Ever had one of those days where your brain just goes on autopilot? I once sent a follow-up email with the subject line ‘Pizza Order Confirmation’ to a client instead of a lead I was nurturing. Safe to say, I received some very confused responses; it’s a good reminder that even pros need to find moments to laugh at our own slip-ups.
I’ve definitely had my fair share of mix-ups too — last week I sent a client a note about a sale instead of my boss — > find moments to laugh at our own slip-ups. That’s so true! I find taking a moment to double-check my emails helps, or even just logging out and back in for a fresh perspective.
It’s funny how easily we can mix things up; I once scheduled a sales call during my lunch break and ended up at the wrong table! Maybe a good rule of thumb is to double-check those subject lines before hitting send — what’s been your biggest laugh from a mix-up?
