Repetitive tasks waste your time? Simple automation but never bothered to look into *how* to do it?

‍

I wanted to monitor a friend's Facebook page and make it possible for anyone to sign up with their email to get a notification (with the content of the post) when he publishes a new item.

‍

With the help of a freelancer, we built a simple Make.com automation that does exactly that.

‍

Cost: $100, but once you learn the basics, it's a 30-minute effort.

‍

This is extremely simple for anyone dealing with automation, but it's eye-opening for us the non-geeks and semi-geeks to see how easy it is to do.

‍

And of course, the sky is the limit when it comes to "if/then" automations.

‍

- event management

‍

- briefing generation

‍

- meeting preparation

‍

- basic policy tracker,

‍

- invoice management

‍

- social media monitoring

‍

- newsletter creation

‍

…almost any workflow can be automated in a 100% customized way *exactly* the way you need it.

‍

It's a paradigm shift once you dip your toe into it. Definitely so for me.

‍

Are you using such tools? What's your experience?
