Good afternoon,

I work for a freight forwarding company and am interested in creating a tool that allows me to input information, which would then automatically be sent to various websites to request quotes. I would like to receive the quotes back via email.

I am new to [Make.com](http://Make.com) and believe this might be possible, but my coding skills are limited.

1. Is this type of automation feasible?
2. Can someone assist me in setting this up?

Thank you!

Welcome to the Make community!

While it is certainly possible, I would suggest completing the **Make Academy** and learn ths basics before jumping into building such a complicated scenario. If you need **specific assistance** when you are **building a scenario** it’s easier to help you then. Otherwise, you can also **hire a professional** by posting a request in the #Hire a Pro category.

Here are some useful links and guides you can use to learn more on how to use the Make platform, apps, and app modules. I found these useful when I was learning Make, and hope they might benefit you too —
