One Great Idea to Help You Help Yourself
Call Sheilah! got this idea while managing our own client caseload. It’s helped us keep our projects running smoothly and also ensured that our clients’ operation runs smoothly as well. We use this tip daily and it is super helpful.
Ritualize Your Work Day
Organization is not a one-and-done proposition. It is ongoing, which means keeping up with the influx of documents, files, projects and communications. To stay on track and get a jumpstart on your next day, allot 15 minutes at the end of each work day to update to-do lists, cross items off completed tasks, file completed projects, put in-progress items in their proper place, and add new items that have cropped up during the day. This makes for a clean, fresh, organized start when turning attention to the to-do list the following day.
Consider It Done!
Just recently, Call Sheilah! was asked to help a customer get better service from a vendor. She was paying far more for services than her neighbors and she needed an advocate to call the vendor. Call Sheilah! spent 45 minutes on the phone, helping to customize a package of services that would meet our client’s needs, and fall within her budget. We also coordinated the site visit so that the vendor could come and install the appropriate equipment to ensure the smooth delivery of those services.

Say Happy Holidays with a Gift Coupon - purchase the Gift of Time for your loved ones from Call Sheilah! It's the perfect gift for anyone and everyone.

We look forward to hearing from you soon.
