I worked with a client to develop their CRM system, focused on streamlining the quotation process. The platform allows them to send detailed quotes to customers, making it easy to compare simple and advanced product options.

Moovey

I helped develop the Moovey system, a platform designed to support customers throughout their moving journey. It allows users to track their moving progress, access moving lessons with reward-based vouchers, find local services, and connect with a community for discussions. The platform also includes a marketplace where users can sell items they no longer need, making the entire moving process more organized and convenient.

Sunbed Ranker

I developed Sunbed Ranker, a platform that helps holidaymakers compare sunbed, pool, and leisure facilities at hotels worldwide. Unlike typical hotel listings, this site goes beyond simply showing whether a hotel has a pool — it rates and ranks the actual quality of the pool and sunbed experience, helping travelers make more informed booking decisions.

Lead Capture & Nurture Automation
View Gallery
Sample Project Automation

Lead Capture & Nurture - Marketing Automation

How it works: A webhook receives lead data (name, email, phone, interest), validates and scores them based on completeness, then sends a personalized welcome email. High-scoring leads get priority follow-up SMS via Twilio. All leads are saved to Excel for tracking.

How it helps: Captures leads 24/7 without manual effort. Instantly responds to new inquiries (speed-to-lead), scores leads so your sales team focuses on the best ones first, and keeps a running Excel log for reporting.

AI Customer Support Agent

Sample Project Automation

AI Customer Support Agent - Business Assistant

How it works: A chat trigger connects to an AI agent powered by OpenAI with conversation memory. The agent can answer FAQs, look up order status, handle refund requests, and escalate complex issues — all through natural conversation using HTTP request tools to pull real-time data.

How it helps: Provides instant 24/7 customer support without hiring staff. Handles repetitive questions automatically, only escalating truly complex issues to humans — reducing support costs and improving response times.

GHL Speed-to-Lead Automation
View Gallery
Sample Project Automation

GHL-Style Speed-to-Lead & Pipeline Automation

How it works: When a new lead comes in via webhook, it instantly sends welcome SMS + email, then moves the lead through pipeline stages. A timed drip sequence sends follow-ups at Day 1, Day 3, and Day 7. Non-responsive leads get tagged for re-engagement. Every action is logged to Excel.

How it helps: Contacts new leads within seconds (studies show responding in under 5 minutes increases conversion 21x). Automates the entire follow-up sequence so no lead falls through the cracks.

Missed Call Text-Back
View Gallery
Sample Project Automation

GHL #1 - Missed Call Text-Back

How it works: Receives a missed-call webhook, immediately sends a text: "Sorry we missed your call! How can we help?" If no reply in 2 hours, sends a second follow-up. After 24 hours of silence, sends a final message with a booking link. Logs everything to Excel.

How it helps: Recovers lost callers who would otherwise go to a competitor. Over 60% of missed-call text-backs get a response — turning missed calls into booked appointments.

Review & Reputation Management
View Gallery
Sample Project Automation

GHL #2 - Review & Reputation Management

How it works: After a service is completed, a webhook triggers a satisfaction check. Happy customers (rating 4-5) get a Google/Yelp review request link. Unhappy customers get routed to a private feedback form instead. Follow-up reminders go out at Day 2 and Day 5 for those who haven't left a review yet.

How it helps: Builds your online reputation on autopilot. Filters unhappy customers to private channels (preventing bad public reviews) while funneling happy ones to Google — the #1 factor in local search rankings.

Appointment Reminder System
View Gallery
Sample Project Automation

GHL #3 - Appointment Reminder & No-Show Recovery

How it works: Sends reminders at 24 hours and 1 hour before appointments via SMS and email with confirm/reschedule options. If the client no-shows, a recovery sequence kicks in: immediate text, follow-up email next day, and a final rebooking offer with a discount at Day 3.

How it helps: Reduces no-shows by 30-50% through timely reminders. Recovers lost revenue by automatically re-engaging no-shows with rebooking incentives instead of losing them forever.

Database Reactivation Campaign
View Gallery
Sample Project Automation

GHL #4 - Database Reactivation & Win-Back Campaign

How it works: A scheduled trigger runs weekly, pulling contacts who haven't engaged in 90+ days. Sends a "We miss you" email with a special offer, followed by an SMS at Day 3 and a final "last chance" email at Day 7 with an expiring discount code. Tracks opens and re-engagement.

How it helps: Your existing database is your most underused asset. This workflow turns cold leads and past customers into revenue without ad spend — typically generating 5-15% reactivation rates from contacts you already paid to acquire.

Invoice & Payment Follow-Up
View Gallery
Sample Project Automation

GHL #5 - Invoice & Payment Follow-Up

How it works: When an invoice is created (webhook), it sends a professional HTML invoice email + SMS with a pay-now link. If unpaid after 3 days, a friendly reminder goes out. At Day 10, an overdue notice with urgency. Day 14 triggers a final warning. Throughout, the billing team gets alerts on overdue accounts, and all invoices are logged to Excel.

How it helps: Eliminates awkward payment chasing. Businesses typically collect 25-40% faster with automated reminders. The escalating tone (friendly → urgent → final notice) motivates payment without damaging client relationships.
