In this special video tutorial on sheet improvement, I take an existing Google Sheet and make it better. After all, we’re Better Sheets, right? For this tutorial, I’ll work on Doc’s Virtual Mall, which is taken from Elliot’s Virtual Mall. It has fun things like an elevator, which you use to enter the mall. You can go to the different levels: Launch, Books, Mentors, No-Code, Newsletters, and Makers. Some fun stuff: In the Books level, you can even claim a spot for your own store if you’re selling your own books!

Not only are you going to learn how to create your own Virtual Mall, but you are also going to learn the different things you can use them for.

Sheet Stories / Video Notes + ADDED: Email Notifications

Add video notes through Custom menu, complete with video thumbnails. To make it even better, I’ll show you how you can set up email notifications by using Google Apps Script. Recieve email notifications so you never miss out on what’s happening in your sheet.

In this tutorial, I’ll show you how you can delete videos that are in your Google Sheet for more than 24 hours. This is something similar to Instagram Stories, where you only share a video that’s viewable for only 24 hours. That way, you can keep your sheet updated with only the most recent data that you want to share.
