We all live by our calendars, whether it’s a meeting with a client, lunch with a colleague, or your child’s soccer match. Regardless of whether the appointment is business or personal, you’re obliged to attend, and there can be undesired consequences if you don’t make it.

What Would We Do Without Technology?

That’s why people and companies have turned to online appointment booking apps to simplify and automate scheduling and ensure appointments don’t fall through the gaps.

Why Integration is Key

These apps can be incredibly helpful when multiple people are involved in a meeting or appointment. The real issue arises when these calendar items aren’t synchronized to your CRM system and don’t make it to the screens you need them on.

Selling team members are often compensated and bonused on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) like the number, type, and duration of meetings.

Not being able to surface this type of information in CRM accurately can lead to disgruntled employees and inaccurate compensation. They waste time with double data entry. The company can’t accurately track patterns that lead to higher win rates and coaching opportunities.

On top of that, there is no accurate tracking for actual meeting attendance or documented summaries of discussion points.
