Why You Should Build a User Portal

A smart user portal automates onboarding, account management, and payments—so you don’t have to do it manually.

✅ Streamline Operations – Let users manage their accounts without admin intervention.
✅ Enable Self-Serve Workflows – Automate applications, payments, and profile updates.
✅ Increase Scalability – Manage hundreds or thousands of users effortlessly.
✅ No-Code Tools Make It Simple – Use Glide to set everything up—without custom development.

But building a user portal the right way is key to avoiding manual inefficiencies and broken processes.

💡 That’s exactly what this course teaches you—so you can build a scalable user system that works.

Is there a refund policy if I don’t find the courses useful?

No, we do not offer refunds since this is a digital product. We've tried offering refunds in the past, but it wasn’t sustainable. If you want to get a sense of the teaching style, I recommend checking out my YouTube channel for technical tutorials. That will give you an idea of how the courses are structured before you commit.
