Automation for busy UK small businesses

Automate the boring bits.
Keep the fun bits.

I build simple, reliable automations for trades, e-commerce, professional services and local businesses. Less time on admin, more time running the actual business.

01 · How it works

Three steps. No faff.

A quick call to see if we're a good fit. A clear, fixed-price proposal. Then I build it and keep it running. That's it.

1

A free 15-minute call.

Tell me what's eating your week. I'll ask a few questions, and I'll be straight with you — if automation isn't the right answer, I'll say so. No pitch, no pressure.

Free · No commitment
2

A fixed-price proposal.

If it's a good fit, I'll dig into the detail, map out the process and send you a clear proposal — one price, no surprises. You say yes or no. Simple.

Within 3 working days
3

Built, tested, running.

Up and running in about two weeks. I'll tune it through the first month, then stay quietly in the background keeping it healthy.

05 · About

One person. Straight answers.

You'll always know who you're talking to.

Flowcentral is just me — a solo operator based in the Staffordshire, with a background in product and operations. I've spent years inside businesses watching the same admin problems repeat themselves: quotes going out late, invoices not chased, bookings lost in someone's inbox.

I started Flowcentral to fix exactly that — for small businesses that don't have an IT team, a consultant, or a spare afternoon to figure it out themselves. Practical automations, plain English, and a single person who picks up the phone.

Plain English
No "workflows" or "orchestration". I say what it does.
Yours, not mine
Every automation I build, you own. Leave any time.
Solo on purpose
Just me. You'll always know who you're dealing with.
UK-built
Hosted in the UK. VAT-registered. Proper invoices.
06 · FAQ

Things people ask me.

Short answers. Tap one to expand.

Do I need to change the tools I already use?

Almost never. I work with Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent, Gmail, Outlook, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Google Calendar, Square, and most booking tools. If I can't connect it, I'll say so in the first call.

What happens if an automation breaks?

All plans include monitoring. If something stops — an API changes, a password expires — I usually know before you do. Fixing it is part of the monthly fee.

I'm not technical at all. Is that a problem?

Genuinely the opposite — my favourite clients are the ones who've never opened a spreadsheet formula.

Is there a contract?

Monthly rolling. One month's notice to pause or stop. No exit fees, no "we keep your data" nonsense.

Will it feel robotic to my customers?

No — this is the bit I care about most. Every message is written in your tone of voice and tweaked until it sounds like you wrote it on a Tuesday morning.

How long does a typical project take?

Most automations are live within two weeks of the proposal being signed off. More complex setups can take three to four weeks, but I'll always give you a realistic timeline upfront.

Fancy a chat? First one's free.
