Best used by teams who are needing to book many meetings with external customers or internal stakeholders. This includes but is not limited to customer success, customer support, recruiting, sales, UX research and in the education sector. Individual contributors can connect their calendars and then managers can setup and manage everything from one centralized account for the organization.
Connecting your entire team's calendars to a booking page will free them up from adminsitrative work so they can focus on revenue generating taks or high value tasks. The booker can cancel and reschedule on their own without needing to contact anyone. You also can generate a report of all bookings for further analysis.
If you can login to an online account you are good to go. When you first setup your YouCanBook.me account you will need to integrate a Microsoft or Google calendar. From there you can use the UI to configure different booking pages for your needs. There is nearly unlimited options. But right at the start the template will be functional and ready to take bookings. There is a knowledge base, forum community and an Academy to help you to understand everything.
