How to Automate Meeting & Session Notes as a Tax Preparer
Tax season means jumping between 15-minute client calls and deep filing work. Trying to manually track details like Linda Park's new rental depreciation or the Kowalski family's missing 1099-INT while managing 130 files leads to sticky notes on coffee mugs and lost data.
The Current Reality
The Manual Way
Scratching details on Post-its during calls, then typing them into spreadsheets later. You often lose context or misplace the note entirely.
- Grab a physical notepad or sticky note before the client call starts
- Frantically write down numbers like '$4,200 home office' while listening
- Stick the note somewhere visible, where it often gets buried or lost
- Stop current filing work to manually type notes into the client spreadsheet
- Realize handwriting is illegible and email the client to re-ask the question
