I have an out of town business executive that I want to meet 15 of my hand-picked students.  This exec will mingle for a bit, give a 30 min presentation, and then we’ll have a meal.   It could be at lunch or at dinner, depending on what time slot works best for the most people.

 

I can work with the business exec and we can establish a number of available 2 hour slots over a 3-4 week time period, but I don’t want to book the event until I’ve gotten feedback from all the 15 possible attendees.

In the meantime, if the two of us offer 6 alternatives to the 15 attendees, I want those blocked out on my calendar, and the exec’s calendar until the final meeting time and place has been finalized.

 

Can I use the personal copy of Calendly that I license to do this?

Hi ​@Paul1959! Thanks for reaching out.

In your case, I would recommend using our Meeting Polls feature! A Calendly meeting poll combines both voting and scheduling in a few simple steps:

  • You create your meeting details and offer times to meet
  • People vote on their preferred times
  • You choose the best time, and Calendly schedules the meeting for you.

With this, you’ll be able to offer time slots over the course of the few weeks and those invitees can vote on which times work best for them! This feature is available on all plans as well. For a detailed walkthrough, you can read more on our help center page: Getting started with meeting polls
