Scheduling Emails in Gmail: Boomerang & Right Inbox

For those of you who are Gmail users, I encourage you to check out either of the following extensions for scheduling emails to send at a later date/time: Boomerang for Gmail and Right Inbox for Gmail.  With the free version of each extension, you can only schedule a limited number per month (10), but it's still worth it!  Besides scheduling emails to send at a later time, you can set up reminders, add notes, and set up recurring emails.  Here's a brief summary of each add-on:




Boomerang is a helpful Google Chrome extension you can add from the Chrome Web Store. Boomerang allows you to write an email now and schedule it to be sent automatically at the perfect time. You can also set up reminders so you don’t lose track of important emails and set up reminders if you don’t hear back within a specific time frame after sending a message.

Similarly, Right Inbox is another Google Chrome extension that's also accessed from the Chrome Web Store


It integrates with Gmail and lets you schedule emails to be delivered at a future time.  Once the extension is added, you'll notice additional buttons available on your Compose window within Gmail:





Go ahead and add one of these to your Chrome extensions. You’ll love it!
