NEW BOOK!!

Do you use Google Sheets but would like to learn how to use it better but don’t have the time? This is the book for you!!

In just about an hour, you’ll learn everything you need to confidently start using one of the most versatile tools for organising and analysing data.

Written with simplicity and clarity in mind, each chapter guides you step-by-step through essential features, building your skills and confidence as you go.

This takes you from the very basics like formatting your data and freezing rows to advanced areas like using pivot tables, creating drop-down menus, creating filter views, and the new Sheets Tables.

I wrote this book especially for those short on time but who still want to learn all the essential features to use Sheets with confidence.

Reflection – One of the things that set me off on my Google Workspace journey was learning spreadsheet functions. If you’re new to them, they are things like =SUM(A1:A100), which would add figures in column A.

I’m always surprised that even though so many people use spreadsheets every day in their work that they only know the basics, and learning things like functions would make their lives so much easier.

It was certainly also the springboard for making a number massive improvements in my department and then it led to me learning Google Apps Script, which is the easy-to-learn code that sits behind the Workspace apps. That basically changed everything and over the years I’ve been amazed what you can do with it.

So, my advice for this year? Learn spreadsheets, spreadsheet functions and / or Google Apps Script! You won’t regret it! 😎
