I wanted to point out the entry, The Single Fastest Thing You Can Do to Increase Trust, from Trusted Advisor. This interested me because Charlie’s reasons really did make sense, but I read a lot about Tim Ferriss and the The 4-Hour Workweek for last week’s post on Entrepreneurial Time Management and Discipline. While reading Tim’s work, I was thinking about the kinds of ideas that Charlie is talking about in his article—that is, scheduling your e-mail and making people wait on you may be good for you, but it’s probably not the best idea for building solid client relationships. I think there’s a careful balance between Tim’s response and Charlie’s. Currently, I tend to lean more towards Charlie’s response.
