8 Best Meeting Note-Taking Apps for School Marketers in 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed school organizational culture and practices. Suddenly, personal interactions and meetings were replaced with video conference calls. We might never return to the way we worked before the pandemic, and maybe we shouldn’t. Rather than trying to replace what we perceived as a loss, school marketers should consider looking embracing and enhancing the new norms.

One of the big changes to organizational procedure is the virtual meeting. Love them or hate them, it seems clear that virtual meetings are here to stay. Long advocated by busy school marketers as time-saving and cost-effective, web-based meetings have now become everyday occurrences. To some, they are a blessing — no more pointless, mind-numbing, low-productivity committee meetings — while others feel the richness of in-person communication is lost. Alas, Zoom fatigue is real and distractions are inevitable.

Meeting note-taking apps are advantageous when it comes to virtual meetings. Most of them will:

• Send out an agenda before the meeting to ensure everyone is on the same page
• Take accurate notes during the meeting and record all items discussed
• Log next steps and assign them to the appropriate team or staff member
