Spreadsheets can also be automated to perform specific functions.

I should have framed the question better. I meant to ask for businesses where all/major operations are being run on spreadsheets.

"they don't want to change": Do you think they are open to use spreadsheet's extensions or just want to stick to plain spreadsheets?

I thought conversion from a newsletter community would be much higher than cold outreach, but that does not seem to be the case.

It's good to see these success stories, but is also important to account for survivor bias before blindly following their rule book.

Maybe someone else can advise as I don't have recent experience. Back then Google assisted us through a representative for a month. But it was mostly generic as they dont understand our business deep enough.

Best way is learning through practical experience by starting with small budget, and increasing slowly with refinements.

Good that it worked relatively easy for you, but it is more of an exception than norm.

In my industry, there is a clear want for a better product but that isn't sufficient for them to switch due to natural resistance to change. Hence significant marketing is needed through trusted channels to remove that fear-of-unknown from their minds.
