#3 Zoom pro-tip (for companies)
Install as a top-level "G Suite App" (note you must be an admin) https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/115004396563-Configuring-Zoom-with-G-Suite-Google-Apps
This will allow Zoom to show up natively as a conferencing option in Google Calendar.
Bonus: this also works on mobile!

Use http://Grain.co -- insanely easy to share clips from Zoom recordings.
Example during my on-boarding call with @michaelglena
Ping them for early access. https://beta.grain.co/clip/l25zdpLmT72eTRtlH9Ay6z9AWAs2Ssjr

Start your meetings with a bit of music
At the bottom click Share Screen » Advanced » Computer Sound Only
This is how I begin our All Hands meeting at WorkOS each week. Start 5 minutes early so people can boogie while joining and waiting for everyone else

Take a screenshot at the end of your weekly meetings!
We've been doing this for a year. It's like a team photo booth. Amazing to see the team grow week-by-week!

#11 Zoom pro-tip:
Disable "Ask me to confirm when I leave a meeting"
No more pained awkward smiling as your cursor hunts for that "End for everyone" button

#13 Zoom pro-tip:
Don’t use bluetooth headphones!
AirPods and others have degraded sound quality and introduce a bunch of latency.
Using a wired headset results in crystal clear audio. Your old wired Apple earbuds are a great option
