And I have actually utilized Calendly for a while now. It is a really easy and quick tool to enable people who are interested in my company and in my work to book time with me. I wan na reveal you how to get things started. So we’re gon na get things kicked off by going into our menu, into our account as soon as you’ve signed up with Calendly. And one of the first places that you’re gon na wan na go is up here to your account.

This is definitely gon na be your very first stop to make sure that you have your calendar connections set up properly. Next up, we wan na stay with our account settings this time we’re gon na go to account account settings and I simply wan na motivate you to upload an image.
You’re gon na wan na put the name of your business or maybe it’s your complete name. I’ve got two events currently that people can choose from and when they click on one of those occasions, they are likewise gon na see my branding here. We gon na pick that new event type, which is gon na open up a brand-new screen.
So let’s say develop for individually. On this screen, the first thing that we require to do is give it an event name. Now remember, this is more than just your reference. This is what people are gon na be seen when they arrive on your Calendly page. So I’m simply gon na call this one, Consulting with Scott, truly simple here. So I can recognize, oop, Meeting Scott. Let’s keep that therein. Our second action is to add an area and you can see we can tell our users upfront, is this an in person conference, a call or is it gon na be a particular conferencing conference such as using Google Meet, Zoom, GoToMeeting or maybe something custom, something that’s not even listed here. In our example, I’m gon na select call in this case. And oftentimes, depending upon the alternative that you choose, you might have some additional options waiting for you. Do I wan na pick if I will call my guest in this case, it’s gon na require the person who’s scheduling that time to list their phone number. I require to know who I’m calling or I can select this choice, my guest should call me. In this case, I can include my wanted contact number here and the fantastic thing with Calendly is that it’s not going to show this number until they have actually scheduled the visit. So if somebody is thinking about scheduling time with me, it’s not as if they’re gon na see my phone number or my dial in number immediately, it’s just after they have actually scheduled the time will this number be exposed. In this case, I’m gon na state, I will call my invitees ’cause I’m gon na ask them to provide their phone number. I’m gon na say update, that’s gon na conserve that choice here. If you have numerous occasions that you’re gon na be using to your users, down listed below we can add a description which is something you don’t wan na ignore specifically. So I’m just gon na state, this is a conference with Scott for a consulting session, something like that, simply something so they can differentiate what this occasion is about compared to perhaps a few of the other occasions that I have readily available. And then simply listed below the description, we have our occasion link.

Possibly I’m gon na say, meeting Scott, something like that, something that’s so easy for me to identify however also if I just paste this link and copy, they understand what they’re getting.
