There are few business activities that offer greater value than meeting directly with your prospects, current customers, and team members. After all, emails and team chats only go so far.
But the work behind setting up those meetings—finding a time, sending conferencing links, and sharing transcripts—takes a lot of planning and effort.
Fortunately, with Zapier's automated workflows—called Zaps—you can automate most of the tasks involved in scheduling, confirming, and following up on meetings. Here are a few of the top ways to streamline common meeting tasks that get in the way of doing actual work.

Sync bookings and attendees across apps
Do you use scheduling apps like Calendly or YouCanBookMe so customers can book time with you? Those tools are great options for booking sales calls with leads, but you'll want to let the rest of your team know when you're busy to avoid double bookings.
With Zapier, you can automatically keep all your calendars in sync. Every time an external guest books a call with you, these Zaps will automatically create detailed events in your work calendar so no meeting ever falls through the cracks.

The same goes for your meeting attendees. Say a lead books a call with you through your scheduling app. It makes sense that you'd want to add them to your CRM and email list so you can continue nurturing them.
And, if they're already a customer, it helps to record that interaction so your team has the latest details on hand in the future. These Zaps will take care of that whole process, adding them straight to your marketing app of choice the moment a call is booked:

Track and share recordings
If you take the trouble to record your calls, it helps to have a good place (like Google Sheets) to log them for posterity.
That way, your other team members can easily access them if they miss a company-wide meeting or need to catch up on things after a vacation. But doing this manually is a recipe for disaster—I can't count the times I've forgotten to add something to a spreadsheet after a call.
