Automation services for small business
Someone copies requests from a messenger into a spreadsheet, reminds customers by going down a list, and puts a contract together from the previous file every time. I set things up so that this happens by itself: a request lands in a spreadsheet, a reminder goes out on time, a document is put together from a template.
- One task from $200 3–7 days
- After that from $20/mo
- Record keeping and service integration from $500 5–12 days
- After that from $50/mo
What it gives you
What used to be repeated by hand every day now happens by itself, the same way every time. A request is recorded right away, not whenever someone gets around to it, and a reminder does not depend on whether anyone remembered it. The time that went into moving things from one place to another is left for customers.
What is included
Which of these you need depends on the task: the options are in the price table below.
- Request intake and processing. A request from a website, a bot, or a form is recorded in a spreadsheet right away: there is no need to move it by hand.
- Reminders on schedule: to customers or staff, on the right day and at the right hour.
- Documents from a template: a contract, an invoice, or a proposal is put together from a template with the data filled in, not from the previous file.
- Record keeping from a phone: entries are made from a phone, right where the work happens, and everything is kept in one place.
- Service integration: a spreadsheet, a CRM, 1C (business accounting software used in Russia), a messenger, and taking payments. They pass data to each other by themselves.
- AI where text has to be understood. AI sorts a message written in your own words into fields (date, category, amount), and an ordinary program does the math. That is how the salon’s income and expense tracking bot works.
- Running on schedule: everything runs on a server by itself, at night, on weekends, and during vacations.
What is not included
- A website and a bot, if you don’t have them yet. These are separate services: a full website build and a bot for your task. Everything connects to an existing website and bot.
- Posts and feeds. A self-filling channel and posts that go out to social media are separate too: auto-posting to Telegram and to Instagram and Facebook.
Price and timeline
The price range runs from a simple version to a complex one. I name the exact price after a review, before work starts, and it does not go up without your consent. Timelines are in business days, counted from when I receive the deposit and the materials.
| Service | Price, $ | Timeline, days |
|---|---|---|
| One task: requests to a spreadsheet, reminders, documents from a template | 200–500+ 20–50/mo | 3–7 |
| Record keeping and service integration: entry from a phone, reports, CRM, payment | 500–1,500+ 50–150/mo | 5–12 |
The exact price depends on whether the new work has to be connected to what you already have running. A review commits you to nothing.
Prices for everything else are in the approximate price list.

How the work goes
Review
I look at what you have now and where you’re losing time or customers, and I tell you what can be done about it. You don’t have to decide anything before this conversation.
Plan
One page: what I do, what is not included, and what I need from you. This is also where the scope and the price become clear.
Build
I work in stages and show you the result of each one, not everything at once on delivery day.
Check
Before delivery, I run everything on your real data: prices, scenarios, errors.
Handover
I hand over everything: the code, access, and instructions. Then you choose a format: take it all yourself or leave the maintenance to me.

What people ask about this service
Where do I start if I can’t tell what in my business can be automated?
With a description in your own words, even if you don’t know what it is called. If a person does something and follows the same routine every time, it can usually be handed over to a machine. I’ll tell you whether the task can be solved or not. A review commits you to nothing.
How is one task different from record keeping and service integration?
One task is one action that is now done by hand: requests to a spreadsheet, reminders, a document from a template. Record keeping and service integration is when there are several parts and they work together: entries are made from a phone, and data moves between a spreadsheet, a CRM, and payment. I tell you which option yours is after a review, before work starts.
Can I automate only request intake from my website?
Yes, that is one task, the first line in the price table: a request from a website, a bot, or a form is recorded in a spreadsheet right away. If requests have to get into a CRM or 1C and move on down the chain, then it is service integration.
What is the monthly fee for?
For the server everything runs on and for monitoring it, so that a failure does not go unnoticed. The amount is in the price table on this page.
Will I have to change what my business already uses?
Not necessarily. Connecting the new work to what you already have running (a spreadsheet, a CRM, or a messenger) is part of the task. The price depends on it, so at the review I first look at what you already have.
Need something similar?
Whether it’s a website, a bot, or something that is now done by hand, tell me what’s going on, and I’ll tell you whether it can be solved or not.
