Smartsheet is like Excel on Steriods with multiple layers

Jake Gustafson

Smartsheet is like a toy box, as there are lots of options. Trading cards, board games, paint by numbers, dot to dot, and more are all available ways to interact. There are multiple ways to look at each toy and there are ways to automatically perform actions based on what you're playing with.

Imagine you and your friends were planning a party and you needed to make sure all the details were perfect. Someone needs to decide the theme, to pick out the directions, the party favors, the cake flavor, the entertainment/craft/activity… So much goes into planning a great party and Smartsheet can help you and your friends ensure none of those details get overlooked!

I would compare smartsheet to Dora. I would explain that smartsheet is like the magical map that knows where we need to go and what obstacles we might encounter to get there. Then we (as Dora) work with the map to get there, and have help from different teams (Boots) to get there. It requires teamwork and time but we can always get the task done.

Smartsheet is like building blocks - there's a lot of different shaped pieces that can fit together to become almost anything imaginable!

All the activities you do during the day are recorded here. Then I can see how much time you enjoy playing, watching coco melon, eating, and working with Dad in the garage. I can make pretty pictures to see what takes up more of your time and if we need to work on spending more time on different activities.

Not knowing the age of the child, I'm keeping it sinple.

Smartsheet is a powerful application that a person can do all sorts of neat things in it, i.e creating dashboards with lots of colors on it.

I love this prompt! I would ask the child what's on his Christmas List - what kid wouldn't want a way to organize their Christmas List? And them I would demonstrate how we could create a grid of his Christmas List. Then, I would also demonstrate that we could create a dashboard to share with Santa and his family that also has pictures.

Smartsheet is like a magical notebook where you can organize all your tasks and projects. Each page is a sheet with rows and columns to list tasks and details. You can group big tasks with smaller ones, use checkboxes to mark things as done, and add colors and symbols to make it fun. Plus, you can share it with friends so everyone knows what to do. It’s a super-organized way to keep track of everything.

Hi Barbie💗 If work was a Mattel movie, Smartsheet could also be known as "Project Manager Barbie", who tracks everything going on across Barbie's Dreamworld and keeps things running smoothly with the help of her dream team. Let's meet the team that helps PM Barbie work her magic behind the scenes 😊

Math Barbie (Sheets)- This barbie loves to count, keeps everyone organized, and tracks everything happening in barbie land in her big book of numbers. She helps all the other barbies keep track of things like how many cookies they baked or how much decorations they'll need for their next dance party

Survey Barbie (Forms)- This barbie spends her days checking in on all the other barbies! She likes to know where her team's help is needed, how the other barbies are feeling, and helps math barbie collect all this information so it can be measured in numbers.

Broadcaster Barbie (Reports)- Broadcaster Barbie takes all the numbers collected by Math Barbie and makes sure that the right barbies get the right information. For example, for the dance party, she tells the bakers they need 80 cupcakes and the beach barbies that they need 50 beachballs.

Creative Barbie (Dashboards)- This barbie knows that the best way for numbers to come to life and make sense to the rest of her barbie friends is with bright colors and fun pictures. Creative barbie loves to take boring information and make something beautiful with pretty pie charts and totally gorgeous graphs, so that all of Barbie Dreamworld can see the amazing work they are doing without having to de-code Math Barbie's big book of numbers!

Magic Barbie (Automations)- Although this barbie doesn't like to be in the spotlight, she makes all of her team's work possible with a wave of her magic wand! Without lifting a finger, Magic barbie makes survey barbie's responses appear in the big book of numbers, keeps broadcaster barbie's reports up to date, and brings creative barbie's dashboards to life.

Smartsheet is a tool that helps me get my chores done as fast as possible so that I can get back to having fun.

Michelle Basson

I'd say:

"Smartsheet is a computer program that helps you to remember everything you need to do and it makes beautiful pictures and line drawings. It helps you organize all your work!"

Estemum Kamal Lithia

Smartsheet is like a big, super cool to-do list on the computer. If you have a project with lots of different tasks, it helps you keep track of who’s doing what and when everything needs to be done. It’s like a magic board where you can see everything at once, so everyone knows what to do and can work together easily✨
