Here’s what I’ve been hearing from our coaches lately . . .
Some of you LOVE having your Paperbell calendars synced up with everything, and others would rather just keep things simple and just use Paperbell as their own calendar.
Great news: now you can do EITHER!
Here’s what’s new with calendar integrations:
We’ve always had rock-solid two-way syncing with Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, and Apple iCal. But now we’re adding a fourth option that might just blow your mind…
Option 4: No external calendar at all! 🤯
Yep, you read that right. You can now use Paperbell as your complete scheduling solution without connecting any outside calendar. Your Paperbell calendar becomes your ONE source of truth for all your coaching appointments.
So what’s right for YOU?
If you don’t currently use another calendar (like iCal or Google Calendar), no reason to start! Your coaching appointments live happily in Paperbell, and that’s it.
If you would be lost without your google cal (I’m in this camp!): Connect your main calendar so that Paperbell always checks your availability before letting clients book. This prevents those awkward “oops, I’m actually at my kid’s soccer game” moments!
QIKYATA
(Questions I Know You’re About To Ask!)
What if I change my mind later? No worries! You can connect or disconnect your calendar anytime. We’re flexible like that 😊
Will my clients see any difference? Nope! They’ll still get beautiful calendar invites and reminders regardless of which option you choose.
Do I lose anything by not connecting a calendar? The main thing you lose is automatic conflict-checking. But if you don’t have appointments on another calendar, you might not need that!
The bottom line? Whether you’re a calendar-sync enthusiast or a “less is more” type of coach, we’ve got you covered!Want all the nitty-gritty details? Check out our complete calendar integration guide for step-by-step instructions and troubleshooting tips.
