Event Horizon Marketing Explains How to Use 70% of Your Time Better to Get the Most Out of Every Day

With research revealing that entrepreneurs are using 30% of their time to check emails and overall a huge 70% of their time is sub-optimal, Event Horizon Marketing has revealed how to use this time better and produce better results every day.



    TAMPA, FL, July 09, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Research has shown that the average CEO works about 300 days a year for 14 hours a day. That's 4200 hours a year which seems like a lot of time. However, most entrepreneurs are wasting this time and not producing the results they want. Nearly 30% of this time gets sunk into emails. Another third gets spent in meetings and studies show that half of those hours are completely wasted.

Event Horizon Marketing has revealed how successful entrepreneurs can master their time-keeping in order to get the most out of their days:

Say No
As a company becomes more prominent, it is likely to get more of everything. More people reaching out, more emails, invitations, favors, more of everything. However, Event Horizon Marketing points out that it is okay to say no to some of these things. For example, when a childhood acquaintance from 20 years ago asks for introductions to all of your influential friends, it's fine to say no. The firm believes that there are several ways to do this without coming across as rude or unapproachable.

Be an email ninja
Checking emails every few seconds can take up a huge amount of time and leave people feeling like they have not accomplished anything on their original to-do list. Event Horizon Marketing suggests looking at emails at set times in the day, roughly two-four times, and then running through everything then. This way, other tasks receive the attention they deserve. Constantly switching between tasks makes a person mediocre at everything.

Manage your energy
People sit down a lot, in the office, to watch TV, travelling, etc. In fact the average office worker sits for 9.3 hours a day, that's more than we sleep. But people are meant to move, it's vital to our health and also affects our ability to be effective. Here are some simple ways to get your body and your mind moving again:
The seven minute workout: You do 12 exercises in seven minutes and it works.
Walking meetings: Almost everyone has one-on-one meetings. Suggest taking a walk instead of sitting in a conference room or coffee shop.
Ask for a standing desk: Most offices accommodate these requests. They've been proven to reduce risks of heart disease and cancer, as well as boosting moods and alertness.

Build playbooks
For anything that is done more than three times, write down the process in detail. Build playbooks that can be handed to someone else so that they can do the job the exact way that you would. This eliminates the chance of being constantly interrupted by people asking for you to explain the steps, says Event Horizon Marketing.

Get great at external meetings
To get the most out of meetings, people must bridge personal and professional gaps. This could be as simple as asking them if they are going on vacation this year. When they respond, make a note of it. This gives you the opportunity to reach out again with a personal touch and build that connection.

Delegate successfully
A leader doesn't have to do everything, they don't have time. The art of leadership lies in their ability to delegate successfully. Find out who is good at what and give them tasks which coincide with these skills. This gives the team a sense of purpose that they have been trusted with the task and frees up your time, suggests Event Horizon Marketing.
