Why share availability as text instead of a booking link?
Why share availability as text instead of a booking link?
A booking link says "schedule yourself into my calendar." A plain-text list says "here are some times that work — what's good for you?" It's a small difference that changes the tone of the entire interaction. For coffee chats, interviews, client calls, and sales conversations, text feels personal.
