This is the third one of the series. The first two were really popular and I think it’s because you get to hear from real listeners on the SuperFastBusiness show. People are dialing in and leaving messages, you can do this by going down to the bottom of the site on SuperFastBusiness.com and using the “Leave Voice Message” option and using the microphone on your computer, you can leave your voice for me. And if you get featured in the show, then I will answer your question or if it’s just a comment then I’ll play that and I really want to know how you’re going. I’ve got a sense that you’re enjoying the show because with three-and-a-half thousand page views a day, SuperFastBusiness is getting really strong and that’s because I’m using the OwnTheRacecourse methodology. If you want to understand how that works, go to OwnTheRacecourse.com and put your email address. You’ll be able to get the entire course for free, this used to be a paid course but you can get it for free, and it will show you how to build a powerful authority blog just like SuperFastBusiness.com, which is actually the case study. Alright, let’s get straight to the listener questions and here we go. Listener:      Check, check, check…test t-test… James:        Yup buddy, it actually does work, so let’s try again. Listener:      Hi James, this is John Rose. I just switched over to your weekly update. I get a lot of emails and I was having trouble with just your daily updates just been giving you the time that it deserves. So hopefully with the weekly updates, I’ll be able to spend a little bit more time reading some of your material and using it to help me build my business. So, hopefully that will work because I just get too much, too many emails and we’ll see if that will work so I guess I could give you the time it deserves. Thanks, bye. James:          Hey John, thank you. Listen, email is such a huge problem for most entrepreneurs and I suspect most people just get to their computer, open up the email and then, the next few hours, are being bombarded with sales messaging. They might go and buy a course because there’s a very compelling sales copy, they never finish it and then the same little “rat race” happens next day back on the treadmill. You’ve got to cut down your emails. Certainly with my emails, you can click on the link that says “Send it to me weekly”. Another great thing you can do is go to iTunes, there’s actually a link to my iTunes channel on the top of SuperFastBusiness.com. Click on that and subscribe so that you automatically get the audio versions of every post then you can listen to it while you’re walking the dog, going to the gym or doing something like catching a bus. So, that’s one way to really get these short messages. Most of my podcasts are only a few minutes long and the feature ones like this are generally under half an hour. So, get that subscription happening and go back to your email and see what you can do to cull it right down. There is a course called Inbox Relief, and this has saved hundreds of people from the dreaded inbox overload. I’ve certainly been using these principles for years to get the control of my inbox,
