Becoming a Web Worker

April 9th, 2007 by Stephen

Posted in Blog, Communication, GTD, Gear, Selling, System |

Welcome back! It's good to see you again. Please note that I am now publishing all new material at my hub site: StephenPSmith.com

…and asking for your input!

This past week has been very busy, so not too much in the way of posting. The big news is that I have officially become a Web Worker - an Internet Sales Consultant for the meatspace job. The company has grown this department from one person to a full staff of three plus an assistant, so they are serious about making this work.  Of course now I get to learn a new set of skills for tracking and communicating with my customers. The trick will be integrating my current GTD system with a new set of tools (provided by the company) for these tasks.

I had been avoiding going digital with my GTD implementation, because I didn’t have that much to track, I didn’t think that I needed it. Now I will be using a Blackberry and relying much more heavily on e-mail and telephone contact prior to the face-to-face action. This is an exciting change and I am looking forward to being able to implement some new hacks and tools for my system. (My initial searching has turned up some hints that there are a lot out there.)

Does anyone have any advice, tips, tricks or pointers that you can share? I would appreciate all of the help I can get, I suspect that I am going to need it. Thanks in advance!
