How to Forward Your Domain to an Appointment Scheduler (So You Can Start Networking Now!)

If you’re a bookkeeper eager to network and hand out business cards but don’t yet have a website, there’s an easy solution to maintain a professional online presence: forward your domain to an appointment scheduler like Calendly.

Instead of leading potential clients to a parked domain page or an unfinished website, this setup ensures that when they type in your website URL, they’ll land on your scheduling page—where they can easily book a consultation with you.

Why Forward Your Domain?

Looks Professional – A domain-based link (e.g., www.yourbookkeepingbiz.com) on your business card gives off a polished, credible impression.


Makes It Easy for Clients to Take Action – No searching for an email or phone number—just a direct way to schedule a call with you.


Lets You Market NOW (Even Without a Full Website) – You don’t have to wait for your website to be perfect before you start networking.


Flexible & Temporary Solution – When your full website is ready, you can simply update the domain to point to it.

How to Forward Your Domain (Step-by-Step)

The process varies depending on where you purchased your domain, but the general steps are:

  1. Log into your domain registrar account.
  2. Find your domain settings (look for “Manage Domains” or “DNS Settings”).
  3. Locate the Domain Forwarding option.
  4. Enter the URL of your appointment scheduler (e.g., your Calendly link).
  5. Save your changes and allow time for propagation.

A Missed Message, a Lesson in Grace, and Six Years of Showing Up Anyway

This week, I got a message from someone who felt one of my team’s outreach messages was impersonal. At first? Oof. My stomach dropped. But then—I realized it was exactly what I needed to hear.

After six years in business, I’m still learning. Still adjusting. Still figuring out what it looks like to grow a business that values real connection over shortcuts.

And honestly? I’m grateful for the reminder.

I wrote a new blog post about what happened, what I learned, and how I’m using feedback to build a better experience—not just for clients, but for myself too.
