Good time management is fundamental for any organization with recurring meetings, reviews, projects, and other important obligations.

To maximize productivity and minimize time waste, it’s important to have a well-organized schedule to handle the required meeting agendas and project timelines.

Growth, the SimplyCast Way

Our Agenda Time Management use case transforms our platform into a one stop shop for productivity. Not just useful for managing your agenda, this use case also functions as a meeting management software and an employee scheduling software, all without any special equipment.

This use case employs multiple communication methods, including meeting agendas, meeting invitation distribution, the ability to share schedules, and meeting topic cues to help your team inject structure into their workday. This approach creates a comprehensive agenda management software for government that helps staff fully realize discussions and overlook no priority.

The Features:

  • Set up an automated appointment reminder campaign to keep your staff on track. Whether it’s to manage your meeting schedule, be available for a client, or to keep to important project timelines, you can assign each automatic reminder a delivery time and date.
  • Personalize your messages, even when sending reminders in bulk.
  • Track notification engagement via automatically generated reports and follow up on unopened messages.

The Benefits:

  • Each automatic reminder keeps staff on task and keep meetings on topic, improving focus and productivity. This minimizes time waste while maximizing engagement.
  • Keeping staff up to date and informed with regular reminders about their project timelines and meeting schedules improves attendance rates and gives everyone an equal opportunity to contribute.
  • By employing hyperautomation to deliver notifications, organizations can simplify communication, reduce administrative workload, and focus their employees on higher priority tasks that require their individual skillsets.
  • Access to statistics like notification engagement and open rates provides insights into each reminder’s effectiveness. Organizations can also see where interest declines and identify weaknesses in agenda planning, improving decision-making from the start.

Actions for Success

  1. Create an automated appointment reminder campaign and establish its notification settings.
  2. Configure when each automatic reminder will go out and to which contacts.
  3. Agenda reports will update automatically when notifications are opened and attendance is confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions

SimplyCast’s Agenda Time Management use case focuses on improving how governments manage meeting agendas and project timelines. Be it for a meeting invitation, a client meeting, or an important deadline, our agenda management software allows organizations to template and configure each automatic reminder to go out prior to the meeting, deadline, or event.

Smart Governments who employ this use case will receive automatically generated reports that show how staff interact with each notification, allowing them to gauge their effectiveness and adjust their notification campaigns accordingly.

One critical aspect of meeting management is ensuring attendees receive prompt notice and essential information, such as meeting agendas and scheduled discussion points. This can present many challenges, such as:

  • The more attendees there are, the greater the workload when keeping them informed.
  • Manual processes can be time consuming and may cause delays.
  • Attendees may miss some notifications, which can lead to them missing out on important information, or missing the meeting entirely.
  • Manual methods lack hyperautomation’s ability to track statistics such as engagement, attendance data, and message open rates.

SimplyCast’s Agenda Time Management use case significantly reduces these challenges and helps Smart Governments manage their meetings with confidence.

Our Agenda Time Management use case helps Smart Governments reduce the risk of missed information by facilitating frequent, personalized alerts with follow-ups on unopened notifications.

  • Improved meeting attendance.
  • More focused and involved discussions.
