Too many tools
Work spreads across overlapping systems. Switching between them eats the day.

What I work with
Work spreads across overlapping systems. Switching between them eats the day.
Handoffs live in chat threads, spreadsheets, and someone's memory. Patched by hand.
Edge cases and working rules live with a couple of people. When they're out, the process stops.
Finance, sales, and operational data each in their own system. No single picture across them.
Impressive in the deck. Doesn't stick in practice.
What I do
Websites, booking, CRM, data, distribution. One coherent layer instead of five disconnected ones.
Funnels, acquisition, conversion, marketing systems. 15 years in digital, marketing, and data, before AI became useful.
Internal tools, automation, knowledge workflows. Fewer tasks held together by someone's memory.
AI draws on company documents, policies, and vocabulary. Built into daily processes, with no separate system alongside.
How I think
15 years in digital, marketing, and operations. AI came as a new layer, once it became worth using.
AI becomes useful when it knows a specific business. Before that, it just speaks in generalities.
Business knowledge is documents, policies, vocabulary, and real examples of how decisions got made. As long as it lives only in people's heads, AI has nothing to work with.
Without that, AI produces polished text that only looks like work. It clutters chats, reports, and instructions, and roams through handoffs.
AI amplifies people who already know the work. For those who don't, it just makes weak work look acceptable.
An AI tool that sticks is one the team uses daily, like email and calendar. Everything else lives only in the pitch deck.
Where I'm most useful
Strongest case studies. My work goes wider.
Direct vs OTA sales, staff turnover, guest experience fragmenting across shifts, revenue management flying blind.
Sales pipeline and CRM split across three systems, customer handoff to service after the sale, property data in Excel, decisions by gut feel.
The owner is stuck in operations. Decisions made by gut feel. Processes live only in people's heads. Digital tools cobbled together from random services and Excel.
Process
Specific results are under NDA. I'll walk you through them on a call.
Talk
Open to the right in-house, fractional, or project-based conversations.
