We know that you spend too
much time dealing with email and working in
Outlook. So Day-Timer® is pleased to announce

reality-based workflow processing that helps you
be MORE productive with Outlook, instead of

No travel is required—you attend this virtual
training “live” from the privacy of your own
office. This isn’t just computer training. It’s
not PowerPoint. She will share her desktop and
show her computer screen LIVE using her actual
Microsoft Outlook software.
Each webinar is accompanied by a workbook with
detailed screen shots and step-by-step
instructions, so you can duplicate what Laura
demonstrates when the seminar is over. It is a
real-time demonstration, where you’ll follow
along with your workbook step-by-step and then
go implement the tips on your system.
If you look at the times and think, “Oh darn,
I’m not available at that day and time,” don’t
worry!! You don’t have to attend the “live”
session, because each registration also includes
a recording of the entire session! You can still
register and receive the recordings and
workbooks for the ones you missed.
In these difficult economic times, we are
offering this training at a very affordable
price to make it easy for everyone to attend:
$39 per person. This is a single-person license.
The live session, recording, and/or workbook
can’t be shared with or distributed to
colleagues or friends; however, if you want to
project the seminar in your conference room or
show it at a meeting, change the quantity in the
shopping cart or call the Productivity Pro®,
Inc. at 303-471-7401 and tell them how people
will attend. They will charge your credit card
$39 per person. We use the honor system.
These webinars are not interactive (i.e.,
participants don’t ask questions), because one
person’s issue may not apply to all of those
attending the seminar. The feedback has been
that people would rather have our presenter get
more content into the session. With hundreds of
people in the virtual room at one time,
interaction has proven to be unmanageable and
not effective. However, you are welcome to email
Laura specific questions you have prior to the
webinar at
Laura@TheProductivityPro.com.
To attend the webinar, you can use either your
phone or your own computer speakers via your
Internet connection. If using the Internet, we
recommend you purchase an inexpensive USB
headset (such as the
Logitech ClearChat Comfort for around $40)
that plugs right into your USB and offers great
sound quality and privacy from your office
neighbors. Here is a link which should answer
any questions you may have about the webinar
platform and the software you will need to
install before the session:

NOTE: Some of the features presented require the
use of Microsoft Exchange Server and may not
function the same way with POP servers.
