3. You will be prompted to the Instant Booker to select the guests - here, you can change the main guest and deselect other guests you do not want to invite to the meeting.
If the guests do not exist in your CRM (in the example above, it is represented by the CRM icon with red "X"), you can easily add them following the steps described in Create Lead or Contact from Instant Booker.
In IB 2.0, the selected guests are displayed at the bottom-right of the screen:
In IB 3.0, the selected guests are displayed at the top-right of the screen:
- In the top search bar, it is possible to invite and add new guests to the meeting;
- In the Main Guest options, you choose between "Don't send an Invite" or "Remove";
- In Guest options, you choose between "Don't send an Invite", "Make optional" or "Remove".
For more details on how to edit the options for the guests, please refer to our Choose which guests to make optional or not invite in the Instant Booker article.
That's it. Now you can book the meeting!
