The challenge of managing a team
If you manage a team, it may seem that a good majority of your time is spent following up on what your employees have accomplished and then compiling reports for your boss or clients. And if you manage a remote team or even a team spread across many locations, it can be frustrating to try to stay aware of what they’ve accomplished each day. Think of how much time you’d save, and time that you could devote to your other duties and responsibilities, if you didn’t have to track down and collect each one of your team members’ reports at the end of each day or week.
Imagine what it would be like to have a daily reporting tool that encourages collaboration, openness, friendliness, and gratitude. Well, you don’t have to imagine it any more. IDoneThis.com has made it a reality, a reality that’s bound to streamline and improve your daily work experience.

This email will ask a simple question: “What’d you get done today?” All you and your team members have to do is hit reply and answer the question.
