There's so much to do each day, it's hard to find the time to simplify your work and find ways to cut out the busywork.
With a tool like Zapier, our app automation platform that connects over 750 apps, there are ways for almost everyone to work more efficiently. Zaps–workflows you can create to send data between web apps–can file info, copy information, reach out to contacts, share content, and much more automatically. Instead of wasting minutes manually moving each piece of data for each task, Zapier would get your busywork done for you.
So you can spend more time on work that really matters.
All you need is a few minutes to set up Zaps—but where should you start?
We've written the book for you.
We've dug through hundreds of apps and use cases to find the most popular ways Zapier users save time every day. We organized those Zaps for different jobs and task purposes, so you can quickly find just the Zap you need. All you have to do is click on one of the Zap templates to add it to your account. And we put it all together in our new Automation Inspiration eBook.
Say you'd like to get a daily email with all of your Xero invoices. There's a Zap for that.
Maybe you want to share all of your new blog posts to Facebook more easily. Voilà.
Perhaps you're tired of copying text from emails and pasting it into a spreadsheet. Zapier can do that for you too.
You might even need a translator to help you read customer support tickets. Actually, no—all you need is a Zap.
There are hundreds of apps that work with Zapier, and tens of thousands of ways to use them together. But you don't need thousands of Zaps—all you need to get started is a Zap that helps you save a few minutes of work each day.
So the next time you have a few minutes to spare, check out Zapier's Automation Inspiration book. There, you'll discover Zaps that can help you automate:
