Create your first scenario

3min

The best way to understand Make is to try it yourself! This guide will walk you through creating your first Make scenario—an automated workflow that will send notifications to a sales team. By the end, you'll understand Make's core concepts and be ready to build your own scenarios.

What you'll build

You'll create a notification system that bridges the gap between marketing and sales teams. Imagine this business challenge: your marketing team adds new prospects to a spreadsheet, and your sales team needs immediate notifications.

Your scenario will:

  • Monitor a Google Sheet for new prospect entries by the marketing team.
  • Send Slack notifications to the sales team when new prospects are added.
