How to Use Sticky Notes With Outlook for Better Emails
Sticky notes have been a vital tool for busy individuals for years now. They allow you to quickly jot down important reminders, phone numbers, and notes. But did you know that you can also use sticky notes with Microsoft Outlook to improve your email game? Here’s how:
Step 1: Create a new note
Open the Microsoft Sticky Notes app on your computer and create a new sticky note. You can do this by clicking the “+” button at the top left corner of the app or using the keyboard shortcut ‘Windows key + N.’
Step 2: Write down your email reminder
Write down the email you need to send or a key point you want to emphasize in your email.
Step 3: Save the note
Once you’ve written down your reminder, save the note by clicking the “X” button at the top right corner of the note. This will save the sticky note to your computer.
Step 4: Attach the note to your email
Open Outlook and create a new email. Click on the paper clip icon which is for attachments and select “attach a file” option with the sticky note. Select the sticky note you saved in Step 3, and it will be attached to your email.
Step 5: Send your email with the note
Now, send your email like you would normally. The sticky note will stay attached to the email, making it easier to remember the important information or key points you want to emphasize.
Using sticky notes with Outlook can improve your email game by helping you remember to send important emails or include important information in your messages. You can also use sticky notes to remind yourself of follow-up tasks related to a particular email. Here are some tips to make using sticky notes with Outlook even more effective:
– Use different colors for different types of notes. You might use a green note to remind you to follow up on a project, and a blue note to remind you to send a specific email.
– Make good use of the “pin” feature. Pinning a sticky note to your desktop or taskbar means it will always be easily accessible, even when you have lots of windows open.
– Don’t clutter up your notes. Stick to the most important information and keep your notes brief and to the point.
In conclusion, incorporating sticky notes with Microsoft Outlook can improve your email game by reminding you of important information or key points to emphasize in your messages. By using different colors and pinning your notes to your desktop or taskbar, you can make them even more effective.
