Custom AI Automation · Local & Service Businesses

Put the busywork on autopilot.

I build custom automations that take the repetitive, time-sucking work off your team's plate — slow lead response, missed calls, follow-ups and invoices chasing themselves. Built around your process, running in software you own.

Built by a tradesman, not an agency You own everything — no lock-in Priced on ROI, not hours
The problem

You didn't start your business to chase paperwork.

01

Missed calls = lost customers.

You're busy with a customer; the caller just dials the next business. Every missed call is revenue walking out the door.

02

Quotes & estimates die of silence.

No follow-up, so work you already quoted quietly slips away to whoever answered faster.

03

Admin eats nights & weekends.

Invoices, scheduling, data entry, follow-ups — done by hand, after hours, instead of with your family.

04

Leads go cold.

Hours pass before anyone replies — and the fastest business wins the customer, every time.

What I build

Automations built around your process — not templates.

A few of the ones owners ask for most. Every one is built to fit how you already work, and it runs in software you own.

Missed-Call Text-Back

Never lose a customer to a missed call. The moment you can't pick up, the caller gets an instant text back — and a link to book.

Speed-to-Lead & AI Receptionist

Every new lead called or texted within 60 seconds — plus an AI receptionist that answers questions and books appointments around the clock.

Review & Reputation Engine

After every job or sale, automatically ask happy customers for a Google review — and route unhappy ones to you privately, before they post.

Quote & Invoice Follow-Up

Quotes and invoices that chase themselves — polite, automatic reminders until they're answered or paid. You just collect.

Appointment Reminders & No-Shows

Automatic reminders that cut no-shows — and missed appointments get followed up and re-booked on their own.

Flagship

Company AI Assistant

Ask your business anything — pricing, past jobs, policies — and draft replies, quotes, and paperwork in minutes. A human always approves before anything sends.

Don't see yours?

If it's repetitive, it's automatable. Tell me your single biggest time-sink on the call and I'll tell you straight whether it's worth automating.

How it works

From first call to running on its own.

01 / WORKFLOW AUDIT

We find the leak.

I map your process, find the biggest time and money leak, and hand you an ROI report + roadmap — yours to keep even if we stop here.

02 / BUILD

I build it in your n8n.

The automation gets built in software you own. You see progress along the way — I don't disappear for a month and resurface with a black box.

03 / TEST & QA · 2 WKS

We prove it works.

I run it on your real data for two weeks, fix the edge cases, and make sure it's solid before you ever rely on it with real customers.

04 / HANDOVER + CARE

It's yours.

You get a walkthrough, docs, and full ownership. An optional Care Plan keeps it humming and adds new automations over time.

Yours to own — no lock-in, no games.

Automation should make you money and stay out of your way. Here's the deal:

  • You own everything. It runs in your own n8n — not rented from me.
  • No "access" rent or markup. Your n8n + AI run on your own accounts, billed to you directly — never a monthly fee to me just to keep your automations running.
  • Priced on what it saves you — not on my hours.
  • A human always reviews what the AI does before it touches a customer.
Pricing

Priced on what it saves you — never by the hour.

In the audit we run your numbers together. The build is typically 20–30% of your first-year savings, so it usually pays for itself in about 3 months — and it's pure profit after that.

Live ROI Estimate

Run your own numbers.

$
Estimated annual savings $26,000
Typical build$5,200–7,800
Pays for itself in~3 mo

Rough estimate — we confirm your real numbers on the call. Because the build is a slice of what it saves, the payback window stays short no matter the size.

Simple, outcome-based tiers.

Start with the audit. From there you'll know exactly what something's worth before you commit a dollar to building it.

Proof

Proof I can build this.

No filler, no stock logos. Real things I've designed, built, and shipped.

n8n · Workflow automation

Bid-Invite Triage (n8n)

A 12-node workflow that auto-sorts, dates, and scores incoming requests from a busy inbox — the same triage-and-route pattern that works for any business.

Web · Quote estimator

Build It Brothers

A custom builder site with a working quote estimator, built for a custom-home builder — clean, fast, and conversion-focused.

Data automation

BidRanger — bidranger.com

A public-bid aggregator I built and own: SAM.gov + WYDOT scrapers, auto-classification, and a live dashboard.

Revit · C#

Revit Add-ins

Custom Revit plug-ins (C#) that automate repetitive modeling and drafting — proof I can build real automation deep inside professional software, not just connect apps.

Industry experience

Electrical BIM modeler

My day job is electrical BIM modeling (Revit) for a large electrical contractor — real deadlines, coordination, and software, every day. I'm grounded in how technical work actually gets done, not just how it's pitched.

Your results here

Early-client spots are open — I'm taking on a few founding clients at founding pricing, in exchange for a short testimonial once it's saving you time.

Questions, answered straight.

No jargon, no runaround — exactly what most owners ask before we start.

What does RAWorks do?

I build custom AI automations for local and service businesses — instant lead response, missed-call text-back, automatic follow-ups on quotes and invoices, review requests, appointment reminders, and a company AI assistant that answers questions and drafts replies. Each one is built around how you already work and runs in software you own.

How much does it cost?

It's priced on what it saves you, not on hours. A build is typically 20–30% of the first-year savings it creates, so it usually pays for itself in about three months. In practice: a Workflow Audit is $500 (credited toward your build), a single automation runs $1,500–$3,000, a multi-step system $4,000–$8,000, and an optional Care Plan to keep things running is $250–$750/month. You'll know the exact number before you commit a dollar to building.

Do I really own everything? What if we stop working together?

Yes. Your automations are built in your own n8n, on your own accounts — not rented from me. If we ever part ways, everything keeps running and it's yours to keep. There's no "access" fee to me just to keep your automations alive.

What is n8n, and why does it run on my accounts?

n8n is the automation platform your workflows run on — think of it as the engine that connects your tools and runs the logic. I build inside your own n8n and connect your own AI and app accounts, so you own the whole system and pay those providers directly at cost, with no markup. n8n itself is a paid subscription you own — usually a small monthly cost next to what the automation saves.

How long does a build take?

Most single automations are built and tested within a couple of weeks, then I run about two weeks of QA on your real data to catch edge cases before you rely on it with customers. Larger multi-step systems take longer, and we set the timeline up front.

How do you make sure it's actually worth it?

Every engagement starts with a paid Workflow Audit: I map your process, find your biggest time-and-money leak, and hand you an ROI report and roadmap that's yours to keep even if you stop there. We calculate the savings together with your real numbers, so the price is a slice of proven value — never a guess.

Who is this for?

Local and service businesses — home services (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, cleaning), clinics and dental, salons and spas, law firms, real estate, and agencies. If your team loses time to repetitive admin, missed calls, or slow follow-up, it's a fit.

Do you work remotely, and with my existing tools?

Yes. RAWorks is based in Wyoming and works with clients remotely across the U.S. Automations connect to the tools you already use — your phone or CRM, email, calendar, and invoicing — so you don't have to switch systems.

Will AI talk to my customers without me?

Only as much as you want. A human always reviews what the AI does before it touches a customer on anything sensitive, and you decide where automation acts on its own (like an instant text-back) versus where it drafts something for you to approve first.
