Black Out Dates

How to Manage Blackout Dates and Flexible Scheduling in CoachIQ

Managing your schedule efficiently is key to running a successful coaching business. CoachIQ makes it easy to block out unavailable dates and add flexibility to your scheduling. Here’s how you can take control of your availability.

Step 1: Accessing Blackout Date Settings

Blackout dates are perfect for holidays, personal days, or any time you want to ensure no sessions are booked. Here’s how to set them up:

  1. Navigate to "Sessions": Start by heading to your "Sessions" tab in CoachIQ.

  2. Go to "Settings": Click on the "Settings" option within the Sessions tab.

  3. Add Blackout Dates: Here, you can easily add blackout dates to any of your scheduling availabilities, ensuring you won’t be booked when you’re unavailable.

Step 2: Customizing the Bullpen Combine Schedule (Example)

To demonstrate, let’s customize the schedule for your Bullpen Combine:

  1. Open Bullpen Combine Settings: Go to the settings for your Bullpen Combine.

  2. Add Specific Dates: Within these settings, you can specify dates that are either available or unavailable for bookings.

  3. Adjust as Needed: Modify these dates anytime to reflect your changing availability.

Step 3: Leveraging Flexibility in Your Schedule

CoachIQ isn’t just about setting strict availability—it’s about giving you the flexibility to adapt. Here’s how you can manage that:

  • Add Availability: If your regular sessions are every Tuesday at 5 pm, but you suddenly have an open slot, simply add that time to your availability. This helps you maximize your booking potential.

  • Block Out Dates: On the flip side, if something comes up, you can block out dates so no one can book during those times.

Key Takeaways

CoachIQ gives you complete control over your schedule with features like:

  • Blackout Dates: Perfect for ensuring you’re not booked when you’re unavailable.

  • Flexible Scheduling: Easily add or remove available times to adapt to your needs.

With these tools, managing your coaching business becomes a breeze, allowing you to focus more on what you do best—coaching.
