There are two kinds of people — those who automate, and those who dig.

Client onboarding. New inquiry comes in — automation creates a project folder, sends a welcome email, adds to CRM, schedules follow-up. Fires in three seconds. No human needed.

Social scheduling. Report generation. Invoice creation. Anything you do the same way twice — automate it. If you're building sites with Claude Code , you can automate deployment checks too.

Deployment checks! I just started using Claude Code and it's already changing everything. You're telling me I can automate THAT too? My friend, you just made my whole week!

Webhook triggers on git push, pipeline runs your build, tests output, deploys to staging, sends notification. Zero babysitting. The Starter Kit has a good breakdown of these workflows.

Start simple though. One workflow solid. Then add the next. Reliable beats clever.

Smart. I have a bad habit of wanting everything at once and then nothing works and I'm yelling at my screen at 2am. One at a time. My email automation is solid. Next: that onboarding workflow.
