Most businesses are one automation away from saving 10 hours a week.

Here are 5 workflows I've built that had the biggest impact:

Lead → CRM → AI reply → Slack New lead comes in. Contact created in HubSpot. AI drafts a personalised reply. Sales team notified. All in under 10 seconds.

Shopify order → Supplier → Inventory → QuickBooks Every order automatically emails the supplier, updates stock levels, and logs the invoice. Zero manual steps.

Zapier → n8n migration Rebuilt 12 Zaps in n8n. Client went from $299/month to $6/month. Same workflows, 80% cheaper.

Support ticket → AI triage → Notion → Slack Every inbound ticket classified by AI, routed to the right person, and logged in Notion automatically.

Monthly KPI report → auto-generated Pulls data from Google Sheets every Monday morning, formats the report, and drops it in Slack before the team meeting.

If any of these sound familiar you probably need one.

I built a one-click AI technique that turns moodboards into a production-ready 2x2 campaign grid. It analyses and directs like a creative director would. Built this on @FLORA The required inputs: → 4 visual references → 1 model + outfit It normally takes messy workflows and constant tweaking to get one usable direction. So I built a system that streamlines everything into a clean, one-click output. So I built a system that does. This FLORA technique converts references into a structured 2x2 campaign grid - keeping the same model and outfit, while exploring multiple visual directions that you can pick from. It’s how I move from inspiration → execution instantly.
