Tl;dr Kathleen Metcalfe, the powerhouse founder and CEO at Kammbium, helps real estate agents and teams thrive by bringing clarity to their operations. With 22 years of experience, she swears by YouCanBookMe to keep her scheduling and client management on point—a must in the fast-paced real estate world. |
Kathleen Metcalfe didn’t just stumble into the real estate world—she built Kammbium with a clear purpose. After years in retail and recruiting, she realized she had a knack for helping people get organized. So, she made it her mission to coach real estate agents and admins, guiding them from disorganization to a well-structured, efficient operation.

“ Salespeople are trained to sell, but not necessarily to operate.” - Kathleen Metcalf |
She noticed that while real estate agents excel at closing deals and building relationships, they often struggle with the day-to-day operations that keep a business running smoothly. Things like managing schedules, following up with leads, and coordinating team activities were points of failure for a ton of agents, and she wanted to change that.
That’s where Kammbium comes in. Kathleen saw this gap and knew she could help real agents not only succeed in sales but also build sustainable, efficient businesses. Her approach focuses on streamlining processes, implementing effective systems, and ensuring that every part of the business is aligned.
Whether it’s automating administrative tasks or setting up a clear structure for team collaboration, Kammbium provides the support agents need to thrive in all aspects of their business, not just in sales.
Kathleen knows the power of technology in running a successful business. She’s integrated several tools into Kammbium’s operations to ensure everything runs smoothly, from managing schedules to tracking leads.
But the standout tool in her arsenal is undeniably YouCanBookMe.
As Kammbium grew, she realized she needed a reliable way to manage her increasingly busy calendar. After switching to Google’s ecosystem, she discovered YouCanBookMe—and it quickly became her go-to coaching scheduling software.

“One of the reasons why we started using YouCanBookMe even more is because we wanted to have a link for people to see when they could schedule with us and be able to come in.” - Kathleen Metcalf |
We hear you, Kathleen. In fact, that’s exactly why we built this game-changing feature!
By providing clients with a simple scheduling link, she eliminated the endless back-and-forth emails and the confusion over time zones, making it easier for everyone to book time with her.
Once she signed up, it was pretty much love at first sight thanks to:
This level of automation has not only improved client attendance but also freed up her time to focus on delivering value during her coaching sessions.
Kathleen also uses YouCanBookMe to simplify her sales process.
Now, Kammbium can offer both complimentary and paid sessions seamlessly. This flexibility means that when a client wants to schedule time with her—whether it's a free consultation or a paid coaching session—they can simply select their preferred option and book directly through the platform. No more back-and-forth emails or awkward payment follow-ups.
The automated system handles it all, allowing clients to book (and pay) in one step.

Before YouCanBookMe, Kathleen, like all business owners, really struggled with no-shows.
|
“What we found were the no-show ratios have increased at times over the years. And we didn't think that that was because they didn't want to talk to us…they still like us and they still are paying, so they must want to come…[it’s] the busyness factor, the distraction factor..." - Kathleen Metcalf |
We, like Kathleen, know that life gets busy. Distractions happen. We're all human, after all, and as much as we wish we had perfect memories, we just don't! That’s where YouCanBookMe comes in.
This platform is designed to take the human error out of things, sending automated email and SMS reminders that ensure clients remember their sessions and make it on time.
And here’s the thing: Kathleen isn’t glued to her desk, frantically texting everyone to remind them. She set up automated reminders and follow-ups, filled out the necessary details on her booking form, and let YouCanBookMe handle the rest.
This simple automation has been a game-changer, keeping Kammbium running smoothly and freeing up Kathleen.
For Kathleen, success in real estate isn’t just about closing deals—it’s about building meaningful connections and fostering collaboration. She thrives on networking and creating strong affiliate relationships, embodying what she describes as the core of feminine leadership.

“I think there’s abundance everywhere. There’s plenty of room for everyone to be successful. So, who are the brokers, who are the coaches, who are the vendors, who are all working in this environment inside the industry? And how can we come together to refer business to one another so that we can help everyone be successful?” - Kathleen Metcalf |
