What would happen if I doubled your demand?

A short story about a real business scaling problem in February. 📕

The key question when scaling isn’t just 'how do I get more sales', it’s 'what happens when I do'? If I had 2x more activity in my business, would I be able to handle it?

For a well-established commercial services business we audited last month, the answer was no. The bottleneck? Manual, outdated processes eating up time and headspace.

- Wages calculated manually - HR data copied from timesheets into Excel.

- Invoices built from scratch - pulling numbers from multiple sources.

- Client data spread across notepads and Excel sheets - instead of a real CRM.

This isn’t a small business. Yet, these inefficiencies translated to dozens of wasted hours every month - time that could have been spent on maximum money-making activities (MMMA).

We’re now in the process of automating all of it - eliminating these bottlenecks so their team can focus on growth instead of admin.

Why pay someone to fix this?

✅ Time saved - what’s your hourly rate? Is doing this task the best use of it?
✅ Errors removed - manual work = mistakes.
✅ Less stress - it’s not hard, but learning it yourself isn’t fun.
✅ More revenue - your time belongs in MMMA, not admin.
✅ Done right - do you want a Rolls-Royce jet engine powering your business or a lawnmower?

Most businesses don’t fail because they can’t sell. They fail because they can’t handle what they sell. Fix it before it breaks.
