Setting up a conferencing call is a piece of cake (yum) with PowWowNow. Businesses need to be able to run their meetings at a drop of a hat, and conference calls facilitate just that (we’re a poet and didn’t know it). Not only does it need to be super speedy to sign up, but it also needs to be quick to set up and join a conference.
Schedule
This is how to schedule & join a conference call
Everyone likes an invite, right? Makes them feel special. When scheduling a conferencing call, send a calendar invite so you aren’t alone wondering how everyone forgot the meeting you’ve been planning for days.
1. Create a calendar invite as you would usually when you’re booking a meeting
2. Add the guests you want to invite, along with the date and time of the meeting and change the location to a ‘conference call’ or whatever tickles your fancy
3. Provide the dial-in numbers and PIN in the body of the invite and briefly explain how to join the call
4. Press send! Boom, now your colleagues can’t make any excuses if they don’t turn up
5. When it’s time to join your call, all you need to do is enter your dial-in number and PIN. Make sure you’ve got it to hand to avoid any unnecessary hiccups!
6. If you are dialling in via our mobile app you can use our one click dial-in feature, which will input your PIN automatically.
7.State your name when prompted and you can begin your meeting! All aboard the call train *whoop whoop*

Wonderful service and support - as an elderly group, none of us had used a conference call system before, but PowWowNow's instructions and support have been way beyond our imagination and we're now confidently making calls 4 times a week. Thank you for making life more bearable for a group of people suffering from lockdown during the COVID-19 crisis.
