AI Consultancy for Small Businesses
A lot of businesses spend hours on tasks that could run automatically. I help small businesses set up AI tools and workflow automation using platforms like Zapier and n8n, so the repetitive work happens without you touching it.
Signs your business is ready for automation
Most businesses don't know they have them until someone maps it out. That's where this starts.
Workflows first. AI second.
My background is in software and workflow. I spent four years in that discipline at Ricoh UK Products Limited, and that shapes how I approach every project. Before any tool gets chosen, I need to understand how your business actually works.
A lot of what people think they need AI for can be solved with a well-built automation. Simpler, cheaper, and more reliable. I will always recommend that first if it fits.
AI agents are one of the biggest buzzwords right now, but they are not the right answer for every business. Most small businesses get a better return from straightforward workflows set up properly. My job is to work out which is right for you.
AI Automation Services for Small Businesses
I map out the repetitive tasks in your business and build automations that handle them. Quotes, follow-ups, data entry, notifications. All handled.
Zapier connects the tools you already use. I set it up, test it, and make sure it actually does what it should.
n8n is a more flexible, self-hosted alternative to Zapier. Better for complex workflows and businesses that want more control over their data.
From AI-drafted emails to intelligent document processing, I help you plug AI into your existing processes without disrupting how your team works.
Before building anything, I spend time understanding how your business actually runs. That is where the best automation ideas come from.
Once it is live, I am still here. If something breaks or you want to add a new workflow, just get in touch.
The right tool depends on your workflow, your budget, and how much control you want over the setup. I will recommend the best approach after understanding how your business works.
How AI Workflow Automation Works
We talk through how your business works and where the time is being lost.
I document the workflows worth automating. You sign off before anything gets built.
I build the automations using Zapier, n8n, or AI tools, depending on what fits.
I walk you through everything so you understand what is running and why.
If you want me to manage it long term, I can. If you want to run it yourself, I will make sure you can.
One consultant. Direct access, no intermediaries.
I've been building for UK businesses for over 10 years. When you work with me on automation, you deal with me directly. I scope it, I build it, I explain it. There is no project manager sitting between you and the work.
Most of the businesses I work with don't have a technical team. They have a problem they want solved and a few hours a week they want back. That is a good starting point.
AI Consultancy FAQs
What is AI consultancy?
It is about working out where AI and automation can actually make a difference in your business, then building it. Not a strategy document. Real tools that save you time.
Do I need a tech team?
No. I handle the setup. You describe the problem and I figure out the solution.
What tools do you use?
Mainly Zapier, n8n, and a range of AI platforms. The right tool depends on your workflow, your budget, and how much control you want.
How long does it take?
A simple workflow can be live in a day or two. More complex builds take longer. I will give you a clear timeframe after our first call.
What if something stops working?
Get in touch and I will fix it.
Is this for small businesses?
Yes. Most businesses I work with do not have an IT team. They just want things to work.
