5 Plugins to Make Life Easier

Lots of inboxes, unread emails, clients who don’t answer, waiting for an important answer… It makes your head swell! Sound familiar? There are more and more people for whom mail is not just a means of exchanging information, but an integral part of life. A prime example is the management and marketing professions.

Two things always grow with success: profits and the number of emails. Not only incoming, but also outgoing: colleagues, subscribers, partners, and friends all need your attention.

We’ll tell you how plugins can speed up your email experience and even make it enjoyable.

Task manager

Here are 3 popular scheduling plugins: Asana, Todoist, and Trello. We will talk about Trello since it has been the most popular scheduling plugin for years and never gets old.

This is the official extension from the service of the same name. It lets you search for cards directly from the address bar of your browser, as well as add the web page currently open to any of the service’s boards. In addition, the extension adds an Add Card button to the Gmail service interface. Save important emails as Trello cards with just one click of this button.

Checker Plus

There is another effective tool to increase efficiency – to avoid logging in to the mail service unnecessarily. Especially for those who are often distracted by new emails. With this plugin, you can manage your incoming messages from the outside. Without entering your email, you can read an email, delete it, or perform other simple operations.

Email to Text

The two main purposes of this extension are to save you time and to be punctual. People don’t check their mailbox as regularly as we would like them to. But everyone reads texts. Now you don’t have to go through a chain of actions to write a letter and notify the person about it. A few clicks are enough for emailing a phone number and sending an SMS.

QuickBooks for Gmail

For those who conduct business correspondence through the mail, the plugin can become indispensable. It helps to create payment invoices right in your inbox. Now it will be easier to make deals, and invoices for payment. For all invoices created, it allows you to track payment status. Your customers will be able to remit payment through the mail, provided they have a similar extension installed.

Boomerang

The plugin will be useful for those who need a timer to send messages. For instance, for people who correspond with clients and partners who live in other time zones. Installing it will allow you to choose the right day and time when your email should go to the addressee. If some of the sent messages remain unanswered, an extension will remind you of them.

Summary

Certainly, Gmail is not a perfect mailer and Chrome is not a perfect browser. They may not have the features a marketer needs, and some of them may even be unnecessary. But by using plugins wisely, not going overboard, and installing only the necessary ones, you can always make your virtual workspace as comfortable as possible.
