Returning From Holiday Heaven to Email Hell Leaves Users Overwhelmed, Stressed and Depressed


LONDON, September 16 /PRNewswire/ --     Most of us dread coming back from holiday to face an inbox full of emails
(assuming of course we are not so addicted to email that we are replying to
them on the beach). According to research carried out by email productivity
experts Emailogic, this prospect leaves many users feeling "overwhelmed,
stressed and depressed". One respondent even claimed to feel "suicidal" when
confronted with the task of quickly sorting what was urgent from what was not
before normal business communications could resume.

"57% of respondents said they were receiving more emails than they were
a year ago," said Marc Powell, Managing Director of Emailogic, "and the
problem is particularly acute at holiday periods. That is why we are
launching our top tips and strategies for reducing your inbox before you
go away and dealing with holiday email overload when you return."

Emailogic delivers an award-winning classroom or computer-based 90
minute best-practice email course, which can result in delegates reducing the
contents of their in boxes by 40% and the time spent on email by 30
minutes or more every day. Communications are improved and stress caused by
the obligation to respond quickly can also be reduced. Emailogic has been in
business for 10 years and its client base includes HSBC, L'Oréal, MOD,
O2 and even London Zoo. Over 100,000 email users have attended Emailogic
training.

"With business users of email sending and receiving an average of 167
emails every day, there are so many ways the burden can be lifted,"' says
Powell, "and this really matters in today's economic climate, in which
companies are cutting back on staff and still requiring the same productivity
and output." Our training is not only practical and proven but the return on
investment is measurable too. All training decision-makers require this
now.
