What it is:Snippets are an easy way to save email templates-whether it’s a full email, or just a few sentences. If I want to follow up with them, I can just draft the email now and schedule it to send at a later date! Instead of putting it on my to-do list two months later, I can just get it done now and cross it off my list. For example, I might have a lead who isn’t ready to commit right now, but they want to circle back in a couple of months. Lastly, Send Later can also be used for longer stretches of time. Send Later allows me to manage emails whenever I want (even if it’s over the weekend, or at 7:00am, or nearing midnight!)… but those emails will be sent only during business hours. Some days, I might start work early in the morning so I can take the afternoon off! However, I believe communication boundaries are hugely important to maintaining a professional relationship-including set office hours. As an entrepreneur, I love the flexibility of my schedule. Secondly, Send Later helps me keep my communication within business hours. Send Later helps me complete inbox management in batches, even if some emails should go out at a later time. I usually do this twice a day (once in the morning, and once in the afternoon). I can set aside 15 minutes to tackle my inbox, and take care of all emails at one time-instead of checking emails as they pop up. This means grouping tasks and knocking them out all at once, in one sitting. How I use it: I use this feature in a few different ways!įirst, I like to batch-work. What it is:This feature is just what it sounds like! “Send Later” allows you to draft emails and schedule them to send at a later date.

You can see if they’ve read your email (and how many times they’ve opened it!)-so you’ll know how to follow up and best serve them. When it appears that a lead has “ghosted” you or a client hasn’t responded in awhile, you don’t have to worry about an email glitch or tech mishap. How I use it: I think this is a helpful feature so you can customize your follow-ups.
When the eye turns green, it means that your email has been read! Each sent email in your account is accompanied by a little eye icon. What it is: Okay, this one feels a little creepy sometimes… but Streak’s Email Tracking feature actually allows you to see when your email has been read (in real time). I want to share a little bit more about each feature, because they are integral to my inbox management! Instead, I focus on the expanded email features-namely, these three: Streak includes a free CRM setup with project “pipelines,” but I don’t use those features at all (I keep all of that stuff in Dubsado!). Are you using Streak? It’s a free email extension for Gmail-and I couldn’t live without it! Streak adds so much functionality to your basic inbox, and it’s completely free.
