This is certainly gon na be your very first stop to make sure that you have your calendar connections set up properly. Simply choose include calendar account here and you can confirm with any calendar service including Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook. 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 encourage you to upload an image. If this is meetings or consultations that people are going to be scheduling with you, I suggest that you put your nice profile picture here along with your name and maybe a welcome message simply when they land on your start page. Next step, you likewise wan na make a fast stop at the branding page to add your business logo or some other image that you wish to include here. And lastly, we can click on the my link.
Now this is probably more important than you believe. In many cases, you’re gon na wan na put the name of your service or perhaps 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 media accounts or you can just copy and paste this and give it to individuals directly so that they can arrive on your Calendly page. All right, as soon as you have actually been finished with your account settings, let’s go back to the house screen. I simply wan na show you where some of those modifications happen. I’m gon na click on my link here just to reveal you where this appears. This is the initial landing page where people are gon na see my profile image, my name and that welcome message. I’ve got two occasions currently that people can pick from and when they click on among those occasions, they are likewise gon na see my branding here. This is where the logo comes into play. Now let’s move on to the events themselves and how can you set up one or more events so that it’s as easy for your potential leads or for your customers to come in here and book time with you. Let’s go back to our menu within our account screen here. And this is actually our primary page here on the home screen where you can add and modify existing occasions. I have actually got 2 events that I’m using at the moment however let’s go and create a new event from scratch. We gon na choose that new occasion type, which is gon na open a brand-new screen. We’ve got 2 options here, we can either produce an one-on-one meeting or a group conference. Now a group conference lets multiple guests consult with you at a single time. This may be excellent for an instructor or if you are providing a group webinar or something along those lines here. In most cases, the majority of people are utilizing Calendly for individually meeting.
Let’s state develop for one-on-one. On this screen, the first thing that we require to do is provide it an occasion name. Now keep in mind, this is more than simply your reference. This is what individuals are gon na be seen when they arrive on your Calendly page. So I’m just gon na call this one, Meeting Scott, actually basic here. So I can recognize, oop, Meeting Scott. Let’s keep that in there. Our 2nd step is to add an area and you can see we can tell our users upfront, is this an in person meeting, a phone call or is it gon na be a particular conferencing meeting such as using Google Meet, Zoom, GoToMeeting or possibly something custom, something that’s not even noted here. In our example, I’m gon na pick telephone call in this case. And oftentimes, depending on the alternative that you pick, you might have some extra alternatives waiting for you. For instance, do I wan na choose if I will call my invitee in this case, it’s gon na need the person who’s booking that time to note their telephone number. I need to understand who I’m calling or I can pick this alternative, my invitee needs to call me. In this case, I can include my desired phone number here and the fantastic thing with Calendly is that it’s not going to display this number till they have actually scheduled the appointment. So if someone is considering reserving 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’ve reserved the time will this number be revealed. In this case, I’m gon na say, I will call my guests ’cause I’m gon na ask them to provide their phone number. I’m gon na say update, that’s gon na conserve that alternative here. If you have several occasions that you’re gon na be providing to your users, down listed below we can include a description which is something you don’t wan na neglect particularly. I’m just gon na state, this is a meeting with Scott for a consulting session, something like that, just something so they can separate what this occasion is about compared to perhaps some of the other occasions that I have readily available. And after that simply below the description, we have our event link. Now we currently talked briefly about having your domain name or your service name or perhaps your full name to get them to your main Calendly page however this is something that you can share in addition, a separate URL. So in this case again, you wan na try make it as specific as possible. Perhaps I’m gon na say, meeting Scott, something like that, something that’s so simple for me to recognize however likewise if I just paste this link and copy, they understand what they’re getting.
Now as soon as we hit next, we’re gon na get to the nuts and bolts of our occasion. By opening this app, you’re gon na see a lot of
