, repetitive tasks if possible* Delegate other team members to complete non-core items As you can see just by making a few small adjustments to the way you approach your day allows you to free up precious time. 37+ Remote Work Tools that Make You Look Clever Let's spend some time looking at the best remote working tools to help you cut time by 50%.
