No coding. No tech overwhelm. Just automation magic you can actually use.
Let me guess:
You’ve opened ChatGPT, typed in a prompt like “write a caption,” or maybe even brainstormed some blog ideas… but part of you is wondering—
Can this thing actually do more? Like… real automation-level stuff?
Spoiler alert: Yes. It absolutely can.
And the best part?
You don’t need to know how to code, build complex workflows, or even leave the ChatGPT interface. And a little help from Zapier.
Today I want to pull back the curtain and show you exactly how I created 3 plug-and-play GPTs that now run daily systems in my business—saving me time and giving me that sweet sense of “Omg I’m actually organized.”
If you’ve ever wanted to dip your toes into automation (without diving into the deep end of tech jargon), this is your entry point.
💌 1. A GPT Automation That Sends Emails For Me.
Yes, it really does.
I created a custom GPT that—once trained with my tone, brand voice, and structure—can draft emails and send them using simple GPT actions. From replying to a client inquiry to sending my weekly newsletter, I just type in what I want, and boom—done.
Why It’s Amazing:
→ No more hopping between your inbox and ChatGPT.
→ It’s like having a copywriter and a virtual assistant rolled into one.
→ Emails stay on-brand, on-point, and consistent with my business voice.
This is perfect if email writing gives you decision fatigue or you just need to get it done without overthinking.
Step 1: Just Tell It What You Need (Casual Is Totally Fine)
In this first step, I’m simply typing out my request to ChatGPT like I would to a personal assistant.
No fancy formatting. No overthinking.I let it know I want to send a casual collaboration email to Christel, even mentioning the time frame and that I already have her contact saved.
That’s it—ChatGPT takes it from here and starts setting everything in motion.💡 You don’t need to sound like a robot to talk to ChatGPT. The more natural you are, the better it supports you.
Step 2: Let ChatGPT Do Its Thing
Once I gave the request, ChatGPT took over—searched my contacts via Zapier, confirmed Christel’s email, and even drafted a full message for me to review.
No formatting. No template building. No switching tabs.
It pulled the info, crafted the email, and made sure I had the final say before sending anything out.
It’s like having an assistant that never needs micromanaging. 👌
Step 3: Just Confirm and Go About Your Day
ChatGPT drafted the email, I gave it a quick glance, and with one tap—it was sent.
No typing. No toggling between tools. No overthinking.
Inbox cleared, message delivered, task off my plate.
And just like that, I got to move on with my day. ☕
But here’s the wild part:
You can also ask ChatGPT to search your inbox for a specific email and craft the perfect reply for you. No more digging through threads or second-guessing your tone.
✅ Need to follow up? ChatGPT’s on it.
✅ Forgot to respond earlier? Just say the word.
✅ Want it to match your voice? Already trained.
Your inbox just got way easier to manage—without you doing all the heavy lifting.
📅 2. A GPT Automation That Books and Sends Calendar Invites.
Here’s the thing: I used to dread setting meetings.
The back and forth, the timezone confusion, the calendar chaos? No thank you.
Now, I use a GPT I built to:
- Schedule meetings
- Send calendar invites automatically
- Confirm with a friendly, branded message
All from inside the same chat.
Whether I’m setting up a coaching session, collab call, or reminder for a content planning sprint—it handles it.
Step 1: Just Say the Word—Literally
I needed to set up a collab call, so I told ChatGPT the basics: who it’s with, the date and time, and to send the invite via Google Meet.
That’s it. No switching tabs. No manually setting anything.
It immediately kicked off the sequence—confirming contact info and prepping the calendar booking behind the scenes.
You talk. It schedules.
The way it should be.
Step 2: Confirm and Let ChatGPT Seal the Deal
After I hit confirm, ChatGPT pulled the meeting details together and sent out the invite—location, time, and even the placeholder Google Meet link.
Zero bouncing between apps.
Zero manual calendar inputs.
Zero “ugh, did I forget something?”
It’s like having a virtual assistant who gets it right the first time.
Step 3: Boom—Booked & Sent
Just like that, the meeting’s on the calendar and the invite is sent.
No switching tabs. No digging through emails. No “wait, did I confirm that?”
All I did was give the instruction. ChatGPT (with my custom-built GPT assistant) handled the rest.
Why It’s Life-Changing:
→ It saves time and eliminates human error.
→ You can set the exact language and steps once, and it just works.
→ It keeps you looking polished, professional, and totally in control.
Perfect if you’re juggling multiple hats (because let’s be honest—your brain doesn’t need to remember all the admin stuff).
📚 3. A GPT Automation That Adds Tasks and To-Dos Into My Notion Dashboard
As someone who lives inside Notion, this one was a game-changer.
I created a GPT that integrates with my Notion workspace using GPT actions. Now, anytime I have a new to-do, I just:
- Tell ChatGPT what the task is
- Include the deadline or category
- And it automatically adds it to my Notion task database
No more scribbling in notebooks. No more forgetting what I said I’d do. It’s in Notion, exactly where I need it—every time.
Step 1: Add a Task—Without Opening Notion
I just told ChatGPT to add “create mini automation course” to my to-do list for May 15—and it got right to work. 📝
It pulled up my Notion database, drafted the task details, and got ready to send it off with one simple confirmation.
And yes… it even flagged that I forgot the start date.
Because even your AI assistant knows when your planning needs tightening. 😉
Step 2: Clarify the Details (and Let ChatGPT Handle the Rest)
ChatGPT double-checked my input—because Notion needs a start and end date, not just a deadline.
A quick reply later, it locked in all the details, ready to finalize the task without me ever opening the app.
It’s like having a smart assistant who never drops the ball—even when I forget a field. 🙃
Step 3: Task? Logged and Ready to Go
That’s it! In just a few clicks, my to-do was added straight to Notion—no manual typing, no context switching, no friction.
Now it’s sitting neatly in my dashboard, scheduled and waiting.
Automation doesn’t have to be techy—it just has to work.
Why It’s Brilliant:
→ It bridges creativity and execution.
→ You stop losing momentum to “log this later” energy.
→ You can even have it sort by priority, assign deadlines, and more.
It’s like a project manager that actually listens.
🔧 And Here’s the Best Part: No Coding Needed
These automations aren’t built with complex code or technical setups.
They’re powered by GPT Actions—a feature inside ChatGPT that lets you connect to tools like Gmail, Notion, Google Calendar, and more. This is achieved through OpenAPI schemas and OAuth authentication, which might sound technical, but the setup is straightforward.
Yes, there’s a schema involved—but don’t let that word scare you. It’s as simple as copy-pasting a special link (called a callback URL), and ChatGPT handles the rest. You don’t need to write any code or build workflows from scratch.
If you can follow step-by-step instructions, you can set this up.
🛠️ I’ll walk you through the entire process inside my upcoming mini course—so you don’t have to Google your way through it or wonder if you’re doing it right.
This isn’t about being techy.
It’s about finally using tools that work for you—and I’ll show you exactly how.
💬 Final Thoughts
The future of content, communication, and productivity isn’t reserved for tech geniuses.
It’s already at your fingertips—and it’s more accessible than you think.
So if you’re ready to stop spending hours on the same repetitive tasks and start showing up in your business with more ease and confidence, this is your sign.
✨ Automation isn’t about doing less. It’s about finally having the space to do what matters most.
