Chances are that if you're a service provider, your customers aren't willing to show up in person as they normally would, given the Coronavirus pandemic.
Regardless of what service you provide, if you can perform your service to people over the internet, then you should do your best to set up business appointments online.
In this article, we're going to mention two tools that you can use together to have appointments online.
1. Book Business Appointments Online With Calendly
Calendly is a great online booking tool that allows you to share your schedule with customers so that they can choose a time that works for them.
The tool also allows you to:

2. Communicate with your customers via Google Hangouts
Booking appointments is the first half of the process.
