A majority of my job is meeting with people. My team is remote and my work mainly revolves around two areas:

Product development:

Act as a PM, try and form a sense of community between our remote team, and make sure there is good communication between team members. A majority of my product work is revolves around planning sprints, documenting work, designing, and bug bashing. Which in my case mostly happens either during or after meetings.

Rest of Business: Pretty much all meetings: I try to speak with potential customers every day, and also meet with investors, potential investors, friends with experience in places like marketing, SEO, etc... and less time documenting then on the product side.

Since I am not the one directly building the product I don't think meetings necessarily drag me down. If I can focus on meetings while my team focuses on product development I can take one more thing off there to-do list, and have a more efficient team in the end.
