Why Your Workflows Don't Work

Most automation “experts” are making businesses worse.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth they won’t tell you:

They’re automating chaos instead of eliminating it first.

The Real Problem

I see this play out daily:

• Automating broken email sequences that annoy customers
• Building chatbots that create more confusion than clarity
• Scaling inefficient processes at lightning speed
• Designing workflows for tasks that shouldn’t exist in the first place

The result? Automated inefficiency—at 10x speed.

The Elimination First Rule

Before I automate anything, I ask three questions:

1. Does this task actually need to exist?
2. What would happen if we stopped doing it entirely?
3. Are we solving a real problem, or just making busy work faster?

The magic happens when you eliminate first—then automate what’s left.

A Client Example

I worked with a client whose operations consumed 35 hours every week.

Instead of throwing n8n at everything, we cut 20 hours of pointless tasks.

Then we automated the 15 hours of actual value work.

Result: 35 hours → 8 hours per week.

No bloated workflows. No chaos at scale. Just clarity, then automation.

The Real Difference

The “experts” would have automated all 35 hours and called it success.

But that would have turned a hamster wheel into a faster hamster wheel.

Real automation liberates you from work.

Fake automation just accelerates inefficiency.

Your business should serve you, not enslave you.
