A Step-by-Step Guide to set it up

In your HubSpot account, go to Sales > Meetings. Keep in mind:

  • If you have “Create scheduling pages for others” permissions, you can create, edit, and delete scheduling pages for other users. Super admins or users with “Add and edit users” permissions can grant these permissions to a user.
  • Ensure your user has Sales Access permissions if Meetings doesn’t appear in the navigation menu under Sales.

Click “Create scheduling page” in the upper right corner. In the dialogue box, choose a meeting option:

  • One-on-One: Contacts can schedule time with just you or the user you’re creating the scheduling pages for.
  • Group (available for Sales Hub or Service Hub Starter, Professional, or Enterprise): This team scheduling page shows time slots when all selected team members are available. Use this option to help contacts book a meeting with multiple team members simultaneously.
  • Round robin (available for Sales Hub or Service Hub Starter, Professional, or Enterprise): This team scheduling page displays individual availability for all selected team members. Use this option to help contacts book a meeting with a team member whose schedule aligns best with theirs.

Click “Next” to proceed.

Now, you have to fill out information such as “internal name”, “title” and “location” for the meeting.

Once that’s done you have to select which team members you want to include in the meeting – if you want to include some.

Now, you have to fill out the scheduling experience, which timeslot you are available for etc.

Lastly, you can create an email reminder to the participants and then you are done.

An Example Where It’s Relevant for a Company

Consider a B2B company specializing in providing software solutions to clients in the healthcare industry. The sales team frequently engages in product demonstrations and consultations with potential customers. By using the meeting planner, the sales representatives can easily share their availability with prospects, enabling them to book appointments at their convenience. This streamlined scheduling process allows the sales team to focus on preparing for meetings, demonstrating their expertise, and nurturing leads into paying customers.
