Automation for small business · Victoria, BC

Your busywork, done by morning.

I build small automations that take the repetitive work off your team and run it on their own — so your hours go back into the business, not the spreadsheet.

Fixed price on the first build · doesn't deliver, you don't pay the balance
What runs itself

The work that should run itself

If your team does it the same way every week, it can probably be automated. A few of the usual suspects:

DATA

Entry & reconciliation

Moving numbers between systems, cleaning sheets, matching records.

REPORTS

The same report, on repeat

Weekly and monthly reports generated and sent without you.

SCRAPE

Lists & web data

Prices, listings, filings, leads — collected on a schedule.

INBOX

Triage & follow-ups

Sort, draft replies, and chase the messages that slip.

DOCS

Document handling

Read, sort, summarize, and file PDFs and forms automatically.

FLOW

Custom workflows

A custom tool that handles one specific, high-volume task from start to finish.

Why it matters

You can always make more money.
You can't make more time.

Every hour your team loses to repetitive busywork is gone for good — and you pay for it twice: once in wages, once in the work that hour could have been. Automation buys those hours back and puts them where they actually grow the business.

The offer

The Automation Sprint

Tell me the one task your team does over and over. In about a week I build a working tool that does it for you — then hand over the tool and a plain-English guide.

  • One focused build, scoped and quoted up front
  • Demoed on your real data before you pay the balance
  • You keep the tool and the guide — no lock-in
  • Optional monthly plan to run and expand it

The process

How it works

Tell me the task

A quick call or message. We find the one thing eating the most hours.

I build it

Fixed price, about a week. Built and shown working on your real data.

It runs for you

You get the tool and a guide. Keep it, or put it on a monthly plan.

Who it's for

Small teams, buried in admin

Bookkeeping & accounting Property management Trades & contractors Clinics & practices Local e-commerce Real estate teams

I build the software that does your busywork — not trading tips, betting systems, or financial advice. Just tools that save your team time, at a price you know before I start.

What's the one task you wish would just run itself?

Tell me, and I'll tell you for free whether it's worth automating and what it'd cost.
