Built an AI-powered marketing automation workflow that turns a simple prompt into fully generated and published social media campaigns.
The workflow:
Refines prompts using AI
Generates creatives through Canva
Adds a human approval layer
Publishes content to LinkedIn, Facebook, and X automatically
Captures leads and updates dashboards in real time
If content gets rejected, the workflow automatically regenerates improved versions and retries the process.
Built using n8n, AI integrations, Canva API, and automated lead capture systems.

Brand work doesn't end when the manual gets delivered. Branding is only effective when it's smoothly applied across mediums - decks, emails, websites, social media, print assets.
For DealDesk, we built an extensive template system: presentation decks, social media posts, one-pagers. The goal was to equip early-stage founders to keep asset production costs low while maintaining perfect brand alignment. Every template follows the same visual logic: confident typography, controlled teal palette, editorial photography standards.
The result: a self-sufficient system that scales without a full-time design team.
Intentional work. Every piece has a purpose.
This is my personal favorite. It is a mobile template that starts as a historical field-study app — ancient sources, naval battles, storms and shipwrecks, historical maps combined with everyday tasks, and references — then shows how the same structure can become a launch plan, fitness tracker, client workflow, or content system.
One focused workspace. Any project.
Nice!
It’s a common misconception that automation is a "set it and forget it" kind of thing. Over the past few days, I’ve been deep in the setup for a large-scale online event where the data flow between Typeform, OneDrive (Excel), and Slack felt more like an obstacle course at first.
What I often see in these projects is a massive manual workload happening behind the scenes: attendee data being exported, analyzed, and shoved into spreadsheets by hand, while the team on Slack doesn't have the info they need when they need it.
This doesn't just eat up time; it drains the mental capacity needed for MMAs (Money Making Activities). You really just want a system that handles the logic while you focus on managing the exceptions.
My solution: The data flows automatically now, but I’ve integrated an AI step that categorizes responses before they even hit the Slack Canvas.
Building this took several hours and a few feedback loops with Grok and ChatGPT, but the result is that manual operations were cut down to just a few minutes, replaced by occasional maintenance.
Of course, it’s not "set and forget." If the form changes or a new event comes up, I need to update the Zaps and maybe tweak the AI’s categorization. But that’s qualified maintenance instead of repetitive copy-pasting.
One side effect that clients value most: This shifts the process from constant human dependency to sporadic system maintenance. The workflow no longer stalls if someone is away—the system just keeps running.
Watching the logic chain verify and file real data correctly makes you realize just how much brain capacity was tied up in the old process.
If you’re building an event setup right now and feel like your tools are clashing instead of flowing: Let me know in the comments what your biggest workflow time-sink is.
