Once you use Smartsheet and you understand what it can do, it's amazing what the brain does. All of a sudden, you're coming up with ideas that you never had before because you were paralyzed by the fact that you didn't have a system. It's not just that you're developing these systems that are very transformational and drive productivity, but that you as an individual now open yourself up to think totally different. We're dreaming bigger than we ever have.
