Here's how we'll get everything working like a dream for you:
-
Let's Define Your Meeting Styles with "Booking Types":
What kinds of appointments do you want your sales team to have? Think product demos, discovery calls, or strategy sessions. We'll create these as "Booking Types." This way, it's super clear what kind of meeting a customer can sign up for and what your sales folks can add to their calendars. It's all about clarity and offering the right options.

Next Up: Setting Your "Availability Hours":
When are your sales champions typically ready to connect? We'll set these as their "Availability Hours." This tells the system when your team is generally in the office and open for those important customer interactions. It ensures customers can only pick times when your team is actually available – smart, right?
-
Finally, Let's Block Out "Unavailability":
Everyone needs a break or has other commitments. This step is for marking those times when your sales team won't be available for new bookings. This could be for things like regular company meetings, well-deserved lunch breaks, vacation time, or any other planned off-calendar moments. This keeps everyone's schedule accurate and prevents any accidental bookings during downtime.
A little bit of thoughtful setup here, and you'll have a powerful, personalized booking system ready to boost productivity and make scheduling a joy! In the next article, we'll focus on creating Step 1 - Booking Types.
