Tag: Automation

All of us complain about the lack of time, but only some do something about it. I’ll show you how to learn automation and save precious time during the day.
With today’s services and integrations, it’s easier than never to automate tedious tasks and have Power Automate, for example, do them for you. I’ll show you how to do that by giving you examples of tasks that I’ve automated and how you can automate them. You will learn how to do that for other tasks in your life and develop precious skills in the process.
Things like automatically organize your email, extract attachments, send automatic reports, and more.
Saving 5 minutes here and there will add up quickly. You’ll be free to do other things in your life, like read a book, or spend time with your family.
Finally, automation of tasks will ensure that they are always done consistently. This avoids mistakes that can cost you more time and money to fix.
