In Automate Your Busywork: Do Less, Achieve More, and Save Your Brain for the Big Stuff, entrepreneur and Jotform CEO Aytekin Tank delivers an essential and insightful roadmap to help you make the most of your most precious asset: time. You'll discover what's possible when you offload repetitive tasks, why automation has democratized innovation, and how you can use cheap--or even completely free--"no-code" automation tools to revolutionize your ability to focus on what really matters in business and in life.

In the book, you'll discover how and why the future of business is "no-code", and how you can use an automation first mindset to unlock your productivity potential. You'll learn how to move from being preoccupied with busywork to having less work, and finally to having the time you need to accomplish your most important work. The author also explains how to use delegation and automation to achieve "timefulness", or the state of having enough time to get critical tasks done.

Automate Your Busywork demonstrates why--with the innovations offered by "no-code" solutions--you no longer need an entire IT department, or even a single software engineer, to automate your most repetitive tasks. You can collect data, automate payments, and create simple contracts with the click of a button.

An incisive and must-read blueprint to rededicating your time to the tasks and jobs that matter most to your life and business, Automate Your Busywork is the time management guide that managers, executives, board members, entrepreneurs, founders, and other business leaders have been waiting for.
