Would you like some brainpower with that coffee?

Cream? Sugar? Marketing secrets? What would you like with your morning coffee? AMA is serving up a jolt of marketing expertise amidst fresh-brewed roundtable discussion on some of the hottest local marketing topics at the Columbus Marketing Association’s monthly open program, Java Talks.

AMA’s February monthly program Java Talks theme is “ways to work better”. Email is one of the mainstay’s for any business person. Especially, a marketer. But what happens when you get so many emails that your Inbox starts to get a life of its own? It’s time for an hour with Samantha Rufo of nxtConcepts. She has devised ways to tame the 100+ (non-spam) emails a day she receives. During February’s Java Talk, she will share a few of her secrets.

Take your coffee with Samantha Rufo

As President of nxtConcepts, Samantha spends the majority of her day educating companies in innovative new ways to market using cutting-edge technology. That usually translates into to a lot of emails! After years of dealing with an average of 100 or more emails a day from clients, co-workers, media, vendors, potential clients, associations that she’s a part of, friends, and family, she has come up with tried and true methods to “get a handle” on email.

Samantha will share insights into obvious and non-obvious ways to deal with the worst email offenders--clients and coworkers! Her 15 minute talk will kick off an enlightening Q&A and open discussion about practical coping strategies that will help to put a semblance of order back into your Inbox.

No RSVP is needed for “Getting a Handle on Email Overload” with Samantha Rufo and the Columbus AMA on Friday morning, February 25 from 7:30 a.m.– 8:30 a.m a the Lennox Town Center Barnes & Noble, Columbus, OH.
