Calendar Meeting Location - drop down options when booking
in progress
The ability for a customer to choose from a drop down list of possible meeting types/location options for a meeting would be great. I sometimes meet my customers at a cafe that's close to me or at their place of work. Then sometimes its a zoom call or just a phone call meeting. So the ability for them to choose what type of meeting and which location as well as day & time would round it off. EG- Drop down = Zoom, phone call, Customers address, Account location address (default meeting) Cafe location 1, Restaurant location 2, Custom (as last option).
Hope that makes sense.

Very much needed! booking in multiple clients into one calendar where some may come to our office, some might zoom call, phone call etc, I am currently using the method shown by Noah below, but this does not change the location in the calendar booking the customer receives - the ability to do this is crucial!

Scheduling a driving lesson for by location and managing an efficient route for a driving instructor and combining more than one student in the same area. This will prevent the driving instructor from returning to the same area several times, which will streamline daily management and save costs for the customer ( driving instructors).

Hey, everyone, I was looking for the same solution and I might found a way that is not perfect but a start.
- Create a new form for your Calendar.
- Include a radio select with for example "Zoom", "Phone", "in Person"
- On your calendar, choose the custom form.
Now customers can choose their location. In the automations I use a If/Else to send them custom reminders based on the location.
Hope this helped.

Noah Spanier thank you for the update. With my situation, I have 2 local business locations with multiple staff, and so the customer needs to select a location before choosing their date/ time so that the availability is accurate. Do you think this will work that way?

Heck, just the option to select between Phone, Google Meet or Zoom would be nice

Bridgette Hannigan Check my comment above, I might found a way for this to work until its build in.

Same here. Does anyone have a viable solution until then?

Definitely! This is a must have for services at different locations (multiple brick and mortar sites, online (zoom), and home/hospital visits.)

Abhishek Chauhan I'm so happy, my calendars are getting so messy with in house and online meeting variations.

Yes, please provide the option for multiple locations (example: 5 barber shop locations in 1 city). We need this for service calendars for sure. Until then, I must stay with my current scheduling software.

Yes please! Calendly does this and it's a big pain point for all of our accountant clients that switch over from Calendly because offer a Zoom option or In office option so their Group Calendar page gets a little wieldy. If meeting location could be an selectable option for the contact (like Calendly does) they could cut down their number of calendars in half.
