I’m using the Keap App as a CRM and Calendar booking tool. It is AWESOME but only allows a four hour blocking window for clients to book. So sometimes I don’t get too much of a headstart on client appointments - for example it might be noon and they can still book for four or five pm the same day. I would rather have a 24 hour window, given the nature of my business and how I need to prepare.

I have contacted Keap and they are pretty useless in the customer service department for this issue - saying I need to manually block off my Google Calendar every night. Ummmm, no, this is the whole point of automation! Another agent said I could use Zapier, which I already pay for, for other things, but I don’t know how to create a zap in my Google Calendar to extend a block-off every night?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi @rrchapman42 

Perhaps look into using a scheduling app such as Calendly or Acuity that integrates with GCal and has more robust calendar controls.

Acuity: https://zapier.com/apps/acuity-scheduling/integrations#triggers-and-actions

I’m already using KEAP which is phenomenal for all aspects of my business. This is the only quirk. They sent me to you guys to see if I could “Zap” a block into my Google Calendar every night for the next day. Any suggestions? I don’t know how to do that.
