Make the most of Demodesk features by completely customising your meetings to your needs. This article will show you how to optimally prepare your meetings and adjust your Slides before and within the demo!
At Demodesk, the core structure of the meeting depends the Playbook, hence we will focus on it in this article. Playbooks work as a template or script for your Demodesk meeting. They help you to keep a clear structure and never lose track.
Make sure to be familiar with the usage of Playbooks before reading this article, as we are going to discuss best practices.
If we are good to go, let me quickly give you an overview of this article:
How to prepare your Playbook before the meeting
We now show the "prepare" button next to meetings that are not yet started (so it is over 5 minutes before the scheduled start time).
Once you click on it, you can:
change the slides
add notes
start the meeting from that screen
Demodesk allows you to adjust the Playbook right before the meeting without changing the original Parent-Playbook. You just need to follow some easy steps to do so:
Go to your upcoming meetings in the dashboard
Click on Prepare
Choose Playbook at the top, right under the Scheduling toggle button
Click on Customize
Make your changes
The new version will now be saved as customized
How to use Google Slides in your Playbook
While we provide standardised Playbooks, there might be a situation where you need to use Google slides to customise your presentation. No Problem! That can easily be done with Demodesk as well, just check your settings. For a more detailed description of how to find the right settings, take a look at this article about tokens.
When everything is set up, you can customize your presentation to your customer. That means the usage of Tokens will ensure, that specific information will automatically be adjusted to your guest.
How to update your Playbook in the meeting
