Opening message: On the Dot by OnceHub: Scheduling Advice With Gary the Tortoise

Gary: “Welcome back to On the Dot! Today, we’ve got Alex, a business owner who’s facing some scheduling blues. Alex, you’re on the dot—what’s your scheduling struggle?”

Alex: “Hi, Gary. I miss Vernon.”

Gary (confused): “Vernon? Did I miss something? Who’s Vernon?”

Alex: “Vernon was my assistant. He was amazing! He greeted everyone warmly, answered their questions, and always knew what to do—when to solve the problem himself, when to schedule a meeting, and when to escalate something urgent. Since he left, we’ve been using booking calendars, and they’re great, but… they’re not Vernon.”

Gary: “Ah, Vernon sounds like a legend. No one can replace him—but I think I’ve got something that comes close. Have you tried AI-driven scheduling?”

Alex: “AI? Like robots?”

Gary: “Not quite. Think of it as a virtual assistant that handles scheduling conversations just like Vernon would! Let me show you.”

Gary: “Meet your AI scheduling assistant. It greets visitors, answers their questions, and even solves problems without needing to book a meeting. It knows when to offer an instant meeting, schedule something for later, or hand the conversation over to a real person.”

Alex: “Wow, so it’s like having Vernon’s intuition… but 24/7?”

Gary: “Exactly! And when it’s time to schedule, the AI finds the right calendar and meeting type based on the conversation—no forms, no confusion.”

Alex: “Okay, this sounds incredible. But I’m not a techy person. How would I even set this up?”

Gary: “Don’t worry, Alex, it’s simple! It’s basically like teaching a new team member. Just tell it about your business, services, and FAQs. It can even learn from your website and other resources to give spot-on responses.”

Alex: “Gary, this might not be Vernon, but it’s pretty close… Can it go for a beer after work with me like Vernon used to?”

Gary: “Well, no, Alex… It’s a bot. But it will save you so much time, you’ll have more opportunities to grab a beer yourself!”

Alex: “Fair enough. This is a game-changer, Gary. Thank you!”

Gary: “Happy to help, Alex. Remember, it’s about making every interaction count. Till next time, folks, it’s not just scheduling—it’s OnceHub!”
