Simplicity Is the Secret to Scalable Systems
The biggest lesson I’ve learned after 1,700+ projects is this: Simple systems scale, complicated ones collapse. It’s tempting to keep adding steps, filters, and conditions, but every extra piece is one more point of failure. Instead, focus on clarity — every automation should answer one question: what problem does this solve? When your systems are simple, your business becomes flexible. You can grow faster, onboard new team members easily, and fix issues in minutes instead of hours. Simplicity isn’t a beginner move, it’s a pro skill. Do you think your current automations are simple or have become too complex over time?
