Building a workflow in Airtable is an important part of creating scalable processes. One workflow that almost all growing businesses have is the need to receive and review job applications. In this video, I break down how you can create an application process using Airtable and also how to automate the creation of managerial review.

Of course, review is a semi-manual process. There will always...

The future is looking very bright for Airtable. Not only did they receive another round of investment at $185M this week, they also released some incredible new features. The most anticipated of these is arguably what they have dubbed Airtable Sync. This new tool gives us the ability to connect data across our Airtable bases (databases)!

If you find yourself creating the same tables in...

Airtable has shipped some very exciting new updates for September, 2020! Check out this walkthrough as we review their new announcement and dive into the future for the software. Specifically, Airtable has focused on three new features:

With the new release of the Airtable Automations feature, Airtable has unlocked amazing new potential for its users. While it's still in the early stages, this feature allows us to automate from directly inside our databases, without needing to use a third-party software. But does this mean that users can completely abandon their Zapier accounts and run all of their automation directly inside...

The most powerful feature of Airtable is that it is a relational database. However, this very capability can often prove troublesome. More specifically, a relational database is outstanding at presenting the current state of things. However, it's not always the best fit for demonstrating historical data.

If you're unfamiliar with it, Zapier is a powerful tool that connects software on the internet using "If this, than that" logic. It allows you to set up processes that are governed by a set of rules.

In last week's tutorial, I outlined the database structure that would support an hourly consulting agency. We mapped the steps to creating the Team, linking that with Consultations and Clients. We also outlined the steps to adding a table of Invoices so that our team members can get accurately paid for their efforts.

But of course, the proper database structure is only the first part of this...

Calendly, a scheduling software, syncs with your personal calendar and allows others to schedule time with you if they have your personal link.

In this, the conclusion of my social media automation video series, I'm walking through using automation to create an image ready for social media.

Bannerbear is a fun new software that I discovered recently. The premise behind it is that you potentially waste time by creating an image based on a template. For example, I have YouTube thumbnails for the videos that I upload to YouTube. They are...

Social media has become something that practically every business needs to leverage in order to stay competitive. When speaking with clients, it's very common for them to tell me that they reached out because of our YouTube channel. In our case, using video to help with Airtable demonstrations is a critical component of our business, but of course it's not the only option. Businesses of all...
