What the phrase means in a small company
It means taking a job that is done the same way every time and having it done without you. There is no need for a project office. The question is which job, and in which order.
An industrial-estate supplier as the example
Crayford has working estates, and the directory's garage listings include an address on the Acorn Industrial Park off Acorn Road. Imagine a small firm on an estate like it that sells to trade customers: a parts supplier, a joiner's workshop, a small fabricator. It runs on paperwork.
The working week looks like this: a request for a quote comes in, someone prices it, the quote goes out, nobody chases it, the job is done, the invoice goes out late, and a payment is overdue by the time anyone notices.
A sensible order to automate them in
1. Quotes and their chasing. Sending the quote promptly and following up the ones that go quiet. A quote nobody chases is usually lost.
2. Booking into the diary. Jobs and deliveries go in without a phone call to confirm.
3. Invoices. Raised when the work is done, not at the end of the month.
4. Chasing late payments. A polite reminder that goes out every time.
5. Copying details between systems. The same address typed into two places, stopped.
6. The weekly report. One summary of what happened.
How Dean Keating does it
His website lists these jobs. The route has four steps: a free call, an audit of the work worth automating, the build and install, then training and support. He starts with the single task that makes the most difference. The agents are installed in the tools you already use. It is not a course, it does not answer the phone and it is not a chatbot product.
What stays with you
Anything with consequences, such as a price you are unsure about or a customer who is upset, should reach a person. The agent handles the routine.
Honest limits
He is based in Horndean, Hampshire, and the work is remote. No price list is published; the cost is given after the free call. He publishes this site, so compare other providers. Related: AI admin automation.
