What does the busywork cost you?
Most owners have stopped counting the hours their team spends on data entry, invoicing, and reporting. Tick the tasks yours does by hand, set what an hour costs, and get the annual number.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Where do the default hours come from?
They reflect the typical workloads we measure in small-business operations audits — six hours a week on data entry, four on invoicing, five on reporting, and so on. Treat them as starting points; your audit replaces them with measured numbers.
What should I enter for hourly cost?
Use the loaded cost, not the wage: salary plus taxes, benefits, and overhead — usually 1.25–1.4× the hourly wage. $35 an hour is a reasonable default for a mixed admin and operations team.
Can all of these tasks really be automated?
The rule-based core of each one, yes — that's what the hours represent. Data entry, invoice generation, scheduling confirmations, report refreshes, and follow-up sequences are the standard first builds. Judgment calls stay with your team.
Where we go from here
Want the hours back?
A typical build automates two or three of these tasks at once, goes live in 30 days, and breaks even around week 10. Start with a free call — we map your workflows and rank the wins by payback.
