Creating a FREE Group Meeting (for the Provider/Host)

1. Sign into your KnowledgeSuite Provider Account

2. From the Dashboard click on the +SCHEDULE MEETING (in the top left corner).

This will bring up the “Schedule a New Meeting” screen.

 3. Give the meeting (or webinar) a TITLE

Choose a title that will make it easy for you and your invitees to remember and identify. Keep it fairly short. There’s no need to include a date.

4.  Beneath the title field, there’s a DESCRIPTION field

This is where you can provide more details about the event if you like. A couple of sentences is typically appropriate. If you leave it blank, KnowledgeSuite will fill in "KnowledgeSuite Meeting".

5. Choose a Date and Time

For the WHEN option, for a Webinar, it will typically be a date in the future. For a Meeting, it may be a future date or a “start now”.

• If the meeting will take place right away, select START NOW and proceed to step 6.
• If the meeting begins in the future, select FUTURE DATE and a little calendar will appear.
• Choose the date you would like your meeting/Webinar to take place on.
• To the right of the calendar is a timepicker. Scroll down the timepicker to select the time you’d like the meeting/Webinar to begin.

After each address hit the Enter button.

You can host up to 50 people in a free group meeting.

This screen lists all the key data you’ve entered. This meeting is automatically included in your KnowledgeSuite Calendar, and you can sync it to your personal Google, Outlook, or iCal at this point, if you wish.

11. MEETING LINK:

You will notice a new field on the Meeting Details screen, the MEETING LINK. If you’ve mistyped anyone’s email address, or if later on there are more people you’d like to invite to your meeting/Webinar, you can copy the MEETING LINK and send it to them with a short explanation that it’s an invitation to your meeting/Webinar, and you’d love it if they’d consider attending. You can always access this link through the meeting details in your KnowledgeSuite Calendar.

12. Invitations are automatically emailed

The invitations you have sent will go out via individual email messages to each invitee. If any of your invitees are already KnowledgeSuite customers, they will also receive a notification in their KnowledgeSuite Notifications.
