Business Automation & AI for SMBs

Stop Wasting Time on Manual Business Processes. Automate Them Instead.

I'm Alex Hunt—I spent 6 years building automation systems at Amazon, and now I help small businesses do the same. I'll audit your processes, build custom automations, and train your team personally. One expert, full attention, hands-on implementation.

Automation & Integration

Stop manually copying data between your tools. I connect your CRM to email, forms to databases, e-commerce to accounting—so information flows automatically. No more double entry, no more manual handoffs.

Strategy & Roadmapping

I'll map your current processes, identify what's costing you the most time, and build a prioritized plan. Includes platform migration support if you're moving from spreadsheets to Airtable, QuickBooks Desktop to cloud, or switching CRMs.

AI Implementation

Practical AI for real business tasks: chatbots for customer FAQs, auto-draft email responses, summarize meeting notes, extract data from documents. I implement tools like ChatGPT and Claude that integrate with your existing workflows—real time savings, not science fiction.

Honest Recommendations

If automation isn't the right solution, I'll tell you. I'd rather give honest advice than sell you something you don't need.

FAQ

Common questions answered

Everything you need to know about working together.

How quickly can you start?

Typically within 1-2 weeks of our discovery call. I limit my active projects to ensure quality, so if I'm fully booked, I'll let you know upfront and add you to my waitlist.

Do I need to know anything technical?

Nope! I handle all the technical setup and explain everything in plain English. You just need to know your business processes—I'll figure out how to automate them.

When should I use AI vs. automation?

Automation is best for predictable, rule-based tasks (copy this data here, send this email when that happens). AI is better for handling variation (summarizing unique documents, drafting custom responses, answering unpredictable questions). Most projects use both: automation handles the workflow, AI handles the thinking parts. I'll recommend the right tool for each task.

What if my tools aren't compatible?

Most modern business tools have APIs or integration options. During our discovery call, I'll assess your tech stack and let you know what's possible. In rare cases where direct integration isn't feasible, I'll suggest workarounds or alternative tools.

How much time will I need to invest?

Expect 3-5 hours total: initial call (30-60 min), process walkthrough (1-2 hours), testing/feedback (1 hour), and training (1 hour). I do the heavy lifting—you just provide context and approval.

What happens after the project is done?

You get full documentation, training, and 30 days of support. I build on reliable platforms (Zapier, Make, Airtable) with 99.9%+ uptime, so breakage is rare. After the support window, you can manage everything yourself—you own it all. Or engage me for ongoing optimization via a monthly retainer.

Do you work with my industry?

I work with service businesses, agencies, e-commerce, consultants, and professional services. If you have repetitive tasks and use modern software tools, I can probably help. Book a discovery call and we'll find out.

Can you guarantee ROI?

I can't guarantee specific results, but I can estimate time savings and cost reduction during our audit. Most clients see ROI within 60-90 days through reduced labor hours and fewer errors. If I don't think automation will help you, I'll say so upfront.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. For projects over $5,000, I offer 50% upfront and 50% on completion. For smaller projects, payment is due before I start work. All pricing is discussed and agreed upon before any work begins.

What if I only need advice, not implementation?

That's what Expert Sessions are for. Book a 90-minute strategy session ($400) to get guidance on tool selection, vendor proposals, or automation roadmapping—no implementation required. Think of it as renting my brain for specific decisions.

Are you available for ongoing support?

Absolutely. After your initial project, you can engage me on a monthly retainer for continuous optimization, new automations, or ad-hoc support. We'll discuss retainer options once I understand your needs.

What makes you different from hiring a full-time employee?

You get expert-level automation skills without the $80K+ salary, benefits, or management overhead. I deliver specific projects fast, then move on—no long-term commitment. Perfect for SMBs who need expertise but not a full-time headcount.

No sales pitch. Just a genuine conversation about your business.
