In this edition of Workflow Wednesday, we delve into a simplified yet powerful method of automating document generation using Journeys. We demonstrate a scenario where a user interacts with an online calculator (using https://grid.is/), inputs data, and upon submission, receives a tailored document in their inbox. This document uses the input data to create a compelling business case for leveraging Journeys.

We’ll guide you through a step-by-step process of setting up an online calculator using no-code tools, linking it to Journeys, and automating the generation of a document that assimilates the calculated data. We’ll also cover how to convert the document to PDF, review, and send it via email, making the process seamless and efficient. Whether it's a business case, an employment contract, or any other form of document, this automation can significantly streamline your document workflow.

Watch and learn how to:

  1. Set up an interactive calculator on your website.
  2. Automate the generation and delivery of a custom document using Journeys.
  3. Convert, review, and email the document to the recipient.

Explore the integration of 50skills to further refine and manage your document generation process.Get a glimpse of how automation with Journeys can save you time and resources while delivering personalized documents at scale.
