Lol love the Canadian plug haha Grew up in New Brunswick and then lived most my life in Maine, joined the Army and never went back North. Love your videos, I'm new with Automations and your videos are helpful. I still suck at getting things to work but getting there.
Hahaha, thanks! Oh nice, that's one of the few places I actually haven't been to in Canada, but I hear it's beautiful. That's great to hear, keep up the work and it'll pay off - it was super difficult for me when I first started too, but with enough time you'll master it :)
@@jonocatliff Hi Jono I tried to follow along but I couldn't get my webhook triggered , I managed to connect it but when I send a message to my slack channel it didn't trigger. I think you missed to mention something. Maybe I need slack app(bot)?
Hey! Of course, here's Make.com's documentation: www.make.com/en/help/app/whatsapp-business-cloud In here, they'll walk through step by step how to do this with pictures. Essentially, you have to register a 'custom app' with Facebook/WhatsApp, then you'll be approved to send and receive messages from WhatsApp in Make.com. Hope this helps :)
Thank you for your great tutorials. Can you please make a tutorial how to use google news as rss feed to build blogs? There is a complication with the retrieved url as it is redirected link from from google news
You'll want to use a work email if possible. You can get it here: workspace.google.com/intl/en_ca/ It does cost around $7. You could try a personal email, but it doesn't natively connect into Make.com. Here's a help doc to walk you through the process if you want to use a personal email account: www.make.com/en/help/tools/email
Good morning to you bro thank you for everything you are doing well and every think you are giving for free I wish you all the best and your life best reaching from Germany
im in northern ontario! I am looking to start an AI and Automation agency how is makes AI assistant? I want to use make over zapier for cost and chatbase for basic customer service / internal documentation (i have IT service/sys admin background and a business degree) so trying to modernize my city sine its a steel manufacturing and tons of SMBs and theyre all fabrication, construction, etc and haave seen too much 1990s stuff like emailing contracts so ai automation is my barrier to entry but def gonna be an all in one Tech consultant eventually what is ur preferred tech stack? dunno if i even want to dive deep into botpress / voiceflow... smbs dont care, they just want repetitive mundane tasks done and all my service ddays so much lack of knowledge in the real world
Hey great question. I'll break this down: Make.com > Zapier. I don't use Zapier at all other than for Bark.com, because it's not available in Make.com. Zapier costs more, will require MUCH more time to build out solutions when compared to Make.com, will take more maintaining, and has less functionality. The only benefit of Zapier is that it's beginner friendly and easier to learn. Make.com doesn't have a chatbot like Zapier. However, I wouldn't use Zapier just because it has a chatbot. I would use Go High Level, as this would give me much more flexibility to automate. To be honest, I think there's a lot of misconception when it comes to what people think small/medium sized businesses (SMBs) want. From my experience, the vast majority of businesses want to start with pure automation (with some AI automation but not too much), to automate repetitive tasks that they're current doing manually. My automation stack is Go High Level, Make.com, and Next.js (custom code - however, you don't need this). When it comes to my business, I've used Go High Level for 5 years now to automate ~75% of my business, whereas I use Make.com the other ~25%. I recommend Go High Level to all of my clients, who've made the switch and couldn't be happier. My recommendation would be to learn and sell Go High Level and Make.com and Zapier, but primary use the former two. You can find thousands of job listings on Upwork from people looking to hire freelancers for these positions - many of which pay well (I'm speaking from experience here working as a freelancer on this platform). I believe these two platforms are the most applicable to SMBs and probably the easiest for you to standardize your automation service offerings. I'm just releasing my blue prints on how I automated my whole business on Go High Level, it should be done in a week or so. You can just download it here if you sign up for GHL: jonocatliff.com/gohighlevel/sign-up Here's my Make.com blue prints: jonocatliff.com/make/sign-up
Hey there, the link to the blue prints are in the description of this video. You can just enter in $0, and proceed forward to grab the blue prints for free :)
Hello! I just tested this on a brand new free slack account and it works fine for both receiving and sending messages in Slack. You may need to change the slack trigger from 'new event', to either 'watch public channel messages' or 'watch private channel messages'. Alternatively, if you'd like, you can try WhatsApp, text messaging, Facebook Messenger, etc as a direct substitute instead of using Slack
@@jonocatliffgreat scenario you built here! Looking forward to implementing some of it. Does the instant trigger work on the paid version of slack? I’m happy to pay for it, however, only the “watch” option works for me on the free plan and it takes ages to get a reply due to the scheduling.

Slack free doesn´t work with make.
you have to use the pay version of slack to use this?
