Introduction
Did you know the average office worker spends up to 3.6 hours every day just searching for information? That is nearly half the workday lost to digging through emails and files, and over 80 percent of that data is locked away in email accounts. Even more staggering, each employee generates close to 6,000 unnecessary and ignored email attachments every year, wasting storage, bandwidth, and productivity.
Now imagine the impact if your company could automatically collect, categorize, and centralize every email attachment in one organized place. No more endless searching, no more missed documents, and no more wasted hours.
Export to Sheets is here to make that vision a reality. This automated email attachment manager transforms chaos into clarity by exporting emails to sheets, complete with clickable attachment links and user-based tabs. With Export to Sheets, your entire team gains instant control and visibility over every file, so you can focus on work that matters.
Why Managing Email Attachments Matters
Every day, critical documents race through your company’s inboxes—contracts, invoices, proposals, presentations, and so much more. When these attachments are scattered and buried in individual email accounts, teamwork grinds to a halt and important files slip through the cracks. According to Accenture, 59 percent of middle managers in large companies miss important information almost every day because it exists within the company but they cannot find it.
Export to Sheets changes the game by giving your entire organization a single, organized view of every attachment. No more chasing down files or worrying about compliance gaps. With everything collected and accessible in one place, your team can collaborate faster and stay confidently in control.
The Real Cost of Lost Emails and Attachments
When important documents go missing, the consequences can ripple throughout your business. Lost files slow down projects, frustrate clients, and sometimes even trigger costly legal disputes. According to IDC, companies lose an average of $2.5 million each year simply because employees cannot locate or retrieve critical information. The result is wasted time, missed deadlines, and unnecessary stress for everyone involved.
Export to Sheets puts an end to this chaos. Every attachment is automatically collected, backed up, and organized so you always know exactly where to find it. With everything accessible in one place, you can protect your company from costly mistakes and keep your team moving forward with confidence.
