The difficulties of going international: How World Meeting Time can help

POSTED BY JILLIAN SILBERT

“So what about 11 AM here, noon for you, 4 PM for Julie?”

In the middle of June, that was the message that one of my good friends sent me.

For the past 8 weeks, I've been spending my summer break at work as an intern here at Tectonica, living more than 5000 miles away from my native Pennsylvania.  Similarly, my college friend group - the same friends that during the school year are never more than a 10 minute walk away from my room - has spread out throughout the world for this summer.  Instead of all being in quaint Princeton, New Jersey, we're divided between Colorado, Greece, Scotland, Argentina (me!), and the list goes on.

Luckily for me, my friend was taking the reigns on organizing our Google hangout call, so I didn't need to deal with the arithmetic of finding a mutually agreeable time.  Of course, this job would have been much easier if we'd just been using World Meeting Time, a Tectonica product ideal for scheduling international meetings.

To organize a meeting with World Meeting Time, you type in each person's location or drag and drop their pin to the appropriate country or state, enter each person's name and email address, and send them a notice about the meeting straight to their inbox!

Everyone is immediately alerted about the meeting, and can even add it directly to their Google Calendar from their email reminder.

For bigger groups and added functionality, you can use World Meeting Time Pro!  For just $5 a month, you can add up to 15 guests, schedule regular meetings, upload contacts from various services and sources, save contact information, and sync with Google calendar.

Whereas World Meeting Time is perfect for the sporadic group calls that my friend group organizes, World Meeting Time Pro is ideal for all of your business needs and will help you run your business more smoothly.  If you need to schedule meetings with international clients (like we do on a regular basis), connect with business partners who are off on exotic vacations, or figure out what times would be convenient for conference calls for a domestic business that expands across state lines, then WMT Pro could be just the tool you need.

Whether you're a college student like me or a businessperson, check out World Meeting Time here!
