    Welcome to farm office toolbox, A step-by-step simple guide to an organized farm office.

    This Episode I speak with Alison Hamilton, a fourth generation farmer, business founder and CEO, industry board director, wife and mum to 2 little people!

    Alison suggested her favourite strategies to start improving your game in your office;

    1. Conduct a 'Functioning Farm Office Health Check'. You will get this as a download by joining the mailing list at her website, click below.
    2. Use the Eisenhower Matrix to help prioritise. DO, Decide, Delegate Delete.
    3. Use a Google Calendar and colour code your commitments, allowing plenty of buffer time for travel and the inevitable interruptions.

  • 3. Paperless or Less Paper
    Dec 11 2023

    Welcome to farm office toolbox, A step-by-step simple guide to an organized farm office.

    This episode I speak with Tracy Minchin of Rural BizAssist. We discuss how we both use a second brain sytem to 'Capture, Process and Review' all the infomation that comes into our lives every week. However we use different tools to that suit our own personal skills and preferences.

    Tracy loves 'Evernote' and encourages you to take the time to learn how to use whichever system you decide to use, to get the most out of it and increase your chance of success with a new tool.

    A second screen is an essential tool to reduce paper use. Tracy suggests a portable USB screen to use with your laptop.

    Regularly doing a brain dump, using Google assistant to make reminders on your phone and a weekly review round out her top tools to reduce overwhelm and work effectively.
