Calendar scheduling for the holidays

It's the busiest time of the year, so you might want to upgrade your calendar

The moment October rolls around, the festivities begin. There's Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year's. It's three months of family, friends, chaos, and cheer. Events are happening everywhere; some are at home while others are at school or work. It's a time when entire communities, personal and professional, get together to acknowledge what they value and care about. A lot is going on, which turns into endless opportunities for things to go sideways. 

For these hectic seasons, a calendar is one of the best tools for managing the joy and unpredictability of this time of year. However, what happens if you leave your physical calendar at home or log into the wrong digital calendar? These seemingly minor oversights can snowball into more significant scheduling problems. However, we can avoid all of this by using tools like Cal.com. Cal.com is an online scheduling platform that's minimalistic, open source, and, most importantly, easy to use. Cal.com makes scheduling easy because it supports multi-calendar integrations, meaning Cal.com will double-check your availability to ensure that appointments are only booked when you are actually free.


Parties are also a type of meeting

It's important to remember that meetings exist outside of the office. A meeting is actually an opportunity to connect with another individual or gather a group. Meetings also don't always have to be educational or formal. Having a cup of coffee or tea with a friend is a meeting. Going to a movie with your cousin is a meeting. Spending the day at a theme park with your parents, nieces, and nephews is also a meeting. When you use meeting scheduling products, you're not just putting aside time to work; you're committing to spending time with people you care about. Using Cal.com lets you set meeting locations that suit your communication habits and lifestyle. Your meeting can be in person, over the phone, or via video chat. Cal.com also supports multiple time zones, making it easier to arrange opportunities to connect with people worldwide. One of the best things about using Cal.com is that you don't have to worry about any back-and-forth. If you want to meet with someone or they want to meet with you, you just need to send a link; it's that simple.


What about your friends and family? 

The only thing better than finding a new easy to use time-saving product is sharing it with your friends and family. Cal.com is free for individuals; your friends and families can all get Cal.com accounts as well. Unlike many online calendar scheduling platforms, we don't limit how many events a user can have. Each individual can have multiple bookable events designed for different purposes. One event can just be for booking time with friends and family, and another can be dedicated to connecting with people at work. You can also do things like create hidden events, which are great for organizing things like surprise parties. Setting up a Cal.com account is one of the easiest things you can do for yourself and the people you care about to reduce the chaos of the holidays and increase cheer.
