To improve meeting attendance and save time, automation can be used to send reminders and notifications to team members about upcoming meetings. Zapier is a workflow automation software that allows users to create custom workflows, known as Zaps, to automate tasks such as sending automatic reminder emails or messages ahead of scheduled meetings. With Zapier, users can connect their calendar apps with their communication platforms, such as Slack or Discord, and set up notifications for new events, including meeting reminders. This approach helps teams stay organized and focused on higher-priority tasks, while also reducing the need for manual reminders and copying/pasting Zoom links into team chats. By leveraging Zapier's automation capabilities, users can streamline their workflow and save valuable time to focus on more important tasks.
