The session with Vince was amazing. We had initially scheduled 30 min, but he ended up staying on the call for 1 hour and 15 min showing me how to optimize my current system using Airtable. Would strongly recommend to anyone who needs help with systems building, Airtable and automation!

Had an amazing chat with Felix about no code tools and swipe files. He’s helpful, responsive and a joy to speak with.
I learned a ton from him sharing how he organizes & curates all the tools he uses and information he reads. Seriously, Felix can pull up useful resources for almost any question you ask. He’s that good! Thanks Felix for sharing your knowledge.
