How we build business automations for a Nelson team.
We scope narrow, ship a working pilot, then harden it into production. The first slice is the highest-leverage workflow for your Nelson business, so value lands before the build is finished. End-to-end automations.

Questions
FAQ
How quickly can we see something running?
Week three for a clickable internal demo against real data. Week six for a slice your team can actually use. We hold ourselves to those numbers because they're what stops a project drifting into "endless discovery".
Is business automations worth it for a smaller Nelson?
Often, yes – and counterintuitively the ROI is sometimes faster than for the big end of town because there's less integration overhead. We'll tell you honestly on the scoping call if it isn't.
Do you have proof this works for Nelson businesses?
Direct case study: Average client recovers 12 hours/week within the first 60 days. Happy to walk you through full numbers on a call.
What tools do you build business automations on?
For business automations we usually reach for n8n, Make, Zapier, Vercel Functions, Cloudflare Workers. We're tool-agnostic at heart – we pick what your Nelson team can actually run after we hand the build over, not what looks good on a vendor sticker.
