I'll be honest — my last three posts flopped.
Took me a minute to see why. I'd been writing hot takes when I should've been writing what actually helps.
Here's a small automation I shipped last week that none of my "big" posts will beat for value:
A client kept losing meeting notes. Calls in Google Meet, transcripts in their inbox, action items nowhere. Standard SMB chaos.
The fix:
Google Meet transcript → n8n webhook → GPT extracts action items + owner → posts to their Slack channel + appends to a Notion database.
Now every meeting ends with a clean action list, automatically assigned. They stopped using the word "follow-up" in calls.
Not glamorous. Not contrarian. Just useful.
What's the smallest automation that made the biggest difference in YOUR work? Drop it below — I'm collecting ideas for clients. 👇

AI Voice Agent for Real Estate Lead Booking
An AI-powered phone receptionist built for real estate agencies that answers inbound calls, qualifies leads in real time, and books showings directly to Google Calendar — all within the call itself, with no manual follow-up required.
The problem: Real estate agencies routinely lose leads to missed calls — after-hours inquiries, calls during showings, or overflow during busy periods. A slow callback often means the lead has already moved on to a competitor.
What it does:
Answers every call instantly, 24/7
Naturally qualifies the caller (buy/sell intent, area of interest, showing vs. agent call)
Collects contact details and preferred timing conversationally
Checks real-time calendar availability before booking
Prevents double-bookings and duplicate entries automatically
Confirms the appointment out loud before ending the call
Built with: Retell AI (conversational voice layer), n8n (workflow automation and business logic), Google Calendar API (scheduling)
Available for: Custom builds for real estate agencies, brokerages, or property management companies looking to stop losing leads to missed calls
Beautiful workflow by the way. My nicheeee
A client shouldn’t have to learn Webflow just to publish their next case study.
On a recent build, I spent a lot of time on the CMS: setting up reusable blocks and the logic that lets the team update content without rebuilding pages.
The tricky part is deciding how much control to give them. Too little, and every update becomes a request. Too much, and they’re suddenly responsible for the layout.
I want them to open the CMS, know what to do, and get on with their day. There’s a fair amount of work behind making that feel simple.
The CMS thinking here is spot on: the best handoff is the one that gives a client confidence without exposing all the complexity underneath.
This week I'm working on 👇
- 42 content assets for a long term client
- Adding projects to our portfolio
- Connecting with freelancers and agencies for referral projects (and to become friends 🤭)
- Finishing up a launch content project
- Doing a trial video editing project
- Working on my second business with my team + hopefully getting my Business Number so I can do more bureaucracy 🫠
These are some important taks among the hundreds I usually end up doing during the week! I've found that working from Spain again has helped my productivity so much 💪
Great. Keep it up for success.
