I’m sure he checks his email daily if he’s successful with GTD. Though each real GTDer checks GTDTimes at least weekly.

Could be he’s just not hooked in to GTD Times.

I found that it was much easier to manange the tasks and projects within my GTD system.

There’s no real email and no comments here from him. Doesn’t look like a real GTDer who is keen on reading davidco.com and gtdtimes.com.

I should have been clearer in what I wrote. I didn’t mean that the discussion forum has something specifically about Arthur’s system, just that there are threads about the use of GTD in sales, as well as project management. I apologize for the confusion.

Best,
John

It looks like this Arthur was created by davidco marketing staff.

As a CRM consultant, I hear too often this type of GTD-style functionality that is missing from too many system implementations.

With the right degree of forethought to create project lists and next actions into the force.com workflow, the reverse could be true as well.

I wish we had more details about the system, but those weren’t included. If this is a topic you’d like to explore more deeply, you’ll find discussion about it on the David Allen Company forum, here:

It’s been a fight to match GTD with sales – I work in a 2 man insurance office and it always seems like leads are slipping through (of course, it’d help too if my office-mate GTD’d too, but that’s another project ;)
