Why this helps
Potential opportunities get lost when they surface during unrelated work and are not recorded.
- Create a regular collection point for opportunity research.
- Keep observations and sources together.
- Make later prioritization easier to start.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Autom and Google Drive once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name the opportunity digest.
- 3Tell Notis which opportunity theme to search and to save relevant returned findings, links, and open questions as a dated Google Drive document.
- 4Pick a weekly schedule and choose where run reports go.
- 5Test with one specific opportunity theme.
Questions about this workflow
Does the workflow rank opportunities by market potential?
Only if you provide criteria and the search results support them. Search findings alone do not establish market potential.
Can I change the theme?
Update the plain language instruction to specify the theme you want researched.
