FAQ

1. What is Smart Business Automation, and what is the purpose of this course?
This course focuses on solving real business challenges by teaching a practical automation framework (Pain Point → Process → People → Tools → Cost). Participants will learn how to identify opportunities for automation and apply the framework directly to their own work environments, helping to improve efficiency and reduce human error.

3. What will I learn, and what tools will be used?
The course provides hands-on practice and guides participants through the process of building automation workflows step by step under the instructor's guidance.
The main platform used is Make.com, a no-code visual automation tool that allows users to connect applications such as email, spreadsheets, and instant messaging apps through a drag-and-drop interface. Participants will also learn how AI can assist with content understanding and decision-making within automated processes.

4. What will I gain after completing the course?
Upon completion, participants will understand a practical Automation Framework for identifying automation opportunities, gain access to ready-to-use automation workflow templates, and be able to draft a Return on Investment (ROI) analysis tailored to their own organization.
