Get Jobs Done Faster, With Less Admin Headaches.

If You’re a Tradie, This Probably Sounds Familiar…
Jobs tracked in texts, notebooks, or spreadsheets
Staff asking “what’s next?” every day
Invoices delayed because job info is missing
Missed follow-ups and unhappy customers
Admin done at night instead of on site
You feel busy… but not in control
You don’t have a workload problem — you have a systems problem. We fix that.
Starting at $4,000 and built within 10 days
For much less than a part time admin role, your return on investment will pay off in weeks the moment you discover just how much time you were putting in to the tasks that we can streamline.

Get in touch to book a free 20 min, no obligation phone call to discuss your pain points and what we might be able to do
You Describe It
You tell us what you do or what you want. We can do this in person or over the phone.
We Build It
We will then go away, figure out how to do it and let you know when it's done.
Turn It On
When you are happy with it, we turn it on and monitor it for up to 30 days.
Any issues are fixed as they happen.
(We won't leave you dry).
How it works
Simple.. During our introductory call, you describe what you do or what you are looking for.
We determine if we can assist and if the project is within reasonable and acceptable scope for both parties.
Once we have this information, we will provide a formal quote for acceptance, including any additional components that may be needed (ie: licenses or services).
Once accepted we will set up a meeting to discuss specific details. We can then go away and build it out.
We then finalise the solution, get your approval and turn it on.
We will monitor it for 30 days at no additional cost. Any issues will be rectified. Any out-of-scope changes may incur additional fees.
How we do it..
Depending on your current set up and what your goals are, we can eliminate your pain points by using:
- Microsoft Office 365 Power Platform: Sharepoint, Power Automate, Power Bi and other tools.
- N8N automation tool.
- Take advantage of your current existing tools or services.
- Custom design and develop the workflow into web apps.
