I’ve struggled in finding a good solution to run my sales business. I’ve always knew what I wanted to do, but I never knew how. After trying multiple CRM sales tools and creating spreadsheets upon spreadsheet of different kinds of data for my business, I was worse off than I started.
Last October (2019) I had a vision that excel could somehow get me there if I could figure out how to get the different pieces of data to sync up, so I went online to find videos on how to do vlookup in excel. I ended up accidentally watching a series of videos about Coda by Al Chen and I was instantly hooked. This guy is a genius! Coda is how my brain thinks, so once I figure out the ins and outs, I’ll have a working solution for my business.
Since October, in addition to running my business, I’ve spent 100’s of hours “attempting” to reverse engineering other people’s docs so I could figure out how to do what I wanted to do. I’ve even pulled all nighters trying to learn something that should have taken 5 minutes. I don’t know anything about code, I don’t know how to do a pivot table. I just know it will help me. Right now, I know just enough to be frustrated but I’ve made leaps and bounds since I’ve started.
I’m now giving in to ask for help because I need to focus on business and life, so THANK YOU, in advance for all the help.
