For UK small businesses and people working on their own
Start with a free call to check fit. When you are ready to talk it through properly, there is a paid first hour or an audit. After an audit, we build in stages.

Way 1 · Not sure yet
A fit check: we see whether I am the right person for what you have. I give no advice on this call, and you do not have to buy anything.

We listen to how your business really runs and point out where the gaps may be. A short email within 24 hours says what I think I found. It is an email, not a report. If you have one of my pamphlets, this is the hour it describes.
The detailed work is the audit. If you book it within 60 days of the first hour, the first-hour fee comes off. Or go straight to an audit (a written plan after a working session on how your business runs).

We go in stages. First we map how the work really runs, then we build the automation on top of that map.

Where it can go next
Fees, step by step.
If you take the paid first hour, its fee comes off an audit booked within 60 days. The audit fee comes off a build started within 60 days.
Every step in detail
| Step | Price | What it is | What comes off |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free discovery call | Free, 45 minutes | A fit check. I give no advice. | Nothing to pay |
| Audit | £750 | A detailed look at how your business runs, then a written, prioritised plan. | £750 comes off the build if it starts within 60 days |
| Process mapping and build | Typically from £2,000 | We map how the work runs, then build the automation you agreed. | Starts after the audit |
Who it is for
Businesses with about 5 to 50 staff: letting and estate agents, accountants and bookkeepers, solicitors, financial advisers, recruiters, trades, salons, clinics and restaurants.
Start with way 1 or 2. Way 3 follows when you want to build.
One person, one task that eats your time? There is a smaller way in: a starter pack for individuals and solo operators.

After you book
Step 1
Free discovery call: you pick a time on Cal.com. First hour: you pick a time and pay on Cal.com. Audit or process mapping: you fill in a short form.
Step 2
The free discovery call is 45 minutes to see whether there is a fit, with no advice given. In the first hour I listen and point out where the gaps may be. The audit is a detailed look at how the business runs.
Step 3
After the free discovery call there is no commitment, and I will say honestly if it does not make sense. After the first hour you get a short email within 24 hours saying what I think I found, and your first-hour fee comes off an audit booked within 60 days.
Forms
None of these books a call or takes payment. I reply within two working days.
Before an audit
Five short questions about the tools you use, your monthly volumes and the task that eats the most time. Sending it saves your answers for me to read before we talk. It does not book a call, and it is not a free audit.
Open the audit intake formAfter an audit
Seven questions for people who have already had an audit: which process to map, who does each step, and which systems it touches. Sending it saves your answers to prepare a mapping session.

We listen to how your business really runs and point out where the gaps may be. A short email within 24 hours says what I think I found. It is an email, not a report. The detailed work is the audit, and the £120 comes off it if you book within 60 days.
No. It is a fit check and you do not have to buy anything. If it does not make sense for you, I will say so honestly.
Yes. If you are working on your own, the starter packs, with what each includes and what it does not, are on the individual page.
If you take the paid first hour, its fee comes off an audit booked within 60 days. The audit fee comes off a build started within 60 days.
The audit is £750. Builds are typically from £2,000. The first-hour fee comes off an audit only.
It starts from £500: one agent or flow plus a one-page note. It is offered alongside the audit, and it is the smaller step if an audit feels like too much. The first-hour fee does not come off it. It is for businesses. If you are working on your own, see the individual page.
Both, in different places. I build it with you, so a person's time is what you pay for. After that the automation does that one task on its own. It will not run your whole job, and it still needs a person to check it now and then. I teach you how, so it is yours.
