They’re great, but don’t lean on them too hard! They might miss the vibes and sentiments that can make or break a meeting.We both agree on one thing: buffer time is a must! After a call, take 15 minutes – use tools like Reclaim.ai – to get your documentation and follow-up tasks on point. Templates are your best friends here.
