Your Calendar = Your Reputation

An accurate calendar prevents double-bookings, shows hosts you're professional, and helps you capture every opportunity.

Important: Double-bookings hurt your reputation and can result in cancellation penalties. Always keep your calendar updated!

1. Blocking Unavailable Dates

Proactively block dates when you can't work to prevent inquiries for those times.

When to Block Dates

  • Personal commitments and vacations
  • Events booked through other channels
  • Equipment maintenance or prep days
  • Days you need rest between large events

2. Syncing External Calendars

Connect your Google, Apple, or Outlook calendar to automatically sync your availability.

How Calendar Sync Works

  • Events from your external calendar automatically block those dates
  • Eventini bookings can be added to your external calendar
  • Changes sync in both directions automatically

Pro tip: Create a dedicated calendar for your business events to keep personal and work separate.

3. Calendar Best Practices

Do

  • Update immediately when plans change
  • Block travel time for distant events
  • Review your calendar weekly
  • Plan ahead for busy seasons

Don't

  • Accept bookings without checking calendar
  • Leave dates open you can't actually work
  • Forget to block setup/teardown time
  • Wait to update after booking elsewhere
