Workflow & business process automation

Your On-Demand Automations Specialist

You know the manual work that eats your week — copying data between apps, chasing invoices, retyping the same emails. I find it, map it, and automate it using the tools you already run. No new platform to learn. No full-time hire.

I run 6 of my own businesses on this exact system — and build the same for clients.

What I automate

The Repetitive Work, Off Your Plate

A workflow automation expert's job is to spot the tasks a human shouldn't be doing by hand — then wire them to run themselves. These are the ones that pay for themselves fastest.

Lead intake & follow-up

New leads get captured, logged, and answered automatically — and nobody slips through because a follow-up didn't get sent on time.

Invoicing & payment reminders

Invoices go out on schedule and overdue reminders send themselves, so you get paid without chasing it down by hand.

Appointment booking & reminders

Bookings flow straight onto your calendar with confirmations and reminders firing automatically — fewer no-shows, zero back-and-forth.

Email & document routing

Incoming mail and documents get read, sorted, and routed to the right place or person, with action items flagged before they get buried.

Data entry between apps

The copy-paste tax between your CRM, spreadsheets, accounting, and tools disappears — your apps talk to each other so you don't have to retype anything.

Reporting dashboards

The numbers you check manually get pulled, calculated, and delivered on a schedule — a live dashboard instead of a Friday spreadsheet ritual.

Not sure which of these is costing you the most? That's exactly what the $499 assessment answers. See the full services & pricing.

How it works

The Process: Audit, Map, Build, Maintain

No mystery, no lock-in. Here's exactly how a business process automation specialist takes you from "we do this by hand" to "this runs itself."

1. Audit

I look at how your business actually runs and find the repetitive, manual work — what it costs you in hours and what's most worth automating first. This is the $499 assessment.

2. Map

I lay out each workflow step by step, including the tools you already use, so you can see exactly what will be automated and what the payoff is before any build starts.

3. Build

I build the automations — n8n workflows, AI agents, and integrations between your existing apps — and test them against real data until they run clean.

4. Maintain

Software changes and edge cases appear. Optional ongoing support keeps everything running, fixes breaks fast, and adds new automations as you grow.

Why trust me with this

I'm Not Selling Theory. I Run This Daily.

Most "automation experts" have never had to live with what they build. I run six of my own businesses — towing, rentals, a studio, more — on the exact system I'd build for you. The automations have to work, because I'm the one they fail on if they don't.

That's the difference: you get a specialist who's already made every mistake on his own dime, and who builds for the way a real owner works — not the way a sales deck imagines it.

  • Built on tools you already pay for — no rip-and-replace
  • Plain-English explanations, not jargon walls
  • You own everything — it runs on your accounts, not mine
  • Start small, prove the ROI, then expand
  • Remote anywhere by video, or in-person around Athens, GA

What it costs

Start Small, Then Build What Pays Off

Every engagement starts with the assessment. From there you decide how far to go — there's no obligation to build anything.

Common questions

Questions About Automation

What tools do you use for automation?

Mostly n8n (an open-source workflow automation engine), AI agents for the steps that need judgment, and direct integrations between the apps you already run. I pick tools that you can own and keep — not a proprietary platform you'd be locked into renting forever.

Will automation work with my existing software?

Almost always, yes. The whole point is to connect the tools you already use — your CRM, accounting, calendar, email, spreadsheets — so they pass data to each other automatically. If something doesn't integrate cleanly, the assessment surfaces it up front so there are no surprises.

How long does it take to build?

The assessment is a single session. Most first automations are live within one to two weeks of approving the plan; bigger multi-workflow builds run longer. You'll get a clear timeline as part of the mapping step before any work starts.

What happens if an automation breaks?

Automations can break when an app changes or hits an edge case. Everything I build includes a 30-day handover window, and Ongoing Support ($100/mo) exists exactly for this — fast fixes plus continuous improvement. Either way, the system runs on your accounts, so you're never locked out of your own data.
