Like anyone else who owns an email account, you are probably bombarded by promotional emails disguised as “newsletters” everyday. From GRQ (get rich quick) offers to viagra online – heck, you may be receiving at least 50 emails you never care to read every day.
Do you have to squander on a pile of email messages to find the mail you’re interested in? Chances are, you’re losing at least 30 minutes of your time just to even open up the mail you’re interested with.
If you’ve started ignoring the newsletters or email lists you’re subscribed to or if you never even read a single message from a certain newsletter, perhaps it’s time to do yourself a favor by unsubscribing to email lists that are nothing but time wasters as they only clog your inbox without really delivering real value to you.
I personally am subscribed to a lot of different email lists, most of which I don’t even remember signing up for. The web of course if filled with people and companies who are in the business of selling our information so if you’re wondering how some self-proclaimed guru got into your inbox without your “permission”, it could only mean two things. You either subscribed to his list or forgot it or some dude you’re subscribed to shared your email for a monetary return.
As you know, subscribing is easier than unsubscribing, but fiddling through your inbox and manually unsubscribing to probably a hundred email subscription is a pain in the butt and will probably take you two weeks to accomplish your goal of a fresher, cleaner and stress free inbox.
