4 Outcomes and 4 Fixes for Bad Scheduling

Facts: To be on your game as a marketer, you gotta be productive.

Productivity is inevitably tied to our calendars and schedules as they set the tone for the day. If you’re having problems maximizing your productivity, we’re here to help.

Here are 4 common calendaring problems and how to fix them.

Scheduling Wars: We’ve all been there. You set a time for a meeting and before you know it, it’s been rescheduled. And then it drops off entirely. Don’t let this happen anymore.

Fix: Send your guest a Scheduling Link with embedded meeting options and eliminate email back and forth entirely.

The Double Book: 2 calls at 1pm? Ya, not gonna happen.

Fix: Manage all your calendars – personal and professional – in one calendar view so that can always be on top of all of your commitments.

You’re late: Everything is on schedule, but you underestimated your travel time. Uh oh.

Fix: An integrated map view, built into your calendar, lets you see where you need to be and automatically calculates and schedules event travel time. Sign us up for that!
