Because we rely on email so much to run our businesses, it’s our greatest tool (no matter how much you might sigh when you see how many unread emails you have).
But because there’s so much activity in there. And you can receive emails from anyone, it’s the most common way to try to breach your business.
Hackers are targeting every business, every day. Using clever automated tools.
Wouldn’t that be good. No emails at the end of each day. No worrying that you’ve missed something important.
Or scrolling through the same emails again and again, when you’d rather be playing with your kids (doh!).
Inbox Zero isn’t reached by having fewer emails… that’s really hard to achieve. Instead, you need to change the way you handle emails.

Oh what a headache. GDPR is finally here. We’ve written a guide to make it easy for you
Most businesses have been putting this off for years.
Putting what off? Implementing the new GDPR data protection laws. It finally comes into play on 25th May.
Like any piece of European legislation, it’s big and complicated and has a lot of pain if you get it wrong.
In May next year, a major data law will come in… and your business needs to get ready now.
It’s called GDPR – General Data Protection Regulation – to replace the data protection act.
And the fines for breaking it are huge… up to €20m. Scary.
The main aim of GDPR is to give individuals a greater level of control over their personal data. This means that all companies who hold any customer information will be subject to strict rules.
