Demo & Discovery Scheduling

Q: Can the automation handle multiple team members attending the same demo?

Yes. The automation checks availability across all attendees and only shows time slots when everyone is free.

Q: What if a prospect needs to reschedule after booking?

Prospects can reschedule through the booking link, and the automation updates all calendar events and sends new confirmation details to attendees. Manual rescheduling is eliminated.

Q: Does the automation work with our existing email and calendar tools?

Yes. The automation integrates with Gmail, Google Calendar, Outlook, and other mainstream email and calendar platforms.

Q: How does the automation handle time zones?

The automation detects prospect and attendee time zones and displays available slots in the prospect's local time. All calendar invites and confirmations reflect the correct time zone automatically.

Cut the email ping-pong out of demo booking so reps spend their time selling, not scheduling.

About This Automation

Demo and discovery scheduling consumes significant time as sales reps manually coordinate calendars, wait for prospect responses, and log meetings across multiple tools. Manual back-and-forth delays bookings by days and frustrates prospects seeking instant availability.

Automation monitors incoming requests, displays available time slots to prospects via a booking link, and instantly creates calendar events and CRM records once a slot is selected. Reps recover scheduling time and close deals faster.

Key features:

Monitor incoming demo requests from email and web forms automatically

Display real-time team availability across all attendees without manual checking

Let prospects book their preferred time slot instantly with a booking link

Create calendar events and send confirmation details to all attendees automatically

Log all scheduled meetings to your CRM and team chat in real time

Reduce average booking time from days to hours or same-day confirmation

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Demo Request Receivedtrigger

A prospect submits a demo request via email, form, or inbound message. The automation detects the request and extracts the prospect name, company, and any notes about their needs.

2. Check Team Availability

The automation queries for all assigned sales reps and identifies available time slots across the next 5 to 10 business days, filtering for slots when at least one rep is free.

3. Send Booking Link

The automation sends the prospect an email booking link pre-populated with available time slots. The prospect selects their preferred time instantly without further back-and-forth.

4. Create Calendar Event

Once the prospect books a slot, the automation creates a event for all assigned attendees and adds the meeting details.

5. Send Confirmation

The automation sends the prospect a confirmation email with the meeting time, Zoom link, and any prep materials or agenda.

6. Log

The automation creates a meeting record, linking it to the prospect's contact and deal, and tags it with the demo type and assigned rep.

7. Notify Team

The automation sends a notification to the assigned rep and any other attendees with the meeting details and a link.
