# How to create a Meeting Type?

> Customize your meeting configuration like duration, buffers and invite texts for your meetings in a few simple steps

Meeting types allow you to define the different types of meetings you want your customers to be able to schedule with your sales team.

**For example,** you might want to have different meeting types for:

1. SDR teams to qualify your prospects.
2. AE reps to give product demos and close deals.
3. Implementation or Success teams to help your prospect successfully implement your product.
4. Book meetings from an offline event.

It also lets you create personalized calendar invites and reminder templates that can be sent based on the type of meeting booked.

**Here’s how the different meeting types work and when to use each.**

| **Meeting Type**                        | **What it’s for**                                                                                                                                                                |

| Book meetings with default availability | Uses your standard availability settings (personal or team). Ideal for everyday use, like website booking forms and scheduling links.                                            |
| Book meetings for an event              | Purpose-built for event-specific availability. Let's you show calendars only for the event days, and control whether reps can take meetings from other sources during the event. |
| Book meetings with custom availability  | Lets you set unique availability independent of your default schedule. Perfect for special cases like support calls, onboarding, or implementation sessions on specific days.    |
