A Rube Goldberg machine is an overly complex device that performs a simple task through a series of chain reactions. If you’re not familiar with automation, it can often feel like building a Rube Golberg machine. But it doesn’t have to! Today, I’m going to tell you how automation can be simple, and give you 12 examples from my own life that prove the point. In the PRO show, I tell you all about why I moved to Thrivecart, and how my “writing on Medium” experiment is going.
Top Takeaways
- The point of automation is to do things so you don’t have to do them. That makes simple tasks the perfect candidates for automation.
- Voice and text expansion can be great ways to get started automating for capturing and writing
- Trigger emails based on status changes in Airtable or Google Sheets are slightly more complicated, but the concept is simple and the time savings are great!
