The Entrepreneur Life # 6 (video 6:45)

The great email trap..... Emails can help us be very productive and informative. But what about being collaborative? There is a place for emails in the daily grind of business. It's great for sharing info and ideas. But once we decide to exchange ideas, nothing beats actual conversations.

My 3 email no-nos:

  1. Use the subject line. Title your email with the appropriate subject, not "read later."
  2. Emails should be short and to the point. If you find yourself including different topics in one email, you need to write a separate email.
  3. DO NOT COLLABORATE VIA EMAIL!!!!!! Actual discussions are faster and easier to comprehend. Humans are meant to read non verbal signals and voice inflection. A 13 email stream can probably be figured out in a 10 minute conversation and probably have a better outcome.

Do you agree? What are your thought?

Haha...did you notice the mess in your camera...its funny cause i thought as i started watching...now there is the car of a real entrepreneur! i so feel the email thing... i would switch it to new form of communication too. like currently i am managing the hotel through managers from across the world. they both like whatsapp and normally its through voice recordings. while it is effective in certain ways...it is so hard for going back...cause like in the middle of some 2 minute voice message is this important info...ahhh... i feel like a mix of written subject..followed by voice...and just sticking to one subject...otherwise it all just gets jumbled and these hanging threads exist all over the shop.
thanks again...enjoy listening to you car sessions.

Thanks @buttcoins!!!! I sometimes use an app called voxer. It's similar to whatsapp. It's irritating when there's 45 seconds of rambling before something important. Just like emails, I'll pay attention to the first few seconds but then I'll zone out.

Love the hustle brother 🙏🏼

Solid thoughts as well, +1 definitely!

Awesome. Thanks man!!! I'm just keepin it real...lol
