My reason for me first is so that itโs easier for them to see on their calendar - I actually think of that as a courtesy. Food for thought!

Yeah, I understand that, but in this business, with every AE doing the same thing all the time, it's nice to draw a contrast between you and the other guy.
This really isn't a holy war, whether one is more right than the other, it's a matter of style. I'd (personally) rather zig when all other AEs are zagging, and I feel like that sets me apart, even it's just by 1%. Maybe that 1% lands me one more deal than I would have had otherwise. I think buyers notice small details like that throughout a buying process.

Your company + my company - subject I have the other company in the subject so I can see at a glance what's happening on my calendar, plus it helps the rest of my team. If everything on my calendar is "my company - subject", it's a mess. Source: had a BDR that would schedule meetings that way and it was a mess.

Meeting Subject | Company / Product Name For example:
Improving Sales Team Morale | Bravado
This answers the two most important questions about external meetings immediately for busy stakeholders:
- What is this meeting about? - Which vendor is this meeting with?
