Why this helps
Recurring meetings accumulate silently. You don't realize how much of your time is locked into repeating meetings until you're drowning in them every week.
- See your entire recurring meeting load in one place
- Spot meetings that might no longer be necessary
- Identify patterns in who you meet with regularly
- Calculate total time commitment to recurring meetings
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Google Calendar and Google Sheets to Notis
- 2Tell Notis: 'When I create a recurring meeting, log it to my recurring meetings sheet with the title, frequency (daily/weekly/monthly), attendees, duration, and estimated total monthly hours'
- 3Create a recurring meetings tracker sheet or let Notis set one up
- 4Choose your notification channel
- 5Test by creating or updating a recurring meeting
Questions about this workflow
Will it catch recurring meetings I already have?
Notis starts tracking from the moment you enable this workflow. For existing recurring meetings, you can ask Notis to do a one-time import of your current recurring events.
What if I modify one instance of a recurring meeting?
Notis logs the overall recurring series. Individual instance modifications won't change the series log unless you fundamentally change the recurrence pattern.
Can I see which recurring meetings are with which teams or clients?
Yes. Notis can categorize by attendees, project tags, or custom fields so you can see meeting patterns by group.
Is there a way to spot redundant recurring meetings?
Over time, your log will show overlapping meetings with the same attendees. You can use that data to propose consolidation or cancellation.
