Network
Depending on the current event opportunity, you may notice meeting availabilities on people profile pages, whether they are a contact or not.
Sending requests for virtual meetings are easy and may very well lead to them accepting. In that event, you will immediately receive a notification in the platform and an email reminder 10 min beforehand. All your scheduled meetings can be viewed and exported for your calendar in “My Event” > “My meetings”. All the above references link to the page of your meeting and will show a “Join Meeting” button in the hour leading up to it.
Companies are happy to consider your meeting invitations, so don’t be shy! Though you can find and send meeting requests to individual reps as described above, you should also take advantage of doing so directly in virtual booths. Just find a booth of interest and choose from any available times (as defined by event host).
See more information on booking meetings and how to manage your own availability.
TIP: Make sure to regularly log-in to see if you have any notifications about meeting requests
TIP: A pending meeting will block a meeting slot. If your meeting is not confirmed after several days, don’t hesitate to cancel it to free up the meeting slot!
