If you’ve been looking for an easy way to offer bookable appointments, Google has you covered on both free and paid accounts now. Here’s how to use the new feature.
I’ve held numerous positions where I’ve needed to offer bookable appointments and trying to find a cost-effective bookable appointment solution was a never-ending challenge.
Fortunately, Google has added such a feature to its Calendar service and I’m here to tell you it’s pretty sweet. Even better, the new bookable appointments feature is available to both the paid and free accounts.
Google’s new bookable appointments feature is easy enough that anyone who knows their way around Calendar will have no problem adding it to their calendar. Once you’ve added a block of bookable appointments, you can then share it, so people can use it as a self-serve appointment calendar. It’s simple enough on both ends that no one should have trouble using the feature.
However, I will offer one word of warning. If you use multiple calendars and want your bookable appointments to live only within a non-default calendar, you’re out of luck. Even if you assign a block of bookable appointments to a non-default calendar, it will still show up in your default calendar as well. However, if you don’t use multiple calendars, you won’t notice a thing.
Let me show you how to add a block of bookable appointments to your Google Calendar.
