AI is moving fast. And if you’re a marketer, business owner, or creative who feels like you’re being left behind... you’re not alone.
This week, I’m sharing a full beginner’s walkthrough of n8n - an automation platform that feels like unlocking cheat codes for the internet.
If you’ve never touched n8n before, this is for you.
I recorded a 30-minute, step-by-step video that shows my second-ever n8n project, an AI-powered email assistant that:
Checks Gmail every minute for new messages
Uses ChatGPT to write natural, friendly replies
Creates draft responses so you stay in control
Sends you a notification email when a draft is ready
Introduces a fix for recursion problems (AI replying to itself!)
But more importantly for beginners, it also shows you:
How to navigate the n8n interface (nodes, canvas, input/output view)
What “pinning” data means and how to test individual steps
How to connect nodes, handle errors, and debug with real examples
What expressions are, and how to dynamically pull email info
Why using OpenAI system prompts is crucial for consistent results
And how to think like a builder, learning from trial and error
🎥 Watch the full tutorial now!
This is the perfect project to follow if you're just getting started and want to build something real and useful, today.
Why I’m sharing this:
Skillet AI is about hands-on learning, not hype. Every tutorial we release is built for real people who want to work smarter, not just watch flashy demos.
We focus on:
- Explaining the “why” behind every step so you can reuse it anywhere
- Sharing real code, real prompts, and real workflows
- Letting you learn from the wins and the mistakes — no magic tricks
Here’s what makes us different:
- Transparency: I don’t edit out the hard parts - you’ll learn where things break and how to fix them.
- Clarity: I explain the why, not just the clicks. You’ll actually understand each step, and be able to build your own.
- Consistency: Every week, a new workflow for marketing, ops, content, or customer support.
This isn’t a no-code dream. It’s a low-code power-up.
And it’s just the beginning.
🧰 More Tools Coming
Future projects include:
1. Sales follow-ups powered by AI
2. Social content pipelines
3. Newsletter writing from live feeds
