Gareth Pronovost Gives Us The 411 on Automating Your Organization Using Airtable – No Coding Required.

#048 – Today I am speaking with Gareth Pronovost about using Airtable to automate workflows to 1) save time; 2) reduce errors; 3) stay organized; 4) allow for a single source of truth; and 5) grow and scale their organization.  Gareth asks – are you overwhelmed by an endless sea of spreadsheets?”  I think most of us would say YES!  

The good news is Airtable DOES NOT require any coding experience.  You just need to know your processes.  Gareth tells us that the biggest payoffs come in email and reporting.  He calls it the compounding effect…

I challenge everyone to think about the compounding effect of 10 minutes a day.  It’s like interest on your life – interest on the time that you have on this earth.  Why pay that interest?  Rather than type up that same email 10 times that takes you 10 minutes a day, do it one time.  And so what if it takes you an hour and a half to figure out how to build an automation? You’ll have made that back in two weeks, and now you save yourself an hour a week into perpetuity.”
