Deduplication is the boring feature that saves revenue.
Two contacts for one buyer split history. Two Trello cards for one deal split ownership. Two CRM rows for one lead split follow-up.
Match on email and phone first. Add a short lookback window for recent creates. Send collisions to a review queue instead of force-merging blindly.
Boring. Reliable. Worth more than another flashy AI step.
Message me if your pipelines create doubles and you want that cleaned up.

Messy books in. Clean books out. 📊
This is a simple before/after of a bank reconciliation (sample figures, no client data). Before: a duplicate payment and a missing entry left the books out by KES 13,650. After: both fixed, and the difference is KES 0.00.
This is the kind of work I do for small businesses every month:
✅ Bank and account reconciliations
✅ Accounts payable and receivable
✅ Invoice and payment processing
✅ Month-end support and financial reporting
This is a great example of how proper bookkeeping makes a real difference! Clean reconciliations lead to more accurate records and better financial decisions. 👏📊
One of my templates flopped. The exact same design later sold every single day.
It's called Mitchy, a website template for professional services firms.
On Framer's marketplace it never ranked. And if you don't rank there, buyers never see you.
Easy to blame the design at that point. Redo the hero, change the colors, try again.
I didn't touch it. I put the same design on Webflow's marketplace instead.
It sold 4-5 a day, every day, for about 2-3 months. Webflow was profitable for us from the first month.
On Framer it still doesn't rank, even today.
That's why we sell on both now. One design, two markets.
If you sell software, have you ever found your buyers somewhere you didn't expect?
Such a good reminder that sometimes it’s about finding the right marketplace, not changing the product! Knowing where your audience is makes all the difference. 👏
💡 If you could automate ONE task in your business, what would it be?
Imagine getting back a few hours every week without hiring another person. 🚀
Maybe it’s:
🤖 Answering customer questions automatically
📊 Collecting leads without manual searching
📧 Sending follow-up emails to potential clients
🧪 Tr westing youebsite to catch bugs before customers do
📋 Organizing repetitive daily tasks
As a Computer Science graduate working with Python, AI automation, and software testing, I love finding ways to make everyday work simpler and more efficient.
I'm curious 👇
What's ONE repetitive task you wish you could stop doing manually?
Tell me in the comments! Maybe there's a smarter way to do it. 👀
