Welcome to Appointlet, your tool for seamless and efficient online scheduling! With our platform, you'll be able to effortlessly coordinate meetings, manage team availability, and integrate essential tools to optimize your scheduling process.
To ensure a smooth start, we recommend focusing on the following key areas:
Understanding Scheduling Pages and Meeting Types
At the heart of Appointlet are your Scheduling Pages and Meeting Types. Scheduling Pages are where your attendees will go to book meetings with you. Scheduling Pages may contain multiple Meeting Types which your attendees can choose from before picking a time slot.
Keep in mind free accounts are limited to a single Scheduling Page, while premium accounts are permitted to create as many as desired.
Meeting Types, on the other hand, define the specific kinds of meetings you are offering. To dive deeper into these settings, simply locate a meeting type on your Pages tab and click on it to open the editor. This will open a new window giving you access to the availability schedule and other foundational settings. We’ll take a look at the Availability settings below.
Setting Up Availability
Tailor Appointlet to your schedule by customizing when you're available for meetings. This allows attendees to book times that are convenient for both parties.
Appointlet’s availability tool allows you to choose the dates and times you’d like to be available, how often your time slots are listed on your live scheduling page, and gives you full control over the scheduling rules for each individual meeting.
