» Price: $12.95 (pack of 4)
Is the paper flow in your life at a stand still? Are you constantly reshuffling your In Box trying to remember what you were supposed to do with each piece of paper inside? Do you need a little prompting to delegate more often?
We’re proud to introduce the To-Do Tamer – a brand new training product, designed by Julie herself. The To-Do Tamer mirrors Julie’s time management coaching process, so using them is like having Julie by your side, helping you tackle that overwhelming backlog of to-do’s.

Break down projects into manageable chunks, and make to-dos less intimidating. |
Great Uses for To-Do Tamers:
| » |
Keep paper flowing through your office. The first time you touch a piece of paper, you know what you need to do with it. Capture that thought immediately by applying a To-Do Tamer . The next time you pick it up, you're ready to take action. |
| » |
Color-code among team members -- you use orange, your assistant uses yellow -- as you pass work back and forth to each other, the color tells you instantly who generated the assignment. |
| » |
Make better use of downtime. Suddenly have :20 or :40 minutes free to catch up on paperwork and don't know what to do? Scan through your In Box, eyeballing the Time Estimates on the To-Do Tamers , and pluck a task that fits the time you've got available. |
| » |
Sort through a backlog. The average pile-up of work on a person's desk is 10 hours. See how much you've got waiting for you, by applying a To-Do Tamer to each one. Once the workload is quantified, it's easier to spread the work across several days or weeks, decide what to toss, and see how much you can delegate. |
| » |
Delegate more efficiently, without needing to meet. The Next action and time estimate boxes instruct your helper what you need them to do, and provide some perspective how much time the task is worth -- guiding them away from spending too much time on a trivial task, or too little time on something really important. |
