## Leverage Email Aliases whenever you can

In my [Top 8 Productivity Tips for Work video](https://youtu.be/QHrWMMlVYRA?ref=jeffsu.org), I mentioned why using team aliases instead of individual emails for recurring meetings saves time in the long run since people might join or leave the team:

**💡 The same idea applies to Google Chat as well!**

If you have a Space for a team, you can create the space using the team alias as opposed to adding each person individually:

This way, whenever a new person joins or leaves the team, you can make a 1-time change to the corresponding [Google Group](https://groups.google.com/my-groups?ref=jeffsu.org) instead of updating each calendar event and each Chat Space!
