Even Minky Needs a Holiday

Aug 12
2009

Minky is on holiday this week and he really needs a break. Mrs M has told him that if he takes his laptop it will be going in the pool, so we are looking after his business for him for the week. These are just some of the things we are doing to make sure he gets a well deserved rest.

  • taking his phone calls for him
  • responding to any enquiries from new clients, so that they get a professional first impression
  • booking appointments for him ready for when he’s back
  • chasing his customers for payment
  • sending out a marketing email
  • updating his blog

So, while he’s monkeying around on the beach, his business is ticking along without him.

You will always be the best person to run your business, but could we do this for you for a few days so you can recharge your batteries? Just drop us an email…

 Since starting this blog and getting himself known, Minky is getting quite a lot of emails – thankfully he has some help! 

Minky ready for networking

Minky ready for networking

 

 Minky always has an inbox full of emails about “performance enhancing” products, his bank needing to check his details (even though he doesn’t actually bank with them!) and desperate widows trying to release their inheritance from evil dictators, but even though it’s rubbish it eats into his productive time and that costs him money! Considering what his “hourly” rate is he can’t afford to be sifting through emails, he’d be better off making (or selling) his product…

As professional administrators we know which emails are important to him and which are junk and can deal with them quickly and efficiently, sending him only the ones which are worth reading. With his consent we also reply to requests for further information about his products on his behalf, so that he has time to make those important follow-up calls that we all love doing…

Would you get better results if you only got the emails that were important to you?
If you would like to know more about our services, or have suggestions for future posts please send Minky an email and tell him what you think!
