Introducing Quick Brief: The End of 'What's This Meeting About?'

How capturing context before the calendar transforms your meetings into productive conversations.

The Problem with Modern Meetings

We've all been there. You accept a meeting invite, show up at the scheduled time, and the first five minutes are spent figuring out why everyone is in the room. "So... what did you want to discuss?"

This isn't just awkward—it's wasteful. Studies show that poorly prepared meetings cost organizations billions in lost productivity each year.

Enter Quick Brief

Quick Brief is MochiMeet's answer to meeting ambiguity. Instead of letting guests book any available slot and hoping for context, we flip the script.

Here's how it works:

  • **Purpose First**: Before seeing any time slots, guests select their meeting purpose from options you define (like "Demo request", "Technical discussion", or "General chat").
  • **Micro Questions**: Based on their selection, they answer 2-3 short questions that help you prepare. For a demo, that might be "What problem are you trying to solve?" and "Have you used similar tools before?"
  • **Then Schedule**: Only after completing the Quick Brief do guests see available times.
  • The Meeting Brief

    All those answers get compiled into a clean Meeting Brief that's:

  • Attached to your calendar event
  • Included in confirmation emails
  • Visible on the booking confirmation page
  • Now when you walk into a meeting, you know exactly:

  • Why they're meeting with you
  • What they hope to accomplish
  • Any relevant context or links
  • Why It Works

    Quick Brief works because it:

  • **Respects both parties**: Guests appreciate the structure, and hosts appreciate the preparation
  • **Filters serious requests**: The small friction filters out low-intent bookings
  • **Saves time**: No more "catch me up" moments at the start of calls
  • Getting Started

    Quick Brief is available on all MochiMeet plans. To set it up:

  • Go to your booking page editor
  • Navigate to the "Booking" tab
  • Add your reasons and questions
  • Start with 3-4 common meeting types and refine from there based on what you learn.
