+## Step 0: Setup
+
+If you have not already done so, please edit the file `.taguette_gdocs` in this
+directory. You must enter ever variable marked with "CHANGME." You only need to
+do this once.
+
+In order to not commit your changes into git, you can run this command:
+
+```
+git update-index --assume-unchanged .taguette_gdocs
+```
+
+I also create a directory called `taguette_backups` like:
+
+```
+mkdir db_backups
+```
+
+## Step 1: Backing things up
+
+Do this every time before you run the script:
+
+```
+sudo systemctl stop taguette
+BACKUP_FILE="taguette-snapshot-$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S).sqlite3"
+sudo cp /var/lib/taguette/taguette.sqlite3 "taguette_backups/$BACKUP_FILE"
+cp "taguette_backups/$BACKUP_FILE" ./taguette-working.sqlite3
+```
+
+The first line shuts down Taguette. The second line just creates the backup
+file name. The third and fourt lines will create a new backup file and copy the
+backup file into the `./taguette-working.sqlite3`.
+
+### Step 2a: Import from Google Sheets into the database
+
+If everything is setup well, you should just need to run:
+
+```
+python3 taguette-update_tags_from_sheet.py
+```
+
+Check for errors! If you don't see any, you will need to copy the database back
+like:
+
+```
+sudo cp ./taguette-working.sqlite3 /var/lib/taguette/taguette.sqlite3
+```
+
+### Step 2b: Exporting from the database
+
+Exporting tags should be as easy as:
+
+```
+python3 taguette-export_tags_to_csv.py > exported_tags.tsv
+```
+
+This will create a new file called `exported_tags.tsv` which you can manually
+move into the spreadsheet.
+
+## Step 3: Restarting Taguette
+
+Once everything looks good, go ahead and restart Taguette like:
+
+```
+sudo systemctl start taguette
+```
+
+You can check it with `systemctl status taguette` but keep in mind it takes
+some time startup.
