Using Doodle is fairly straightforward. From signing up to creating an event and sharing the details, Doodle provides an easy-to-use scheduling tool. You can also set automated reminders to be sent to invitees.
Find out the steps involved in scheduling an event below.
1. Sign Up on Doodle
To access the features of Doodle that make scheduling appointments easy, you’ll first need to sign up on Doodle’s home page. You can do that with your email address, Google, Apple, Microsoft or Facebook account. And if you want your team members to set up meetings on Doodle, go to your Account Settings on the dashboard. Then, click on Team members at the bottom left, inviting them to Doodle.
2. Create a Meeting
For one-on-one meetings, click on Create, and then 1:1 Meeting. Add the meeting title, details and location, and select the meeting duration. Next, choose your preferred time on the table provided. Then, send an invitation to one or more persons. Once one person selects a time slot, it is updated in your calendar and it becomes unavailable for others.
For group meetings, click Create and Group meeting. Enter the meeting title and location. You can also add notes to the event. Then, add your date and time options. Next, click Settings to add more details, such as deadlines, reminders and contact requests. After creating the poll, send out invitations with links invitees can open to choose their most convenient time.
3. Connect Your Calendar
Bookable Calendar allows teammates, clients and prospects to book into your calendar at your available times. On the left side of the dashboard, click on Bookable Calendar. Select Create Calendar, enter your calendar’s title, and set the meeting rules, including work hours, meeting duration, minimum notice and buffers. You can then share the link or add it to your email signature or website.
Doodle allows you to create up to 100 bookable calendars, and anyone who clicks on a shared link will see your booked times and choose from the open time slots.
