Look: "automatic" rhymes with "fantastic". What else is left to say? 😏 Actually, plenty, so get ready to learn about the single most important factor in creating a high-performing work environment. ⚡️⚡️ And yeah, there’s some hyperbole in that assessment, but not much. 😎

What’s an automation?

Automations can take many forms, but in FULL FABRIC’s case, it’s about offering workflow automation: a series of steps that use rule-based logic to execute repetitive tasks autonomously and without the need for continuous human supervision. 👷‍♀️ At the macro level, system-wide automation is a process of integrating and optimising everyday business operations to reduce the time and resources required to complete them. 🦅 The production cycle as a whole is shortened, expedited and streamlined.

In turn, this improves personnel workload by liberating staff from dull manual undertakings to higher-level tasks such as strategic planning and decision-making, leveraging their individual talents and insights. Ultimately, response times are quickened, quality output becomes consistent, customer satisfaction rises and revenue grows.

In short: there is everything to gain and nothing to lose by automating your instance!

Here are some examples

➜  An applicant submits an application and a selected group of staff members is automatically notified of the fact.

This is a classic workflow automation. Let’s break it down, shall we?

  • It involves using a custom, reusable email template that’s always ready to go;

  • It’s a reoccurring, menial enterprise;

  • Outperforms manual data processing in immediacy and reliability;

  • Removes human error.

➜  A profile is changed to student::enrolled and a payment plan is automatically created.

This is called being one step ahead!

  • It short-cuts your work;

  • It’s also repetitive;

  • Saves time;

  • Successfully sets goals and ties directly into profitability. 

➜  Upon registering for an event, send registrants an Event Program Booklet.

  • Increases visibility;

  • Gives real-time access to important information;

  • Effortlessly fosters engagement and happiness with recipients;

  • It’s also a frequent action that uses a reusable email template.
