Ok, let's build something 🤓

Quick and dirty 👀

The other day I found an app which makes creating step by step online walkthroughs really simple.

It enables anyone, anywhere to easily capture what they do.

Here's what I'm thinking...

THREAD

Idea - the simplest possible way for people to capture what they know how to do online.

People should be able to make custom requests and people should be able to respond to them with a solution (walkthrough) of how to do it.

First for the landing page...

@carrd obviously

Grab a landing page template, any will do.

Add some text + another button.

(I'm terrible at copy btw, this is going to be dirty remember)

Write some features (can refine later)

Grab a couple of images from undraw.co, colour matched of course.

Fix up the CTA at the bottom + add another button.

Removed the form and changed for buttons as going to be sending people through to @airtable.

2 CTA's - Request Walkthrough and Register to Create Walkthroughs

We'll need 2 Airtable forms or 1 with logic....

New Base in Airtable.

2 Tables.

- 1 for Walkthrough Makers
- 1 for Walkthrough Requests

(no idea what to call this yet)

2 Airtable Forms so both buyers and sellers can sign up.

Typing random words quickly 😂

Connect @airtable form links to site Buttons so folks can make it through to the forms.

Ok done with this part.

Will add tools to the Airtable Multi-select fields later or may leave them as Text, not sure.

Save and publish the Carrd site on a Carrd URL.

(process feels like a better word, will 100% change though 😂)

Site is live here (added a screengrab as the share image) - processmarket.carrd.co

Ok before we get to the Zaps...

Let's talk about @usecursive.

This is the app that let's you click record and it does the rest.

This will let our walkthrough makers create uniform walkthroughs in PDF format real fast.

cursive.io/scribe

Thanks to @edmundamoye for the heads up on the broken link!

Now for some @zapier to auto-respond to Makers + Requesters once they complete the forms.

Auto-responder Zap done for walkthrough makers 🥳

Ok, so that's 56 mins.

- Carrd Site Live
- Airtable Base + Forms Done
- Zap to Send Auto-responder Email Done

Next - Video explainer, fix copy + add payments to request a walkthrough.
