Book a consult 💻 https://chaseai.io I've built over 100 n8n automations, and I kept hitting the same wall: jumping between nodes randomly, copying workflows I didn't understand, constantly Googling errors. Then I noticed a pattern. Every single workflow that actually ships uses the same 10 foundational nodes. These aren't the flashy AI nodes or the advanced integrations—they're the "boring" basics that nobody tells you to master first. But once I stopped chasing shiny objects and actually learned these 10 inside and out, everything changed. Complex agents became simple. My error rate dropped by 90%. Builds that used to take days now take hours. If you're learning n8n right now, you're probably making the same mistake I did: learning nodes in the wrong order. In this video, I break down: The exact 10 nodes that appear in every successful automation Why mastering these first unlocks everything else The specific order to learn them (it matters more than you think) Real examples showing how these nodes combine to build powerful agents Master these 10 first, and you'll skip months of frustration. This is the foundation nobody teaches—but it's what separates beginners from people who actually ship.
