Starbucks for Microsoft Outlook allows users to set up coffee meetings straight from their inbox. Tired of your usual office meetings and generic “thank you” notes? Starbucks and Microsoft have joined forces to boost your inbox with a caffeine jolt. On Wednesday 15th June 2016, a plugin released on the Microsoft Office Store and within the web version of outlook. This new free feature allows Microsoft Outlook users to set up meetings at their nearby Starbucks locations. Coffee and productivity go hand in hand, after all."In this fast-paced, hyper-connected world, where meetings are often conducted remotely or in a formal office setting, we sometimes lose a personal connection which is so important in building a great business relationship," Microsoft wrote on its website. "Outlook now makes it easier for you to have that personal connection by enabling you to meet your customers, business partners or study group at your favorite Starbucks location."
Just click the "Meet at Starbucks" command at the top of the screen when you’re creating a new meeting request, search for a nearby Starbucks, and set it as the assembly point. You can also send Starbucks eGift cards to friends and acquaintances with this new feature, showing gratitude through coffee. Show your appreciation by gifting employees' and business partners' their daily dose of caffeine via a Starbucks eGift Card, sent directly from your inbox. You can choose a theme and amount worthy of your gratitude once you’re logged into your Starbucks account.
