For example, if I have Microsoft Excel XP and would like to send a file to a client that only has Microsoft Excel 97 (which was a horrible disaster for Microsoft, since there were quite a few bugs in this version), you could save the file as a Microsoft Excel 97 version. I remember in the past that you can always downgrade files.

For example, you want to spend one hour on a particular project. But of course, you don’t want to disturb others around you with the bell going off or some even have chickens clucking as the alarm. To avoid this, try using an online timer instead. Virtual Stopwatch gives you the option to set a predetermined amount of time.

For example, I will try to work on task A for 1 hour. Narrow them down to the amount that you can manage (usually 3 - 5), but some people can do more or less. Move all of the other tasks to the next day or time that you can tackle them. Next, add a time frame to each task. Then I will work on Task B for 30 minutes and so on and so forth.

These include marking voice mails as spam (so that all future calls from that number are placed under my Spam folder in Google Voice, the same way email spam filters work), unread, archived, or deleted.

Your Email Signature. But once I set up a great email signature, guess what happened? In your email settings, find the section where you can add an email signature and set one up. If your business has a tag line, include that too. Yes, even on your personal email account as well. Your Client Search.

I even heard from a blogger the other day that he would never guest post on a blog unrelated to his own because it wouldn’t get him any traffic and that it was a waste of effort. For example, my niche interests are humor, tech, writing (clearly!) & Then find 3 or 4 blogs for each of those niches. What a twit.
