Costco Wholesale Membership Update

Yes, I can cover it.

For the meeting flow, I’d start with the open questions you listed and then group them into three buckets: what needs a decision, what needs a quick check, and what can wait.

If you want, send me the latest outline and I’ll mark where the handoffs happen so nobody talks over each other.

On the notes, I’d keep them short: decisions first, then action items with an owner, then parking lot topics at the end.

About the agenda length, I think it’s fine to keep it tight and push deep-dive items to a separate slot rather than stretching one call.

I can also draft a quick recap message afterward if you tell me who the final audience is and what tone you want.

Let me know if you prefer bullets or full sentences.

Costco Wholesale Member Support

I checked your question about the schedule, and I think the easiest approach is to keep the prep simple.

If you’re deciding between two options, list what has to be true for each one to work, then circle the parts you can confirm quickly.

For the handoff, I can take the first part and you can take the last part, so nobody has to juggle too many details at once.

On the materials, one page is enough if the headings are consistent; people can scan instead of reading paragraphs.

If you send me the draft list, I’ll reorder it so the practical items come first and the nice-to-have items go last.

Also, I’d avoid adding extra attendees unless they own a decision; it keeps the discussion focused.

Tell me what you want the final outcome to be and I’ll match the structure to that.
