How to Offer Different Meeting Types on Specific Days

Need to offer online consultations on certain days and in-person meetings on others? With meetergo, you can create a flexible weekly schedule where different meeting types are available on different days.

Use Case

You want to plan each week individually:

• Wednesday 29th: Online consultations from 3-6 PM
• Saturday 1st: In-person consultations in the afternoon
• Following week: Maybe both, or just one option

Solution: Separate Meeting Types with Availability Exceptions

The key is to create separate meeting types for each service and use availability exceptions to control when each is bookable.

Step 1: Create Separate Meeting Types

1. Go to Meeting Types
2. Create one meeting type for Online Consultations (with a video channel like Zoom or meetergo Connect)
3. Create another meeting type for In-Person Consultations (with a local/in-person channel)

This way, clients book the specific service they need, and you have full control over when each is available.

Step 2: Set Different Availability per Meeting Type

Each meeting type can have its own availability schedule:

1. Edit your meeting type
2. Under Availability, you can either:
   • Use the default availability (shared across meeting types)
   • Create a custom availability specific to this meeting type

For maximum flexibility with weekly planning, use availability exceptions.

Step 3: Use Availability Exceptions for Weekly Planning

Availability exceptions let you open or block specific time slots on specific dates:

1. Go to Availability
2. Click on a specific date in the calendar
3. Toggle to "✅ Available" to open a time slot
4. Set the time range (e.g., 3:00 PM - 6:00 PM)
5. Click Save

Repeat for each day you want to offer appointments.

Tip: You can also block days where you don't want bookings by using the "🚫 Blocker" toggle.

Step 4: Assign Availability to Meeting Types

To ensure each meeting type respects its own schedule:

1. Edit the meeting type
2. Under Availability, select the appropriate availability schedule
3. Save changes

Now your online consultations and in-person meetings will only be bookable during their designated times.
