If I had to start over today, here's EXACTLY what I'd do in the next 30 days. WEEK 1: LEARN AND PREPARE DAY 1-2: Choose invoice processing (universal pain) DAY 3-5: Learn Make.com basics - Make Academy (free) - YouTube tutorials - Build 3 sample workflows DAY 6-7: Build demo workflow with PDF Vector free plan Templates: Make | Zapier | n8n WEEK 2: POSITION AND REACH OUT DAY 8-9: Join communities - 10 local business Facebook groups - 5 LinkedIn industry groups - 3 Reddit communities DAY 10-12: Search for pain points - Keywords: "manually entering", "tedious" - Find 20 posts complaining about manual work DAY 13-14: Engage genuinely - Comment helpful advice on 20 posts - NO pitching yet WEEK 3: FIND AND CLOSE DAY 15-17: Identify leads - Find 5 people with document processing pain - Start conversations via DM DAY 18-20: Discovery calls - Book 3 calls - Use discovery call framework - Listen more than talk DAY 21: Send proposals - Use winning template - Clear next steps - 50% deposit structure WEEK 4: BUILD AND DELIVER DAY 22-24: Build workflow - Use template library - Customize for client - Test thoroughly DAY 25-27: Demo and revise - Walk client through - Make adjustments DAY 28-30: Deliver and celebrate - Go live - Train client - Collect final payment REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS Not everyone closes in 30 days. Some take 45. Normal. People who follow this plan: 70%+ get first client within 30 days. People who stop at day 15: 0% success. MOST COMMON MISTAKE Stopping when you don't see immediate results. Days 10-20 feel slow. That's when most quit. Push through. Momentum comes. TOOLS TO SET UP Make.com (start free) PDF Vector (free plan for testing, $25/month for clients) Gmail (free) Stripe or PayPal TOTAL COST: $0-25/month initially RESOURCES CHECKLIST

I have been working on this automation for a few days now (just trying to get familiar). I am able to execute the workflow successfully, however whenever a new pdf is added to the Google Drive folder, the information is not transferred to the spreadsheet. I keeps giving the same information from the first pdf invoice added. How can I change this so it updates accordingly?

I know the demos are a great informational “selling” point but I have a few questions. First, how exactly am I doing a demo? Is it just me recording myself building an automation? And if so, will it matter that the potential client can see the platform I am using? Secondly, at what point am I using the demo? Is it on a website, sent in initial email or on the booking call? And lastly, do I make a demo for each type of workflow automation I build? My apologies for the paragraph. Just mapping out my next steps. 😌

There is a learning curve when trying to learn a new skill. My question is; are automations easier to grasp on Make.com or n8n as a newbie? Which is better to start from scratch with & scale later? Just curious what the overall thoughts are ☺️
