Helping others earn more doing less w/ automation since 2013

Automation is a wonderful thing. I'm in a brand new expert directory started by someone in VC. It's been sitting there collecting providers for about a month until finally today, a project posted on Friday got approved in the portal - the first project to show up. I responded to it within 2 hours, and it was a robust enough project it took about an hour to craft my response. How? I was notified when it was posted. Not because the portal itself had any such ability. But because *I* set up *my own* automation to notify me of new project posts there. What are the chances I'll get this project ($15k+) without any of the other providers on that portal even being aware a project was posted? P.S. Logo is unrelated - one of our old brands we'll be reviving soon enough, stay tuned!

Automation is fun. For a RE investment training client, whenever he posts new training events in Eventbrite and gets registrants into them, this happens: - Zapier ports the contact into ActiveCampaign - Zapier sets the event date in the contact's contact record - Zapier also reformats the date into a display date (i.e. November 21st, 2025) and 3 additional formats, used for the code for add-to-calendar buttons - Various reminder emails leading up to the event automatically go out on schedule referencing the date and giving add-to-calendar buttons (with the properly formatted dates spliced in) so they can set it in their calendar - I set this automation up over 2 years ago and haven't had to touch it after now 25+ events AI's amazing too, but good ol' automation when done right is a nice set-and-forget.

We updated a client's branding about 9 years ago and this is still one of my favorite simple logos/branding we've done.

In this age of AI, people often forget about plain ol' automation. One of our clients for over 12 years, Good Life Project, wanted to automate the posting of their Kit newsletters for their Sparketype brand onto their site. We were able to use a cron job to check their outgoing Kit broadcasts specifically for those newsletters and post them to their site automatically, with the check happening every few hours so it wouldn't post them immediately (helps give actual newsletter subscribers the first read, which should always be the case). It's worked seamlessly since we set it up, and it gives their website visitors and anyone coming from Google search more to check out as well by leveraging Wordpress to show related posts. The Kit part was the easiest and in general that's been a fantastic system to work with over the years.
