A business can save ten hours a week on a process that does nothing for revenue. It can also fix one bottleneck and unlock growth it has been leaving on the table for years. We look for both, because owners need both.
01
We walk the week task by task. The test for a candidate is simple. Does it happen more than once. Does it follow a pattern. Does it move information from one place to another. Three yes answers and it belongs on the list.
What you get: every repetitive task in the business, with the hours attached to it.
02
Two questions do most of the work here. If your leads doubled tomorrow, what would break first. What process is capping your revenue right now.
What you get: the constraint. Remove it and capacity rises without headcount rising with it.
Most businesses believe their processes are documented. What usually exists is a folder written two years ago that no longer matches what anyone actually does. The Knowledge Check sorts every process into three states.
Where documentation is missing, we write it. You receive a proper standard operating procedure whether or not you ever automate that process. It is yours to keep either way.
Documented
Written, current, matches practice.
Out of date
Written once, drifted since.
In somebody's head
Never written. It works because one person knows it, and it leaves when they do.
This is the step most providers skip. It is also the step that decides whether the build works.
Every process on the list gets three marks out of ten. Those three marks make the Opportunity Score. Rank the list by that score and the order of work stops being a matter of opinion.
Return
How much time or money does fixing this give back.
Certainty
How clearly is the process defined, and how confident are we that it will work.
Simplicity
How straightforward is it to build.
The Build Sketch
We then draw the top process in front of you. Trigger, steps, decisions, output. You see the whole system before anybody builds it, and you approve the shape before you approve the cost.
Free, and it takes about four minutes. No meeting required to get it.
