[WORKSPACE INVADERS šŸ‘¾] Meet the man brewing up a coffee-themed t-shirt business with Typeform

Hey folks!

Happy hump day šŸŖ

Ā 

If you're feeling the lull this week then fear not, here's a little caffeine-injectedĀ treat for you to get your juices going againā€¦


Pressing Start on "Workspace Invaders"

Ā 

We're kicking off a new series here on the Community, which we're calling "Workspace Invaders". It's a space where you ā€“ the Typeform user ā€“ can show off what you're doing with the tool, highlight your cool use cases, talk about your achievements and share the great things your business is doing.

Ā 

Turning a love of coffee (and humour)Ā into a side hustle


We wanted to kick this series off in style and who better to feature than community cognoscentiĀ @john.desboroughĀ . Des has been imparting his wisdom and sharing experiences with us since day one on the community. Last month he was kind enough to come talk at our Meaningful event and share how he turned his passion for coffee into a business using nothing but Typeform, Google Sheets, and Google Document Studio.

Ā 

In this video, we'll share Des' workshop where he talks about his solution. He has some golden insights and tips about:

  • Using Typeform to validate his idea.
  • Setting up an order form to take payments via Stripe.
  • Using logic, calculator and variables to handle multiple orders.
  • Using Google Sheets with Google Document Studio to automatically generate and send PDF order reports from the typeform orders.
  • Sharing typeforms via Facebook.

Perhaps more importantly, if you want to get your hands on one of Des' amazing tees, go check out the typeform here.

This is brilliant stuff. Iā€™m going to need popcorn and a good armchair to read/watch it all calmly. Hats off to @john.desboroughĀ and @JamesĀ for working on this.Ā
