Invest in a Typing Course

You may be like many small business owners, and learning to type was not a priority in high school. I'm glad I did, and often see others struggle with email because typing wasn't an important part of their education. Invest in a typing course. It will be worth your time.

Here's a free typing test online that you may want to try. I clocked in just under 70 words per minute.

There are great software programs available now, and taking daily lessons for 15-30 minutes could enhance your skills in a surprisingly short time. Experienced typists could benefit as well.

Learn at a steady pace in your spare time. Email, reports, and just taking notes will be so much easier. Comments or questions are welcome.
