Hi, I’m Joe
If you don’t know me, I’m Joe Bunting. I’m not a tech guy or a programmer. I’m just a writer who has been writing books and teaching since 2010.
But when I started using some basic automations in my business so that I could spend more time writing and less time copy/pasting and other tedious tasks, I found that I was starting to become an addict.
I became addicted to automations!
Since then I’ve built 100s of automations to handle everything from getting rid of duplicates in a spreadsheet to staying in touch with my clients every week (even if I forget!) to creating my own complete agency management system. I’ve created a huge automaton army, and it grows all the time, helping make my and my team’s life easier even as we accomplish more.
And now, I want to share what I’m learning with you, so that you can create an automaton army of your own.
What could you accomplish with your automaton army?

But Wait, What’s an Automaton
An automaton (pronounced ah-TOM-ah-tawn) was the original robot, first built in the 18th century by watchmakers.
They mesmerized people because they looked so lifelike that they convinced people they were real, but the truth was that they were just lovingly designed systems.
That’s the thing about systems, though. If you put enough work into them, they stop being just a tool and start to become something else… a thing. Not human, of course, but not just another tool.
That’s what this community is for, to help you build lovingly designed systems that can change your work, your life, and even the world.
To help you assemble your own automaton army, filled with things that help you focus on what matters most.
This Is Just the Start for This Community
The goal of this community is that any time you find yourself doing a repetitive, tedious task that you start asking yourself the question, “Could an automation do this?” It probably can!
And soon, you’ll be on your way to creating your own automaton army. What problems will you solve today?
To building the freedom to do more of what you love!
