Business Case #1 – Automating Daily Project Summaries with Make.com
The Challenge
A 7-person digital agency was spending unnecessary time each morning preparing internal project updates. One team member manually collected progress from Asana and Google Sheets, then wrote and sent a summary on Slack. This routine consumed 20–30 minutes daily, amounting to over 2.5 hours per week. The process was repetitive, delayed, and error-prone—impacting team focus and alignment.
The Solution
We implemented a Make.com automation that:
Retrieves project updates from Asana at 8:30 AM
Extracts client notes and deadlines from Google Sheets
Generates a clean summary using OpenAI
Sends the output to the team via Slack and email
This no-code scenario runs every weekday with zero human intervention.
