Tip 7 Organizing Folders

I've found a great new way of naming folders. I start with the first name because that's what the person will say when they phone. Then their location, then their job, then origin.

For example, JonLonITScot. So when I file, I look for the name on the end of the email. If I have two Johns, I can see which is which and memorize it.

So when John phones I can ask are you in London. If he says yes, I can then ask how's the IT world, or have you been back to Scotland recently.

Easy filing. Easy phone responses.
