In my case, it was meetings. I couldn't find any automation for it. After I quit to start building my products, I think it's research. I'm considering some automation for idea generation or research storage and consumption but not sure yet.

@robertomorais But now you know an automation tool that can help you with your meetings,. Check out this tool and detailed review here: https://medium.com/@software_guy...

@robertomorais Research is a really time consuming part. Some articles are perfectly linked so I jump from one to another.

@sefasarikaya Yeah, it's easy to enter the rabbit hole and stay there.

Sales calls and meetings.. not sure how automation can be done.. However there are other areas where I use automation and definitely saves quality time.

@satish_kumar_veluri That's good, what are some good tools for automation that you use in your daily life.
Sefa Sarıkaya
@satish_kumar_veluri Maybe a questionary would help you. You can ask questions as a form instead of making a discovery call.

@sefasarikaya Depends upon your product, target audience and their geographical location.

Earlier for me it was travel and meetings.. Now , just meetings and calls Bit relieved , as automation can not achieve full solution for this .. However there are other areas where I use automation and definitely saves quality time and energy

In my case, Subject research, new content search

@tiru A subject tip: You can check the reviews of your competitor's product and create a content about solving their negative points.

@colin_johnson5 That phase needs to be focused and it is okay to consume time there

Определенно, встречи в реальной жизни требуют слишком много эмоций и энергии.

@shushant_lakhyani I suppose it is not your area of expertize. You might postpone it until you can hire a pro.

Sales pitching, calling, cold mailing and running campaigns. Although building a product/platform is cool (I love to build products) but without customers inflow it can die fast. I find no true automation for getting customers (relationship building is unfortunately not a matter of automation yet) and that takes up a lots of time and effort for my startup.

@swapratim_roy Have you tried finding a CMO co-founder?

Doing work that I don't know how to do or don't like doing. It could be anything, like cleaning or repairing. I'd rather spend more time at work and pay a professional for the job than have to figure out how to fix a broken faucet myself. Therefore, for me, handyman are almost sacred people who should receive decent pay for their work.
Sefa Sarıkaya
@pixie2 A work that you don't like but you have to do... Sounds terrible

Finding a solution to a particular problem is very exciting for me, but at the same time it takes a lot of energy and time.
Sefa Sarıkaya
@danone At least you can find a particular problem, that's good.

well I have no interest in gaming and sports I like to read books articles and giving online quiz on platforms like Telenor today answer it also gives you a job opportunity if you pass the test and increase your general knowledge.
Sefa Sarıkaya
@xdio_gawer Increasing the general knowledge is always interesting for me
