Market Opportunity
Service businesses — consultants, coaches, agencies — need client portals for file sharing, project tracking, and communication. Airtable (database) + Softr (front-end) creates beautiful client portals without code. A workshop teaching this stack solves a real business need.
The Idea
Offer 'Build Your Client Portal' workshop. Using Airtable as the backend database and Softr as the front-end, students build: client login, project dashboard, file sharing, task tracking, and messaging. All in one 3-hour session. Provide template Airtable base and Softr template. Price $69–129.
Key to Success
- The template is 80% of the value — students customize rather than build from scratch
- Show the BUSINESS VALUE — 'charge clients $200/mo more because they get a portal'
- Target specific service industries: consultants, fitness coaches, marketing agencies, law firms
