If you're like me, then setting appointments is kind of a drag, isn't it?
I mean, yes, it's a necessary evil. An essential, fundamental part of being in business. No two ways around it.
But still, it's also kind of a pain isn't it?
If you're with me, then I'm about to share something with you that'll make you go all squishy inside.
Let's talk about the "back and forth" game
You know the one, right? It's the “back and forth” game we invariably end up playing when trying to setup meetings. It typically looks kind of like this:
Email: “When would you like to meet?”
Reply: “Eh…how about Thursday or Friday?”
Reply: “OK, which is better for you? I could do either. Thurs after 2pm or Friday before 10am or after 3pm. Also, anytime Mon or Wed of next week.”
Reply: “Hmmmm… Thurs at 3pm then? Or I could also do next week if that’s easier…
