Productivity and efficiency are key ingredients to every successful business. If your office is not functional, it affects everything you and your staff do, which in turn, cuts into your profits. In this workshop, you’ll learn how to:

• optimize your work schedule to ensure peak performance,
• manage the influx of paperwork and safely store your archives,
• employ the basics of Feng Shui to enhance your work environment,
• select the best storage options to efficiently organize your office supplies, and
• increase productivity by clarifying roles, minimizing interruptions, and delegating tasks.

Hope to see you there!

I *heart* Cometdocs! I’ve been looking everywhere to find a *free* (and preferably online) way to quickly and easily generate thumbnail preview images of the pdf files that I’ve been adding to the resources > downloads section of my website, to no avail. And then I found Cometdocs! And now I’m in love! Almost as much as I *heart* MailChimp! 😉

Here are some details ‘straight from the horse’s mouth’:

Cometdocs is a one-of-its-kind free online document conversion interface that offers a large set of document conversions that can’t be found anywhere else online. Its unique features include on-the-fly OCR conversion capabilities, over 50 different conversion options, and proprietary XPS and PDF conversion abilities that retain formatting, images, and text in the selected output format. And best of all for users -> it is available free of charge.

No need to install anything on your computer. Use the easy upload interface to convert your file. Your original file will not be affected, and you can choose your own file name for the converted file which will instantly download to your computer.

What to do with such limitless data conversion possibilities!?! Hmmm… Maybe I should convert some of my college writing and design work from ‘the olden days’ into something more readily usable… Interesting thought…

Anyway, did I already say how much I love this new find!?! 😉

I invite you to join me for a mini version of my Office Organization 101 seminar that I will be presenting for members and guests of the BNI Success Masters networking group here in Georgetown. Here are the details…

Yoono is an easy to use sidebar for your browser that allows you to connect to all your social networks and instant messaging services—in one place. Get all your friend updates, update your own status, and easily share stuff with your friends.
