It sounds like you need an email filter there, too. You can use subject line text in combination with the sender name to eliminate those and still allow other LinkedIn communications to hit your inbox if you so desire. As for matching webinar & event emails with what fits your schedule, yes, you'll find a number of VC firms ready to fund that one!

I plugged in reminders in my Calendar for any emails flagged as follow-up. This morning I had maybe 25 emails and I'm down to zero again. Feel liberating and although it takes some time, I now have a greater sense of focus. Shally Steckerl wrote something about this and if he can do it, anybody can.
