5. Calendly
Scheduling meetings can be such a pain. You know how it goes: you and your clients typically send several emails back and forth in one chain trying to decide on a date and time that works for everyone. It’s tedious. But Calendly makes it easier. Just upload your weekly availability into the app, and send out an invite link. Once someone receives a link, all they have to do is look through your availability and schedule themselves directly to your calendar. The app will create a workflow for you and alert you when you have upcoming meetings. Simple!
