For the past few weeks I’ve been using NutshellMail, an email tool that helps business owners and marketers better manage their time and networks though flexible email delivery.

NutshellMail rocks.

I could stop my review at this point, but you’d probably want some more information before trying out NutshellMail for yourself.

Setting Up NutshellMail

Setup is free and easy. Just visit the NutshellMail web site and click on “Create an Account” in the upper right corner.

From there you’ll be taken to a page where you enter in your email, create a password, and choose which of your social media accounts you want to receive updates from.

Currently NutshellMail supports Facebook, Twitter, MySpace & LinkedIn.

For networks that allow multiple accounts (Twitter & MySpace) you can enter multiple accounts. For Facebook, you can get your personal activity, as well as activity from your pages.

Once you’ve set this all up I recommend going with the default settings at first; once you receive a few emails from Nutshell you’ll be able to tweak your account to maximize its effectiveness for you.

Customizing NutshellMail for Maximum Efficiency

What I may like best about Nutshell is how easy it is to customize the emails you receive. By default, Nutshell will craft an email of all your online activity three times a day, 7 days a week. However, it’s easy enough to have it deliver 1, 2 or 24 times a day. Or not on the weekends. Or only on the weekends. Maybe you just want a daily digest delivered at noon so you can see what’s going on while you eat lunch at your desk.

(BTW, eating lunch at your desk every day is the leading cause of job dissatisfaction, so go out to eat or chat up someone new in the lunchroom. Like that cutie from accounting.) (more…)
