My Favorite Way to Schedule Calls & Meetings 🕘
How many emails does it take to schedule a phone call or meeting with a colleague or client?
Too many, right?
Enter Calendly, a software tool that syncs to your electronic calendar and allows you to send a link to someone who wants to book time with you.
I love Calendly because:
-
I can block only the days and times that work for me (Like T-Th between 9 and 2, since I meet my daughters off the school bus)
-
No double-booking meetings and appointments - it only shows times you're available
-
It can be used to scheduled paid time with you, like for consulting or appointment-based freelancers
-
It's free! (Enhanced options are available with a paid membership)
Recommending Calendly to a friend totally changed her business, leading to a direct influx of more paid client appointments without the scheduling stress!
Recently I added a Calendly link in my email signature, and it makes scheduling times to chat so quick and easy.
