Print buyers have competing demands for their time. They juggle multiple priorities and projects, some of which can be quite complex, requiring many decisions and levels of approval. Further, print buyers are responsible for meeting deadlines, budgets, and quality standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Many try to get it all done by being more efficient. They have the right answer, but then turn to clumsy tools and processes, which really don\u2019t solve the problem. In fact some tools do little more than add to the clutter. For instance, spreadsheets, email and multitasking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Author and entrepreneur, Gary Kellerman, notes in his book, The One Thing, that to-do lists and scheduling systems alone don\u2019t make you more efficient. Because they keep expanding. And multitasking is a myth. Your brain can\u2019t focus on more than one thing at a time. It switches back and forth between tasks. This actually increases the time required to get things done and produces poorer results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kellerman says that the key to exceptional results is focusing a significant amount of time each day on the one thing<\/em> that will make the biggest difference in achieving your goal. And when you focus on the most important thing and do it well, other things become easier or even unnecessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sounds good, right? If only you had that kind of control over your time.
