I've been fortunate in building a consultancy that's grown pretty quickly almost entirely based on this insight (https://superwork.io). We've helped some companies basically 2x just by dumping their existing SaaS-based processes.

The days of one-size-fits-all SaaS are numbered.... most companies can find massive efficiency gains through smart deployment of tools like Airtable and Zapier with turnkey automations.

There used to be a time this wasn't feasible because the only option was to hire a development team and deal with legacy software - we don't have that problem anymore.

Yeah, we're working through Zapier integration at the moment for our paperwork assistant (https://lexico.io) and I'm pleasantly surprised that there aren't as many established B2B SaaS companies doing the same thing as I thought. Self-serve automation definitely feels like the path ahead.

Still don't quite get Airtable though.


I've been looking for exactly a consultancy like this. Thanks for sharing.

Feel free to contact me directly, I've got some business for you.


"We're world leaders in automation & optimization. We know our shit."

Ha, brave language!


Quite brave. I'd A/B test that with something more benign to see how it's really performing.
