No matter which business I talk to time management always seems to be an issue, with so much to do small business owners can struggle to find time to fit everything in and this can be a barrier to being successful with social media.
Recently I discovered I was spending more time on social media than I had imagined. As a result I have put myself on a timesaving programme to correct this. Part of the process is allowing myself a specific amount of time for each task I have in the day. It helps me to conquer procrastination and distractions. For that reason when I stumbled on this simple tool I was delighted.
E.gg Timer doesn’t require registration, downloads or anything complicated, you simply enter a the period of time you have allotted for your task and an annoying alarm goes off when the time has been expended. It beats the timer on my iPhone as it opens an alarm window on my browser that is hard to ignore.
Here’s how it works
Go to www.e.ggtimer.com
Enter the time you want to allocate into the box
Click ‘go’
Your alarm will go off when the allotted time has counted down
