How to Run a Great Meeting on Meetcatcher
A Meetcatcher call might last only ten minutes, but it can change the direction of your business. In such a short time, you can meet a potential client, partner, or even investor — if you use the time well. Here’s how to make your Meetcatcher meetings clear, professional, and memorable.
1. Start strong: introductions matter
Every meeting starts with a short moment of orientation. Take the first 30–60 seconds to introduce yourself and explain what you do.
Something like:
Hi, I’m Laura. We help SaaS teams reduce churn by mapping client behavior. I came across your profile and thought it could be interesting for us to connect. I’d like to briefly introduce what we do and see if there might be a good fit for collaboration.
It may sound obvious, but this quick structure creates a friendly, equal atmosphere and helps both sides align expectations from the start.
Remember — this isn’t a cold call. You’re both here because you chose to be.
2. Understand the roles
Meetcatcher connects two roles:
- The organizer, who initiated the meeting and spent credits to make it happen.
- The invitee, who accepted and shows up prepared to talk.
The organizer usually leads the flow, but both sides should keep the conversation balanced. Think of it as a two-way exchange, not a one-sided pitch.
If you’re the organizer, start by saying what caught your interest about the other person’s profile. If you’re the invitee, share how your experience or company might connect with their goals. The best meetings feel like a collaboration from the first minute.
3. Use your time wisely
Ten minutes fly by fast — and that’s the point. Meetcatcher calls are intentionally short to help you get to the essence without unnecessary small talk.
A practical structure could look like this:
- Introduction (1 min) – who you are, what you do.
- Core discussion (6–8 min) – why you connected, how your work overlaps, what problems you could solve together.
- Next steps (1–2 min) – what happens after the call (follow-up email, shared contact, or second meeting).
If you need longer conversations later, you can always arrange them privately — but these first minutes decide whether it’s worth pursuing.
You’ll be surprised how much can be achieved in 10 minutes,” says one Meetcatcher user. “It forces clarity and focus — and that’s exactly what busy people appreciate.
4. Use screen sharing when possible
Visuals help you stand out. If you have a deck, demo, or a quick mock-up, share your screen. Seeing your product, not just hearing about it, makes the meeting more engaging and helps the other person remember you later.
It doesn’t need to be perfect — even showing a quick website walkthrough or a simple dashboard makes your offer more tangible.
Many users report that meetings with visual demos convert into follow-up calls up to 50% more often than those without.
5. Always exchange contact information
Meetcatcher protects privacy — you won’t see the other person’s email or phone number unless they share it directly. That’s why, if you sense potential collaboration, ask for contact details before the call ends.
You can exchange:
- LinkedIn profiles
- Emails
- Phone numbers (if you plan to continue via call or WhatsApp)
If you forget to do this, you won’t be able to reach them afterward. So when wrapping up, just say:
This was great — could we connect on LinkedIn or by email to continue the conversation?
Simple, polite, and effective.
6. Expect a short grace period
Each Meetcatcher meeting officially lasts 10 minutes, but there’s a small buffer — in practice, the room stays open for a few more minutes. This means the conversation won’t cut off abruptly, and you’ll have a little extra time to wrap up.
However, don’t rely on it. If the system closes after exactly ten minutes, it’s designed that way — to keep the rhythm fast and the experience consistent. It’s better to finish slightly early than to be cut off mid-sentence.
7. Keep it human
Meetcatcher isn’t just a sales platform — it’s a place for authentic professional encounters. Approach each call with curiosity, not just an agenda. People remember how you make them feel far more than what you say.
Be natural, smile, and stay focused. In ten minutes, you can’t do everything — but you can start something meaningful.
Final note
The best Meetcatcher users treat every meeting like an opportunity — not just to sell, but to listen, connect, and learn. By introducing yourself clearly, managing your time well, and following up afterward, you’ll turn short online calls into real-world business growth.
