Hey everyone, I’ve spent a lot of time learning the "how-to" side of things. I’m comfortable with no-code/low-code tools, building AI agents and chatbots, and handling CRM management. The problem is, every time I try to actually start, I realize I don't have a real offer or a specific niche. I’m just looking at the market aimlessly and I’m not sure where to aim. For those of you who have landed clients: 1. How did you actually pick your ICP or niche? (Did you just pick one and go, or did you have a strategy?) 2. How did you turn "I can build automations" into a specific service that businesses actually wanted to buy? I’m tired of just building Automations for fun. I want to start selling. Any advice?

Hey everyone, Anes here. Over the last few months, I’ve been diving deep into automation and building workflows that save founders hours of manual work every week. Thought I’d share some examples of what’s possible with tools like N8N, Make, and Zapier: - File + data management (Google Drive, Dropbox, Notion syncs) - Lead scraping & enrichment (Apollo, LinkedIn, etc.) - AI-powered email personalization & follow-ups - Client onboarding automations (contracts, invoices, Slack/Telegram/CRM sync) - Invoice + payment automations (Stripe, PayPal, Wise integrations) - Appointment booking workflows (Calendly/Cal.com + CRM + reminders) - Dead lead reactivation & re-engagement campaigns - Automated backups & data safety flows - Custom API and webhook integrations - API + webhook connections (custom integrations when tools don’t “talk” to each other) And more... The cool part is how these can scale: - A small automation might be something like “new Apollo lead → neatly added into Google Sheets.” - A medium one could be “new client signs contract → auto-added to CRM + onboarding emails + Slack notifications.” - A large system might handle an entire sales pipeline from scraping → enrichment → outreach → reporting. I’ve noticed that once a business implements even one of these, it changes the way they operate freeing up mental space and time for higher-value work. Not sure what can be automated in your business? Just send a Dm and I can take a quick look at your process and suggest what’s realistic? — Anes

I built an automation that pulls leads from Apollo.io, scrapes their website data, and creates personalized icebreakers using that info. Now, I’m stuck on filtering duplicates I want the automation to skip leads it has alreadyexisting in my CRM and only use new ones, while everything else runs smoothly. Does anyone have a reliable way to set up this filter so it keeps working without reusing existing leads? EDIT :This filter is not for checking existing leads its part of the normal automation to check if the leads info have a website url and email.
