“We should really automate this” has been on your list for a year. The idea isn't the problem — it's the bandwidth to build it. That's the whole job. I find the one thing worth automating in your business, then build it.

None of this needs an enterprise system. It needs someone to sit down and build the small thing that makes it stop.
No AI strategy deck, no roadmap slides — a working automation running inside your own tools.
We spend 45 minutes on how your week actually goes. I go back through it, find the repetitive work quietly eating your time, and match the biggest one to a tool or a small custom build — sanity-checked against a business your size, not an enterprise.
Then, if you want it, I build it. Most owners see the first automation live in a couple of weeks. I don’t pitch AI — I ship the boring plumbing that makes the busywork stop.
One well-chosen automation usually pays for itself in a month or two of recovered time — and it keeps paying every week after that.
An illustrative example — not a specific client.
“Every service call, the office manager copied the address, notes, and parts list out of email into the scheduler and the invoice by hand.”
→ One intake form that fills both automatically. ~5 hrs/week back. No new subscription.
