Now this is most likely more crucial than you believe. You’re gon na wan na put the name of your service or maybe it’s your complete name. Remember, this is the URL that you are gon na be sharing with users. This is what you can connect from your website or your social networks accounts or you can simply copy and paste this and give it to individuals straight so that they can land on your Calendly page. All right, once you’ve been finished with your account settings, let’s go back to the house screen. I simply wan na reveal you where a few of those modifications take place. I’m gon na click on my link here just to show you where this appears. So this is the initial landing page where people are gon na see my profile image, my name which welcome message. I have actually got 2 events presently that people can choose from and when they click on among those events, they are also gon na see my branding here. This is where the logo enters play.

So let’s return to our menu within our account screen here. And this is actually our primary page here on the house screen where you can add and edit existing occasions. I have actually got 2 events that I’m using at the moment but let’s go and produce a new event from scratch. We gon na select that brand-new occasion type, which is gon na open a new screen. We have actually got 2 choices here, we can either create an individually conference or a group meeting. Now a group conference lets multiple invitees consult with you at a single time. This may be terrific for a teacher or if you are supplying a group webinar or something along those lines here. In most cases, the bulk of individuals are using Calendly for one-on-one meeting.
So let’s state produce for one-on-one. On this screen, the first thing that we need to do is give it an event name. Now remember, this is more than just your referral. When they land on your Calendly page, this is what people are gon na be seen. I’m simply gon na call this one, Satisfying with Scott, truly easy here. So I can identify, oop, Meeting Scott. Let’s keep that in there.

In our example, I’m gon na pick phone call in this case. And oftentimes, depending on the option that you pick, you might have some additional choices awaiting you. Do I wan na pick if I will call my invitee in this case, it’s gon na require the individual who’s scheduling that time to note their phone number. I need to know who I’m calling or I can pick this choice, my guest must call me. In this case, I can include my desired contact number here and the terrific thing with Calendly is that it’s not going to show this number till they have actually booked the visit. If someone is considering scheduling 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 have actually booked the time will this number be exposed. 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 state update, that’s gon na save that alternative here. If you have numerous events that you’re gon na be providing to your users, down below we can add a description which is something you don’t wan na overlook specifically. So I’m just gon na say, this is a meeting with Scott for a consulting session, something like that, simply something so they can distinguish what this occasion has to do with compared to maybe some of the other events that I have available.
