Description
In today's busy world of schedules and information overload, the Forces of Chaos are at an all-time high. Professionals everywhere desperately want to zip through tough tasks, jammed inboxes, and never-ending interruptions - but despite their best efforts they increasingly fall behind and often fail big time. After running in place at work for years like rodents on a wheel, some professionals even tragically morph into hamsters!
This is the story of Z - a productivity super hero who helps business hamsters regain their humanity. Using his simple, superhuman-strength, not-so-secret weapon, ZIP! (TM) Tips, Z helps his friend Harold morph back into a human being. A small number of high-impact tech tips, ZIP! is, as Z describes it, lightning in a bottle - a hurricane in a can. ZIP! is rocket fuel for careers and a spa day for the stressed-out soul. And best of all, ZIP! Tips get the hamster in all of us off the wheel once and for all.
