Syncing Airtable & Google Contacts
This automation tutorial will help you keep your Google Contacts up to date by syncing it with your customer or client information in Airtable. With this, the contacts that are in your phone will always reflect the most up to date information that's stored in your Airtable database!
You may not always have your Airtable data open in front of you, but with Google Contacts, you can grab your phone and call your clients without a second thought. Keeping the most current information synced is the key, and this automation does exactly that!
One of the most popular use cases for Airtable is to build a CRM to run your business. Practically all CRMs have a table that stores CONTACT data - names, emails, phone numbers... most business requires transactions between humans (I give you this, you give me that). However, your Airtable CRM isn't always the easiest thing to access. Perhaps your on the road and you want to call a client - or maybe your watching TV and you remember you need to send an email to a customer. Do you really want to open up your Airtable database in the Airtable phone app, just to find a phone number or email address?
A great time saver is to have this data synced with your phone already! As an Android user, this is a simple automation to connect Airtable to my Google Contacts. Now, any time information about my clients is added or updated in Airtable, my Google Contacts automatically update with the most current data. I walk through this automation in this week's tutorial video - step by step - to help you build the exact same automation for your own business! 👇
