For calorie burning short intensive work outs are better. For example, deadlifts or playing squash for 30minutes is comparable to multiple hours of jogging.

I cannot find this "work out" advice in the article you linked [2].

The problem, I experience, is not that action items are missing. The point is that you must write the name of the responsible person next to each action item. Maybe even her email, so people can nag her. If possible, set deadlines.

However, the problem seems to be an inherently social one. I cannot imagine any etherpad plugin or something to help with this.

The best online meeting tool in my opinion is etherpad.

The meeting starts with a document containing the agenda. Now everybody chats and rewrites the agenda into a protocol of the decisions made. Meeting ends.

Pros: The discussion is usually clearer, because you talk about text. No need to talk about old protocols, which are written afterwards.

Cons: Does not solve the problem that usually nobody feels responsible afterwards.

I think you should market your manual process more aggressively. Generating from templates is easy and cheap, but that a professional graphic artist is doing it, makes quite a difference.

Would you be impressed by more subtle qualities? Let's say a design with special effects, but printed with a professional printer on thicker paper. Maybe subtle effects like watermarks or micro embossing.
