How to Set Up Your Superbuy Spreadsheet Workflow in 15 Minutes
6 min read · Updated June 2026
A workflow is more than a spreadsheet. It is the complete system you use from the moment you find an item to the moment it arrives at your door. This guide shows you how to build that system in exactly 15 minutes.
The 4-Stage Workflow
Every successful workflow follows four stages: Discovery, Ordering, Tracking, and Review. Your spreadsheet sits at the center of stages 2 and 3, but the system works best when all four stages are connected.
- Discovery: Log items before you buy
- Ordering: Record confirmations and agent details
- Tracking: Monitor status and shipping
- Review: Rate the experience and archive
