An expert's availability and their appointments are joined at the hip. Most calls ran under 30 minutes, yet every booking took a 60-minute block.
Experts have to give the whole call their attention, so they need to see the value of their time and stay on top of it. When booking limits ran out, they scheduled in personal calendars, where no one could see it.
What was in the way
60-minute slots by default.
Availability copied across systems.
Experts booking around the system.
Clear slots, booked automatically.Experts set clear availability. We moved off 60-minute manual blocks and helped them adopt automated slot booking.
Room to change.An appointment is easy to extend, move, or swap when it needs to be.
One calendar is the truth.Every system reads from the expert's one calendar, so a slot offered is a slot that can be kept.
