The Zapier Power Automator

A RevOps lead, marketing ops specialist, or operations manager who has become their company's automation architect without the title. They've connected 15–30 apps through Zapier and built workflows that the entire company depends on but nobody else understands. They started with simple two-step Zaps and now build multi-step workflows with filters, paths, formatters, and webhooks. They are the person who gets called when "something stopped working" — which means a Zap failed and nobody noticed until the damage was done.

Aha

A teammate asked how they managed build multi-step automations that handle edge cases without breaking.”

The Zapier Non-Technical Automator

An operations coordinator, marketing manager, or executive assistant who discovered Zapier and spent an afternoon automating a task that had been eating 45 minutes of their week. That experience was formative. They now have 12 Zaps running, three of which they fully understand, one of which they're afraid to touch, and one that they know has been broken for two weeks but the fix intimidates them. They are not a developer. They are the closest thing to one in their department.

Aha

Not a single dramatic moment — more like a Tuesday at 3pm when they realized they hadn't thought about error messages that tell them a Zap failed but not what to do about it in two weeks.”

The Make Power Automator

An operations lead, automation specialist, or technical non-developer who moved to Make (formerly Integromat) after hitting the ceiling on Zapier. They know what they wanted to build and Zapier's linear trigger-action model couldn't do it: conditional branches, iterators, error handlers, multi-route flows. Make could. They learned Make. They have built things in Make that non-technical people would describe as software and technical people would describe as creative. They exist in the middle of the developer-to-non-developer spectrum and they've built a practice there.

Aha

A client needs a system: when a new deal is created in HubSpot above a certain value, create a proje.”

The Make Integration Architect

An automation specialist, operations engineer, or technical ops manager who builds complex workflows in Make because Zapier wasn't enough. They connect 10–30 tools with branching logic, iterators, aggregators, error handlers, and data transformations. They build automations that look like flowcharts, not if-then rules. They've learned Make's visual interface deeply — routers, filters, webhooks, custom HTTP modules. They are the person who automates what everyone else does manually, and they take quiet pride in systems that run for months without intervention.

Aha

A teammate asked how they managed build multi-step automations with branching logic that handles different cases (approval/rejection, success/failure).”

The Kajabi Course Creator

A consultant, coach, or subject-matter expert who has turned their expertise into an online course business on Kajabi. They teach everything from business strategy to photography to fitness. They chose Kajabi because they didn't want to connect Teachable + ConvertKit + Stripe + WordPress + Zapier just to sell a course. They build landing pages, host video lessons, manage email sequences, process payments, and track student progress — all in one platform. They are a teacher who became a business owner, and the business runs on Kajabi.

Aha

A teammate asked how they managed create and deliver online courses with video, text, quizzes, and downloadable resources.”
