Automation strategy and ROI
Deciding what to automate, in what order, and with what, is where most of the money is won or lost, long before anyone opens a builder. These posts cover auditing a process honestly, estimating the hours and dollars a build gives back, sequencing a roadmap so the early wins pay for the later ones, and spotting the work that should stay manual. They also cover the buying decisions that come with it: off the shelf against custom, Make against n8n against Zapier against Apps Script, hiring an agency against building in house, and why so many projects stall inside 90 days. Pair them with the ROI calculator if you want numbers instead of a hunch.
