The very first thing that you’re gon na wan na do is make sure that you add one or more calendar accounts.
to examine other reservations that you may have going on. And what I imply by this, is things beyond simply Calendly appointments however things that are happening maybe in your personal life or other conferences that come up as a part of your day. Down listed below here, you can likewise check for conflicts. You can use several calendars to check for disputes more than just the one that you have selected up here and you can also specify which calendar to include those consultations to. This is absolutely gon na be your really first stop to make sure that you have your calendar connections set up correctly.

Next up, we wan na stick with our account settings this time we’re gon na go to account account settings and I simply wan na encourage you to upload an image. So if this is conferences or appointments that people are going to be scheduling with you, I recommend that you put your nice profile photo here in addition to your name and perhaps a welcome message simply when they land on your beginning page. Next action, you likewise wan na make a quick stop at the branding page to add your business logo or some other image that you would like to add here. And last but not least, we can click on the my link.
You’re gon na wan na put the name of your service or maybe it’s your full name. I have actually got two events currently that individuals can choose from and when they click on one of those occasions, they are likewise gon na see my branding here. We gon na choose that new event type, which is gon na open up a brand-new screen.
Let’s state develop for individually. On this screen, the first thing that we require to do is offer it an occasion name. Now keep in mind, this is more than just your recommendation. This is what people are gon na be seen when they arrive at your Calendly page. I’m simply gon na call this one, Fulfilling with Scott, actually simple here. So I can identify, oop, Meeting with Scott. Let’s keep that in there. Our 2nd action is to include an area and you can see we can inform our users upfront, is this an in person conference, a telephone call or is it gon na be a particular conferencing meeting such as using Google Meet, Zoom, GoToMeeting or possibly something customized, something that’s not even listed here. In our example, I’m gon na choose call in this case. And in most cases, depending upon the alternative that you choose, you might have some extra choices waiting on you. Do I wan na select if I will call my guest in this case, it’s gon na require the individual who’s reserving that time to note their phone number. I need to understand who I’m calling or I can choose this option, my invitee should call me. In this case, I can include my wanted contact number here and the great thing with Calendly is that it’s not going to show this number till they have actually scheduled the visit. So if someone is thinking about reserving time with me, it’s not as if they’re gon na see my phone number or my dial in number right away, it’s only after they’ve booked the time will this number be exposed. But in this case, I’m gon na state, I will call my guests ’cause I’m gon na ask them to provide their phone number. I’m gon na say upgrade, that’s gon na save that option here. If you have several occasions that you’re gon na be offering to your users, down listed below we can include a description which is something you don’t wan na ignore specifically. So I’m simply gon na say, this is a meeting with Scott for a consulting session, something like that, just something so they can distinguish what this occasion is about compared to possibly some of the other events that I have readily available. And after that just below the description, we have our event link.

And last but not least, we can pick a different color. This is extremely useful if you have several occasions, I’m gon na pick red in this case so it stands apart from the other occasions that I’ve currently developed.
