I make these things into TODO items so it's

** TODO Meeting with XXXX

and when you mark it DONE it stops showing up on the agenda.  If you
don't do it when scheduled it starts carrying forward in the agenda.

Alternatively you can just use a date without SCHEDULED: and it'll be
only at the specific time you specify.

I prefer using TODO/DONE so it's obvious when things are complete and I
can archive them later without having to look at the date to see if it's
in the future/past.
