Scheduling
Let clients choose a time without back-and-forth messages
Set your availability once, share a booking link, and give clients a clear way to request or confirm an appointment.
“Does Tuesday work?” often leads to several more messages before a meeting is agreed. A booking link gives the other person a concrete list of available times while keeping control of your schedule with you.
Define what people are booking
Sign in and create a calendar. Give it a useful name, such as “Project introduction,” and describe what the conversation is for. Set the meeting length, your time zone, and the hours you actually want to offer.
Leave a buffer between appointments if you need time to take notes. Use the advance-notice setting to avoid last-minute bookings, and block dates when you are unavailable. Check these settings before sharing the link.
Decide how a booking becomes a meeting
Choose whether bookings confirm immediately or require your approval. Approval is useful when you need to review a request first. Make clear to visitors that a requested time is not yet a confirmed appointment.
Set the meeting location too. You can use an lcl.live call, provide an external meeting link, or add instructions for a phone or in-person appointment. The calendar should tell visitors what happens after they book.
Share one clear invitation
Copy the link from your calendars and send it with a short sentence: “Choose a time for our project introduction.” For a private calendar, also give the intended visitor the access key.
Visitors choose a time and enter their details without creating an account. Review the booking or request email afterward. If approval is required, wait for confirmation before treating the time as agreed.
