Are you working 60+ hours a week? Is it because you love to work or because your business demands it?
Many 
people pride themselves on putting in long hours at work. It gives them a feeling of productivity, making them feel like significant contributors to a greater cause, and giving them satisfaction, happiness, and a feeling of self-worth.
Are all those hours really productive, though? If you track the hours you spend actually working every day, you would be surprised to know that much of your time is spent thinking about your next task, tonight’s dinner, or how you’re going to get to your kid’s soccer game.
Wouldn’t it make more sense to find a solution to increase your effectiveness and efficiency at work so you could go home for dinner at a descent time?
Try replacing those long, unproductive hours with a CRM that defines processes and allows you to share information easily. You can keep to-do lists, activities with reminders, and notes which encourage immediate action. You can assign tasks to team members easily, automate work based on assignment rules, and be notified when changes happen.
By incorporating a few simple steps, you can easily increase your productivity.
Here are 10 steps to help manage your time better:
- Define your work and your deliverables
