}
```

#### Timezone Optimization:

```javascript theme={null}
// Automatic timezone detection
const callerTimezone = detectTimezoneFromPhone(phoneNumber);
const optimalTimes = getOptimalMeetingTimes(callerTimezone, teamAvailability);

// Show only suitable slots
calendlyLink = generateCustomLink({
  timezone: callerTimezone,
  availableSlots: optimalTimes,
  duration: meetingDuration
});
