Zapier is one of the most powerful and most-loved automation tools. It’s used by thousands of businesses including Adobe and Typeform and has a $5+ billion valuation. Understanding how to use Zapier is becoming as important to businesses as understanding how to use a spreadsheet.

Do you wish you could automate tedious, manual tasks that you’d otherwise have to do yourself?
Do you have various streams of data you need to connect in one place?
Have you tried using Zapier before, but felt like you weren’t able to use it effectively?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, keep reading!

- You’ll learn how to automate repetitive tasks
- You’ll reduce software development costs inside your business
- You’ll reclaim time thanks to automation
I’ve built complex automations with Zapier used by teams of employees at venture-backed startups, and will teach you exactly what you need to know to implement Zapier inside your own business. You'll learn everything I know that I've used to earn tens of thousands of dollars building with Zapier for others.
This course is up-to-date, and will be consistently updated as Zapier adds new features.
Unlike other courses that take you through boring theory and out-of-context assignments, this course teaches through real-world projects.
You’ll learn by building projects including:
- Add starred items in Gmail to to-do list software
