2 common email meeting scheduling mistakes and how to fix them

Short answer

The most common email meeting scheduling mistakes are: exposing full calendar details rather than free/busy; ignoring time zones in proposed slots.

Scheduling threads average four to six messages. Automating them frees time and speeds up sales and hiring cycles.

Why it hurts: this undermines email meeting scheduling at the point where mailbox providers make their decision, and it is rarely surfaced by your own tooling until placement drops.

Fix: Connect your calendar so the assistant can read free/busy.

Mistake 2: Ignoring time zones in proposed slots#

Why it hurts: this undermines email meeting scheduling at the point where mailbox providers make their decision, and it is rarely surfaced by your own tooling until placement drops.
