Pain points

Before the Journey:
Missed Meetings and Inconvenient Timing:
Alex faces challenges with time calculations across different time zones, leading to missed meetings or inconvenient scheduling.
Solution: Implement an automated time zone converter that accurately calculates meeting times based on the client’s location.
Lack of Schedule and Meeting Information:
Not having access to the client’s calendar, previous conversation notes, or meeting details causes inefficiencies.
Solution: Integrate tools that provide real-time access to client calendars, meeting history, and relevant reports, notes and data.
During the Journey:
Managing Time Zones:
Alex needs to keep track of time zones between various origin, connecting, and destination cities.
Solution: Use a travel app that displays local times for different locations and adjusts reminders accordingly.
Avoiding Scheduling Issues:
Keeping track of current meeting times and notifying the next client about any delays is crucial.
Solution: Set up automated alerts for meeting start times and communicate proactively with clients if there are delays.
App Switching During Meetings:
Juggling multiple apps (chat, email, documents, calendar, etc.) during meetings disrupts focus.
Solution: Optimize workflow by using an integrated platform that consolidates communication, note-taking, and reference materials.
