THE PROCESS

From operational friction to an actionable plan.

The Business Efficiency Audit is a defined process with a fixed fee, a fixed timeline, and a findings guarantee. Here is exactly what happens at each step.

1

Apply

Tell us about your business, team, software, and biggest operational challenges. Three minutes.

The application asks enough to understand your business and confirm the audit is the right starting point. Qualified businesses book a 20-minute fit call immediately on the next screen. On the fit call we confirm scope, answer questions, and schedule discovery.

2

Complete discovery

We walk through how work moves through the business, where employees spend their time, and where customers experience delays.

Discovery is a 60- to 90-minute working session, supported by a detailed pre-audit questionnaire you complete beforehand. With your permission we also gather input from the employees closest to the workflows under review. Nothing is disrupted: no software installs, no system access required.

3

We analyze the opportunities

We evaluate your processes, software, handoffs, bottlenecks, risks, and missed revenue.

Every recurring workflow gets documented and examined for repetitive manual steps, re-keyed data, follow-up gaps, single points of failure, and software you are paying for but not fully using.

4

We calculate the impact

We estimate the time, labor, capacity, and potential revenue tied to each recommendation.

Each opportunity is scored on potential impact, implementation cost, complexity, risk, and expected payback, then ranked. You see the math behind every estimate, held conservative.

5

You receive the roadmap

A prioritized playbook with tools, implementation steps, budget ranges, and a 90-day plan.

Delivery happens within seven business days after discovery and closes with a 60-minute findings presentation where we walk through the priorities and answer questions. The complete written playbook is yours to keep.

6

You decide what happens next

Implement it internally, use another provider, or ask us to execute the plan.

There is no requirement to hire SMB Automation after the audit. If you do want help executing, the $1,500 fee is credited toward any implementation project of $7,500 or more started within 30 days.

The findings guarantee

If the audit does not identify at least $15,000 in annualized time or revenue opportunity, we refund the full fee and you keep the roadmap.
