This tutorial has been designed to be straightforward and easy to implement. This means that you don't need any specialized knowledge or technical background in order to achieve success.
Why add Cal.com To LinkedIn?
Time is an irreplaceable resource. We sometimes talk about time as if it were a commodity, but it’s not, since we can’t purchase it. That's why it's important to use tools like Cal.com to help you take ownership of your time. Adding Cal.com to your LinkedIn profile helps to eliminate the needless back and forth that's so often part of appointment booking. Once you've completed this tutorial, your booking link will be available for anyone who wants to reach out to you in order to benefit from your expertise. This is a simple solution to an age-old problem.
What if i don't have an account?
I'm glad you asked that. Cal.com is free for individuals to use. You can create an account in 5 minutes or less. Once you've done that, you'll have access to our entire suite of consumer features.

Everyday benefits
Now that you've completed the tutorial, you're ready to take advantage of a whole suite of benefits. This includes things like being able to incorporate analytics as part of your booking strategy in order to gain data-based insights. You can also implement paid meetings if you’re a consultant, or implement no-show fees if you want to reduce unannounced no-shows.
What if I get too many appointments?
We know that sometimes too much of a good thing is just too much. That's why Cal.com provides our users with controls that can be used to reduce the likelihood of such a scenario. You can use booking limits to state how often a specific appointment type can be booked. For example, if you're offering pro bono consultations, you can set a limit that means you only offer a specific number of them either per week, per month, or per year. You can also turn on the required confirmation setting. This means that when people request a meeting, it won’t actually be booked and added to your calendar until you confirm your acceptance of that meeting.
Hopefully, this article has helped you not only add your Cal.com booking link to your LinkedIn profile, but also understand the benefits of doing so.
