How to avoid “back and forth” when scheduling appointments

 
Some administrators have told us that before using BibliCare, they used to spend days going back and forth about availability! To avoid the back-and-forth, it’s helpful to include a question in one of your pre-counseling forms that reads something like, “Our ministry is open for counseling on weekdays from 8am-5pm PST. Please list five times within this timeframe that you would be available for counseling in order of preference.” When you do this, you’ll be able to choose the time that is most convenient for you (the assigned counselor). If your counselee needs to reschedule, you’ll already have alternative backup times ready – eliminating the need for “back and forth” again.

About BibliCare
Tony’s church was using several tools to manage their counseling ministry. Over time, the counselors’ filing cabinets grew heavier, the excel sheets multiplied, and organization flew out the window. At that point, Tony decided that he needed to get coffee with a programmer named Bob. Together, they drafted up a concept for a website that would solve their problems – BibliCare. After BibliCare was created and Tony’s counseling ministry was finally running smoothly, Bob realized that other biblical counselors were likely having the same management problems that Tony had.
Today, our mission at BibliCare is to help biblical counselors spend less time managing their ministry and more time providing biblically-based counsel.
