The Default Booker is a setting that applies to Queues. It can be found in individual Queue Settings under Online Booking URL. You can track the Booker of meetings by adding our Booked_By custom field to Salesforce.
There are three roles in Chili Piper:
- Booker: Internal person setting the meeting
- Assignee: Internal person receiving the meeting
- Prospect: External person receiving the meeting (prospect or customer)
This article will cover the role of the Default Booker in the following scenarios:
- Default Booker: Concierge
- Default Booker: Queue and Other Links
- Booker: Instant Booker
- Set the Booker in Booking Links
Default Booker: Concierge
When you are creating a Queue, the creator of the Queue will automatically be set as the Default Booker. Online Booking URL must be on in order to set the Default Booker:
Concierge uses your webform to automatically book meetings [with a Prospect] for an Assignee. Therefore, there is technically no real booker setting the meeting. This is where the Default Booker comes in. We use the Default Booker as a proxy to book the meeting onto the calendar of the Assignee, therefore it is important that the Default Booker has their calendar connected to Chili Piper. We can define what this means in the Queue settings:
By default, the Meeting is created in: [the] Booker's calendar (assignee is invited). Since the Booker is the Default Booker, in most cases we will want to switch this so that the meeting is created in the Assignee's calendar, as shown above.
If you choose to check Booker Invited, then we will automatically invite the Default Booker to all of the meetings. If enabled, you will want to consider whether we should consider the Booker's availability when booking the meeting and/or if they should auto-decline when thee meeting is booked:
Default Booker: Queue and Other Links
Queue Links
If you grab the Queue link from Online Booking URL to share in a marketing email, in a webinar, in a sales enablement cadence, etc the Default Booker will be considered the booker here as well.
Router Links
The Queue a meeting was booked into determines the Default Booker
Meeting Type Links
These links are specific to a template and accessible by Workspace Admins and Master Admins. The user referenced in the link is the booker when a meeting is booked through meeting type links
Personal Booking Links
The owner of the link is the booker when a meeting is booked through a user's personal link
Default Booker: Instant Booker
You can use Instant Booker via Chili Piper's Chrome Extension to book meetings for yourself and others. There are two common use cases for Instant Booker:
- An SDR or BDR booking on behalf of an AE
- Booking meetings for yourself
When using Instant Booker, Chili Piper registers the logged in user of Instant Booker as the Booked By user
Set the Booker in Booking Links
You can pass a parameter in any Chili Piper link to specify a specific booker by using Smart Booking Links. You might choose to do this if a Router or Queue link are being used in a Sales Enablement cadence or a specific email campaign.
Example:
If we have this Round Robin URL: https://calendar.chilipiper.com/book/test and want to override the Default Booker to be a user, specifically Jeff Bezos, we can set this using a by parameter in the link:
https://calendar.chilipiper.com/book/test?by=jeff-bezos
In enablement tools, you would use this same format with the dynamic merge fields for first name and last name.
