For trades firms of one to ten — Derby & the East Midlands
I build the quoting, call-handling and follow-up systems that take the admin off a trades business — so the paperwork stops eating your evenings and no job gets lost because nobody picked up.
Where the time goes
You've been on site since seven. The quote gets done at nine, on a spreadsheet, badly — or it gets done Sunday, three days after they asked.
You can't answer it. They don't leave a message. They ring the next name on the list, and that job was yours.
The invoice went out three weeks ago. Chasing it is nobody's favourite job, so it doesn't get done until it's a problem.
What you get
I don't sell software and I don't sell you a website you didn't ask for. I look at how the work actually moves through your business, then build the two or three things that take the most off your plate.
Typical build — yours will differ
Pick the job, pick the materials, send it. Minutes, not an evening.
Phone rings out, they get a text within thirty seconds. You've still got the job.
The chase happens without you remembering to do it.
Your reputation is your best asset. This compounds it while you sleep.
Built on your own domain, loads fast, works on a phone. Yours to keep.
How it works
Fifteen minutes on the phone. We work out what's actually costing you time — not what I'd like to sell you.
You carry on working. I go away and build the thing, properly, before you've paid a penny.
You use it. If it's not making your week easier, you owe me nothing and we shake hands.
Proof
"I had an issue with my quoting system… I didn't have one! After one conversation with Nick we thrashed out the root cause, and they built me a bespoke quoting tool that has taken all the hassle out of my day to day. I'm able to quote and deliver the information in minutes now, rather than on Excel at the end of the day."
Who you'd be dealing with
I spent my career in the front row. Nobody watches the front row.
It's the position where you do the unglamorous work so somebody else scores. That's more or less the job I do now — I build the boring machinery in the background so you get to do the bit you're actually good at, and get home at a reasonable hour.
I'm one person, not an agency. You get me on the phone, not an account manager. I work with trades businesses because I like people who make things, and because the problems are real and fixable — no strategy decks, no six-week discovery, just the thing built and working.

Tell me what part of the week you dread and I'll tell you straight whether I can fix it. If I can't, I'll say so and you've lost a quarter of an hour.
