Why did you choose that tool?
Because everyone seems to be using it?
Because someone recommended it?
Or because it actually solves a problem in the way you work?
I think this is something that gets overlooked when businesses start growing.
You add a new tool because things are getting harder to manage, but six months later, you have five different tools and somehow you’re still doing everything manually. 😅
A tool should help with capacity control, making it easier to handle more without everything becoming dependent on you.
And it needs maintenance too.
Because the way you work today may not be the way you need to work six months from now.
So sometimes the question isn’t:
“What tool should we use?”
It’s:
“What are we actually trying to make easier?”
That answer usually tells you a lot about the tool you need.

Built a lead-scraping automation in n8n.
For this one, I focused on local restaurants in New York and automated the process of collecting their business information from Google Maps.
The workflow pulls things like:
Restaurant name
Website
Business category
Instead of manually searching Google Maps, opening businesses one by one, and copying their details into a spreadsheet, the workflow handles the repetitive part automatically and saves the leads directly into Google Sheets.
This is just one use case. The same setup can be adapted for different locations, industries, and lead-generation needs.
