Ask the coach: How to fully maximise the use of the technology to be more efficient in your work

Our expert property management coach, Heidi Walkinshaw, answers the question on fully maximising the use of the technology to be more efficient in your work.

Q. I have so many different programs to use on a daily basis and still the emails and calls don’t stop! Where can I make our tech more efficient?

Day to day property management demands and the changes that are constantly happening with technology can at times be incredibly overwhelming.

One of the things that we can do in trying to get on top is to first take a look at the current technology that you are using and see that you understand how to use it and to its full capacity.

With all of the software that you are using, it is likely that many of the programs will integrate and there will be little tips and tricks within those programs to save you time in your day. Believe it or not, they are designed to be able to save you time and make life easier!

If you are not sure about how to use certain features within the software, take a look at the help or knowledge library options that many of the programs have. Failing that, contact the companies directly and ask about options for training on their software.

If you get really stuck, give the team at Real+ a call and we will see what we can do to help you untangle those tech woes and take control of the email beast.
