I automated a course creator's onboarding in N8N
The workflow: → Trigger: Student submits Google Form → Step 1: Name + email saved to Google Sheets automatically → Step 2: Welcome email with course link sent via Gmail instantly
What I learned: I originally had the Gmail node first — before saving to Sheets. That was wrong. If the email sends but the save fails, you lose the client record forever. Always save data first, then send. Also: I'm only 16 and this is Scenario 6 for me — this is the first one I actually built live in N8N and got all 3 nodes showing green checkmarks. That felt really good
Tools used: N8N + Google Forms + Google Sheets + Gmail — all free to start
