Five calendar habits
- 1
One source of truth. Every booking goes into one calendar, not notebooks and chats.
- 2
Hold dates on enquiry. Mark tentative dates so nobody promises them twice.
- 3
Add buffers. Travel and setup time between functions.
- 4
Assign the team. Know who is shooting what, especially in peak season.
- 5
Sync to your phone. Check clashes before you say yes on a call.
