My favorite tool to keep my inbox organized

I don’t know if I’m the only one here but I will sign up for just about anything if it’s free. (You don’t even want to know what my fiance & I would do for a free t-shirt.) This character flaw of mine has created quite the chaos in my inbox. SO much so that I have three email account, one of them solely for subscriptions. It’s my decoy & it’s insane.

it had gotten to the point where I didn’t even open my email to get the actual GOOD stuff I signed up for & I missed out on tons of valuable information that could really take my business to the next level. & worst of all, I missed out on returning client work because the decoy email had once upon a time been my business contact email. I felt terrible that my loyal clients had gone months with no reply from me & were left feeling unappreciated.

I set out to clean that bitch up, one day at a time. I started scheduling a small block of time every day to go through & Kon Marie it into submission. The problem was that to unsubscribe from old contacts was multiple slow steps with 2, 3, 4 pages of crap to make you stay with them & every time I deleted one, another one came. It was taking freaking FOR.EVER

 

So, when I found Unroll.me, it was a total game changer. It took me 12 minutes, count them, 12 to go through the clutter & zero dollars. I started by signing into the email I wanted to clear out (fun fact, I did all 3 email accounts) & it scanned my emails to see what I had going on. This is what it found:

I simply went through the list, decided what I wanted to unsubscribe from (sorry Forever21, your clothes don’t fit this mom-bod anymore) & what I wanted to keep (bring on the Target deals, baby!) I also had the option to create a Roll Up email that I could get every week of some of my favorite subscriptions all in one email from UnrollMe so they wouldn’t clutter up my inbox with multiple emails. Here is where I ended up:

Honestly, I could go through another time to even better clean it up but this start had me doing a happy dance. Seriously, ask my fiance, it wasn’t cute & I can’t dance. But I can now focus on the things I need NOW & I can remember to enter all of those HGTV giveaways so I’m totally going to win a whole home makeover soon, just watch.

 

If you want an organized, productive email at absolutely zero cost to you, go on over to Unroll.Me now so you can get to business!
