10 Gmail Tweaks You Need to Make Right Now

September 25 2014

Guest contributor Stefanie Hahn of REALTOR®Mag says:

Gmail realtormagWe have all been there: inbox hell, a demon dimension that seems to suck us in and keep us there, pouring through endless requests and truly wasting more of our day than should be possible. It is time to Scooby-up and take back our inboxes.

Here are 10 tweaks for your Gmail that I hope will allow you to flex your muscles and finally reclaim your inbox. Wherever possible, I have included links to the tools I mention within the article. Most of the others are Gmail Labs that can be found and enabled by clicking on the gear at the top right of your Gmail, clicking on Settings, and then clicking on the Labs tab.

Send from Gmail (Chrome extension)

This is my personal favorite and one that makes most agents sigh with delight. You know when you are online and you are looking for an email address for a listing agent, but all you see is a link that says "Click here to email"? So you click the link and — ugh! — Outlook opens? You quickly hit the cancel button three times to make it go away because you don't even want to go there. When you finally abort the Outlook setup, go enable the "Send from Gmail" extension, and next time you click on the email icon, this extension will open a lovely little Gmail compose box. Problem solved.
