What is Zapier, again?
Zapier is an online automation tool that connects your favorite apps, such as Gmail, Slack, Typeform, and over 1,500 more.
For example, let's say that you have a course on Thinkific and you want all new students who enroll in your course to get your Flodesk welcome sequence. It's easy to do a manual upload, but once you've started getting a few a day, the time starts to add up.
We know time is valuable and this is a typical scenario in which Zapier can help make your life easier. You'd create a "zap" so every time a new student enrolls in your Thinkific course, it will trigger their email to be added to a segment in Flodesk, which will automatically start them on your welcome sequence.
And boom, what would've taken you 15-20 mins a day to do, is now all automagically done for you. But this is just one quick example, we're excited to see what YOU will be creating!
