Is this guaranteed? What if I don't get 1 to 2 hours back a day

This can only happen for 2 reasons, you don't get it back because you have not implemented anything. Or you are already extremely efficient and you didn't need my help in the first place. However, that said, even the most efficient people love our programs and get something out of them.

How hard is it to implement?

All of our solutions are easy to implement. In fact everything you need is usually at your finger tips you just have not been shown how to use it efficiently and effectively. Check our feedback. The same theme comes out over and over again - how easy our solutions are to implement.

Is this course mostly about outlook? What if I don't use outlook? What if I’m not good with IT?

Time Equals Money shows you a few essential components in Outlook to help you manage and track all you need to do. It is not an Outlook heavy course. Everything we show you can be applied in whatever email program you use as long as it has a calendar.

We can adapt our principles and solutions to your which ever program you use. Currently we are proficient with Lotus notes and GroupWise but really there is no program we cannot work out because we know what we are looking for.

We have other training programs that focus entirely on Outlook.

What makes this course different to any other time management course?

  1. We don’t like to waste our time any more than we want to take yours up unnecessarily. Time Equals Money is all over and done with in half a day!

With Time Equals Money Workshops you actually get time to implement what you learn… how many courses to you do that with?
  2. After doing Time Equals Money (and taking some action when you get back to work) you are a 1000x better off! Your desk and your inbox should be clear (when did that last happen?), any new work or calls that came in while you were at training managed and you are ready to move forward much more confidently and in charge than you did before you came. Time Equals Money is not a bunch of theories. It is real practical solutions that you can implement immediately to see results instantly.
  3. You don’t have to buy extra tools and applications to get time back. Everything you need is usually at your finger tips. We show you how to use them efficiently and effectively.
  4. We specialize in efficiency and effectiveness. All our products relate to our core business. Plus we have worked with hundreds of organisations and over a 1000 different people so we can adapt solutions to you and your challenges instantly.
  5. We offer a double your money back guarantee. We only do this because we know if you take action you will get time back. If you take action and you don’t get time back we will give you double your money back.
  6.

Where we offer solutions and tips on how to manage everyday workplace challenges.
    We also offer implementation coaching straight after the event to help you implement what is going to be most impactful to you.
    Quarterly ‘Spring’ cleans… where every quarter the organisation dedicates 1 to 2 hours to getting back on track! You tell us what you want and we can customise a solution to you.

How long will it take?

The Time Equals Money workshop is half a day.

This can be broken down into 1 hour blocks to fit into your business needs.

Alternatively we do have a home study program that breaks the workshop down into 30 minute blocks if this suits you better.

What do I need to bring to the workshop?

Just a pen and a pair of ears and eyes.

What if it all starts out great but I don’t stick with my new habits? Do you help people beyond your course?

Yes we do. We offer the following:

After the workshop you are able to contact our trainers via the phone or email for 30 days should you have any questions. You get this as part of your investment.

We also send you a Success/Nudge email every week for 4 weeks. These emails keep the workshop principles alive for 30 days rather than just during the workshop and help with challenges you experience as you apply what you learn in real life.

After this you will also receive our newsletter which gives you solutions to everyday work challenges. This will come out to you monthly and will further build on your new skills and abilities.

In addition to what include as part of your investment you also have an opportunity to invest in Implementation Coaching. This is undertaken immediately after the workshop. Through the coaching we get you started and help you implement the outlook component of the course. This way there is no mistakes and you are underway, applying the principles before you leave the workshop.

I've been to these type of courses before, they’re great at the time but then you do nothing with them, what if I go for nothing?

Time Equals Money is a very practical course, it is not full of theories which sound great and motivate you at the time but give you very little practical ideas to implement. Time Equals Money gives you 100s of ways to go forward, and we help you at the end of the workshop to decide what out of everything you have heard what are you going to implement to get maximum impact instantly.

Our post course support is the only one of its kind in the Time Management Industry. It is designed to keep you going and help you with issues that will arise as you apply the techniques. You also get access to us for 30 days to help you through.

If after everything you get for your investment you do nothing, then you were never ready in the first place. So you need to decide before you invest your time and money - do you want to work less and improve your results? Are you sick of your situation the way it is?

I'm really not good with IT, will the Outlook side be beyond me?

I bet I’m the same as you! Or I was before I knew how to use Outlook. Outlook is very easy to use but unless you have the time and the interest you don’t look into how it can help you. We can show you how it can help you so you see how it easy it is, the workbook gives you written instructions and you have access to us for 30 days should you need us to walk you through anything. We also do further courses on Outlook which shows you how to use this tool to do things more efficiently and effectively.

Back to top

I don’t use outlook, is this course for me?

Everything we show you on Outlook can be applied to whatever email program you are using however, most people do not look for what they do not know. Also, a lot of people are not interested or confident with IT to investigate how it can make life easier. Most people are trying to keep their head above water.

Whatever email system you use, providing it has a calendar, you can apply what we teach you. We have notes for other programs too so we can always send these out to you or customise a course for your people.

1 of the questions you should ask is what money back guarantee do you have?

We offer you a double your money back guarantee. So if you implement 3 things and don’t get at least an hour back we will give you double your money back!

Will I need to buy a paper diary or other programs?

NO, and if anyone tells you to use anything other than what you are using it is rubbish. You will probably have everything you need at your finger tips you just don’t know how to use it effectively. The only exception would be is if you want to use an electronic calendar and you don’t have one as part of your email system.

Back to top

Why do I have do I have to use another system?

Good question? Why do you? You don’t. In fact you probably have everything you need at your finger tips you just don’t know how to use it effectively. The only exception would be is if you want to use an electronic calendar and you don’t have one as part of your email system. If you use Outlook express I would suggest you use the full version of Outlook. If you are urged to fill in calendars and buy these annually run a mile. If you are asked to by software ask why how it can help you better than the tool that you currently have available.

Do they specialize in Time Management or is this a product in a suite of products?

If they do not specialize this is just 1 program in amongst many that they present. They may not be able to manage their own time let alone help you manage yours. Only some one who specializes in Time Management can help answer your questions and customise solutions to you on the spot. So make sure you go to someone who is an specialises.

Back to top

What do you specialize in?

We specialize in efficiency. Helping people use the tools at their fingertips efficiently and effectively. You see most time management courses are about effectiveness. You can’t be effective you are drowning and tripping in all the small stuff. You need to have this managed so you can concentrate and focus on your most important work. So you have to be efficient first. If you go to a course that does not address efficiency first then get out of their quickly.

What makes you an expert in efficiency?

You do know my nickname is speedy don’t you? I’ve always been very efficient but believe it does not run in my family! I’ll never forget when I was getting married I helped everyone else get ready, and my mum was late to the wedding! When we moved from Sydney to Perth, I was packed for weeks and my parents started packing when the truck pulled up!!!

But aside from it being a natural talent, for the last 6 years this is what I have trained over 1000 people to do. To date on average they have recovered over 2.3 hours a day. I know what works because of their feedback and results. To stay up to date I read, study, go to time management courses all year long – don’t I have an exciting life!

This is what makes me an expert… I specialize in just this one thing and I am very good at providing 100s of solutions for everyday people that provide relief to their day to day challenges!

What results have you got to date?

To date we have trained just over 1000 people how on average have recovered over 2.3 hours a day and increased productivity by 40%. We know what works because of our clients feedback and results

Back to top

What do other people say about the course?

Every course we do we gauge out of 10 to hear what people rate the course. With 10 being excellent. Now we get 10s every session we run, our average rating to date though is 8.5… not bad out of 10… but don’t take our word for it check our testimonials to see what people have to say.

Can you help people who hate systems?

Time Equals Money is not only about systems but systems give you a routine that help you form habits of which you have now even if you don’t realize it. Really, it is up to you though, you might not be ready to do listen. I have worked with 1000s of people. Each of them have their own working styles. I know I can give you solutions to suit you… but you really need want to work less and improve your results? Until you do best not to invest until you really want to hear how to get back time?

I know this is wrong, but what if I don’t have the time to go to a time management course? I’m too busy.

You have 2 options. 1 is to continue as is. Working long hours. Continuing to experience email stress. Feeling tired, guilty, overwhelmed by all you need to do. Continuing to be frustrated by interruptions, distractions.

Or Option 2 – jump in and do something different.

We promise you will be on the front foot within an hour of implementing what you have learnt. You will know how to work efficiently and effectively possible for the first time in your life. You finally be in control of how you work. It does take an invest of 3 hours up front.. but if we could give you say the minimum 5 extra hours a week and enable you to leave work at a decent hour, get what you need done in the day, hit your targets easier… would this be worth it?
