Tl;dr: Rob Kosberg helps entrepreneurs become bestselling authors, and YouCanBookMe helps him get there—one perfectly scheduled call at a time. With over 17,000 consultations booked using YouCanBookMe (in less than ONE YEAR!) Rob’s team runs like a well-oiled machine, focusing on creating bestsellers instead of managing their schedules.

Rob Kosberg, the founder of Bestseller Publishing, knows that when it comes to running a business, timing is everything. His job? Turning entrepreneurs into bestselling authors. His secret weapon? YouCanBookMe, of course!

These consultations are the lifeblood of his business, offering a personalized experience for clients looking to craft their story. And, as we all know, getting someone to actually show up to those calls can be a challenge. Enter: YouCanBookMe.

Since 2017, Rob’s team has booked over 17,000 calls using YouCanBookMe’s team scheduling app. With a powerful built-in autoresponder and seamless Zapier integration, Rob’s business keeps moving smoothly. His team doesn’t waste time chasing no-shows or wrestling with outdated booking systemsthey focus on what really matters: creating bestsellers.

"For us, it's the simple stuff we love. I love the built-in autoresponder."

The power of a booked call (pun intended) 

Rob’s business thrives on book funnels. His clients are pulled in through ads, webinars, and other digital goodies, eventually landing on his bestseller-building consultation page. That’s where YouCanBookMe shines, transforming these leads into real, booked appointments.

His secret sauce? Custom follow-ups and reminders. Rob’s clients get automatic email and text reminders (because let’s face it, life gets busy), ensuring they don’t miss that all-important call with one of his author development coaches.

“We've customized all of our follow-ups so that when they book an appointment, they actually get on the call with us.”

Integrating for success

Rob’s tech stack doesn’t stop at YouCanBookMe. By connecting YCBM with Zapier, his team automates everything from lead capture to CRM updates. With hundreds of Zaps running, Rob’s business runs smoothly without any manual work bogging things down. YouCanBookMe’s seamless integration makes it all possible.

“We've booked tens of thousands of calls... Obviously this has worked very, very well for us.”

It’s this kind of reliability that keeps his team on track, ensuring they can focus on turning potential clients into bestselling authors.

Efficiency matters

One of Rob’s favorite features is how YouCanBookMe handles high-volume scheduling. With 17,000+ calls booked, the platform is built to handle the pressure without a hitch. Rob’s business relies on a quick turnaround time, allowing clients to book appointments within a tight three-day window to keep things fresh and urgent. 

The logic is simple—if someone books more than three days out, there’s a good chance they’ll forget about it. In 24 hours, they may forget who we are, so three days is our max,” Rob says with a laugh.

It’s all about efficiency, and YouCanBookMe helps make sure those appointments don’t slip through the cracks.
