We built PubLoft (marketing for startups) to $300,000/year using only Airtable, Zapier, Typeform, and Weebly.
ā
The biggest advice I can give anyone building a business on Airtable: start small, but separate every variable into its own table. For example, we started by describing the assignment ātypeā as simple text, until we decided to create a table for Deliverables to organize our offerings and pass pricing information through Zapier.
ā
Since July 2018, PubLoftās freelance content strategists, writers, and editors have used a Weebly portal with embedded Typeforms + Airtables to create, claim, and submit assignments in/out of our system.

Our Zapier automation glues everything together, from initial client requests to finalized pieces sent for approval.
