Jodith,
I’m really sorry that I haven’t been back as often as I’d liked since you were new blogger of the week on Barbara’s site!
Sorry!
If you are looking for guest post slots, and have any services you believe you could offer to small businesses in the UK, then I would love to feature you, email our clients to read the post, and point people in your direction.
Your content is great, and our clients would love it.
We tend to just put in the infrastructure (Outlook in a Microsoft Exchange environment) and while I do a tips subscription for our clients, I have no objection at all to pointing people your way.
I’ve published this comment with my office link. I’d rather not publish my email email address, but I think you should be able to pick it up from the Wordpress comments section behind the scenes.
I take no offence if you don’t think it would help you, but I’d love to feature some of your content in a guest post and point people your way.
Let me know either way.
Cheers
Ian

Thanks, Sharon! Yes, I spend a lot of time showing people I work with how to use Office programs. Most of them are social science types (case managers and therapists) and have only minimal exposure to Word and even less to Outlook and Excel. We won’t even discuss Access *laughs*.

You give instructions the same was I do, I love it. Screenshots are the best. After working in a not so tech savvy office for 5 years I learned that visual instruction is the best. Sometimes even showing users on their own computers didn’t get the job done. I had a manual of “How-To’s” all with step-by-step screenshots that anyone could look up and follow even when I wasn’t there. I had to create a read only NETWORK folder on our office network too, because 90% of the time people were too lazy to get our of their chairs to come find the manual. Oh, well. Don’t have to mess with that anymore.
Must say, very nicely done. Kudos.

I rely on Outlook on a daily basis! The reminders tell me which reports are due on which days. I have the reminders set to remind me a few days ahead of time so I can complete by my deadlines. Outlook keeps me on schedule and helps me meet my deadlines - couldn't get through the day without it! Great article. TripTheLady's last blog post..Sunscreen

I *love* the snooze feature. I use it all the time at work. I set up tasks for everything I need to do that day, and then hit the snooze until I get it done and can mark it complete. I just love marking things complete. It gives me a little thrill every time I do it.

Jodith,This is awesome. I installed it yesterday, listed a few tasks, and like magic I got my reminders. I absolutely love it. Now I will try the recurring tasks features...that will be so handy for me. Thank you for sharing such a fantastic, time saving find. Barbara Swafford's last blog post..If One Is Good, Two Is Better
