Any chance you’ll do a recording of the session? Would love one of our staff to be on this, but its 4am here, so that makes it a little tricky :slight_smile:

Looking forward to it! Will it be recorded? Because the time zone makes it a bit difficult to be present. @Martin_Vilches and @maria

Wow Martin and Maria thanks for doing this! This is the first Webinar I’ve watched, I didn’t realize there were so many. It’s great to see serious use cases of Coda with lots of best practices. I learned some good tips like the gmail draft creation for template-based emails is great idea, the wordcloud, very cool.

Martin if you don’t mind, when did you start putting all this together? One thing I love about Coda is you can start small with your top priorities and then start molding the tools you build around your business processes bit by bit.

Hi Ed, thank you for your comments. I started my first doc in 2020. I did one doc for everything I needed (CRM, Projects, Service Tickets, etc). After almost 2 years of using it, and after learning so much from the community, I decided to build the second version in 4 different docs connected to each other using CrossDoc. It took me about 2 weeks to build it (spending several hours a day).

I agree with you, the nice thing about coda is that you can start small solving a key part of what you need, and then start from there!

Thanks for the info. Coda changed a lot in that period, we only started using it in 2021 but I believe many of the things, like cross-doc, that make your solution possible were probably new or did not exist yet at the time when you started.

I was lucky enough to read some of that advice here before building out our documents, so we followed that multiple doc approach from the beginning and so far it is working out well. We have CRM, HR, Management, Contracts, Financials, Project-specific docs, and some other utilities and smaller docs. Haven’t gotten to the point yet where they look as pretty as yours, but in terms of pure process we have a nice lean machine going.
