Overview of the webinar

Do you remember when hand-written letters or typed letters were the main means of communication? If so, you may also remember how glorious it was to send information and have immediately received it via the fax machine.


Nearly as irritating as letters were the process of having to leave messages via a secretary. Voice mail was a wonderful enhancement to communication because you bypassed the go-between.


With these methods of communication in mind, change your paradigm and celebrate email. It is fast, efficient, and effective. At least it should be effective.  If it is not meeting your needs, sign up for this webinar and make Microsoft Outlook go to work for you, easing the pain of email, making life easier for you, and helping you have greater output.
