Client memory that travels with you

Café meetings, calls between engagements, a detail a client mentioned in passing: captured wherever it happens, so prep never starts from a blank page.

  • No bot in the room

Due today

Every client conversation, wherever it happens

  • Zoom
  • Google Meet
  • Teams
  • Slack Huddles
  • FaceTime
  • Webex
  • Discord
  • Phone call
  • Across the table

Recording happens on your own Mac or iPhone. Nothing joins the call and nothing appears in the participant list, so the client only ever sees you.

How an engagement runs on Cordia

Three things an engagement asks of you. Capture it wherever it happens, write it up the same way every time, and stop redoing the work in between.

01Wherever it happens

A café table is a client meeting too

Consulting is not a desk job. The conversation that changes the engagement is as likely to happen over coffee as on a call.

Let's keep scope to six weeks, two workshops — nothing more for now.

And a written update every other Friday, so nothing sits in an inbox.

Always get consent while transcribing others.

Pause

In-person meetings, captured the same way

Client meetings rarely happen at a desk. Record from your iOS device at a café or their office, and the notes write themselves up the same way a Mac recording would.

One page per client

Scope, decisions, the small details that make a relationship personal: they collect on the client's page and compound over the length of the engagement.

See the contact page
02Written up the same way

Every call comes back in one shape, and answers back

Set the sections once and the engagement writes itself up that way — then ask your own notes what was agreed, instead of re-reading them.

03Every time, not once

Stop rebuilding the work you have already done

The recap, the status update, the first nudge after a kickoff: the same steps on every engagement. Save them once and run them.

Run repeat work as a play

Meeting prep, a status update, the first follow-up after a kickoff: save the steps you always take once, then run that play on any client.

📋Post-kickoff recap

/Post-kickoff recap

The three things you always send after a kickoff, drafted from the conversation you just had.

Made byCordiaLast run in MarchPublicEveryone

Prompt

  1. Recap what we agreed, in their words not mine.
  2. Confirm the next two dates and who owns what.
  3. Flag anything that moved since the last update.
Three clients later

One kickoff, remembered two ways.

The client is running one engagement. You are running four. They will remember exactly what was agreed at the table; this is the difference on your side.

In Mind

Priya — the COO at Halden. or was it Holden
six weeks? or was six the number of workshops
something about phase two waiting on the pilot
she wanted updates … fortnightly? monthly?
I said I'd send a recap — that was Tuesday. or Monday

Summary

Scope confirmed. Wants a status update every other Friday.

Key Points
  • Six-week ops review: two workshops, one pilot, one readout.
  • Phase two is gated on the pilot landing, not on the calendar.

Questions

Both. Every client starts private to you; share a client with a collaborator when you're working an engagement together.

Prep never starts
from a blank page.

Scope, decisions, and the detail they mentioned in passing. Kept with the client who said it, wherever you were sitting.
