Topic: "Personal Productivity - There's an app for that!.."
Speaker: Brian Geraths
Streamline your systems, maximize your efficiency and achieve more in each day.
How many hats do you wear in a day?
Parent, spouse, volunteer, committee chair, coach?.. And then there's work!.. Payroll, scheduling, marketing, building maintenance, supply needs and countless minutia not covered by your company CRM.
Have you ever gone on vacation, and suddenly a flood of forgotten "musts" popped into your head
There's an app (or two) designed that can organize all thoughts in such a way that you can pull them up from any device or computer at any time. It's a tidy place for all of your "stuff" to be customized to your way of thinking. Articles, blog posts, business cards, board meeting notes, save-worthy emails, checklists, seminar notes, vacation ideas and pack-lists.
Evernote is a place for these and endless more, pulling from web pages, email, document scanning and notes created within the app. Already using OneNote or similar app?.. You will easily be able to integrate this system to similar organizational tools.
Brian has created a system that incorporates the physical arrangement of his work space to match the digital filing of his notes. This combination of tools has allowed him to maintain his "Digital Hat-rack" into categories that prevent him the wasted time of seeking "where to put it" or "where did I put that?".
His ability to explain things in an easy-to-grasp manner, will set you up for immediate use, with a deeper understanding of how to make your time more profitable. His goal is not to sell you on Evernote, rather to illustrate the importance of combining your physical and digital systems to create a space that you will THRIVE in.
