There are three things that you should do to keep yourself ahead of the curve so to speak:

1. Prepare before going into the meeting, review any notes, make sure you know who is attending, and take along something to write notes on if you cannot do so during the meeting. The notepad is most useful when attending networking events.
2. Jot down quick notes while in the meeting or if you are at a networking event, write cryptic notes on the back of the person's business card.

   Customer Support: What Does Yours Say?
   Whether you are talking about customer support software or you are talking about those employees that answer the phones, what does your customer support say about you? It should portray to the customer that you are dedicated to them and tha
   own to slip out of the meeting for a couple of minutes to jot things down on a notepad I always carry with me. If it were polite, I would record the conversations. Carrying the notepad certainly makes it easier because you can slip out for a short while to make the notes. Before I go into a meeting, I am always prepared. I try to find out who will be attending and what their positions are. I may not find out much more than that but I can gear my presentation (if I am giving one) to the right audience.

            Building Attitudes for Positive Results
            Your ability to build success attitudes and winning habits is of primary importance in the achievement of your personal goals. By eliminating harmful, unproductive attitudes and replacing them with constructive, positive ones, you will begi

         5. Always have a pen and paper available for taking down more detailed information. Some of you might think that using a PDA such as a Palm Pilot would be preferable. I find that I am not as fast at taking notes with mine and that pen and paper are much quicker in a pinch.

         Summing up the information at the end of the day by going through your new business card acquisitions and other notes is a must. If you leave the information overnight, you will forget some of the impact of the conversation. Make the notes while it is fresh in your mind. If you promised a meeting, update your calendar at the same time.
