Your business shouldn't depend on someone copy-pasting data at 11pm.

I don't build static solutions. For 7+ years I've built custom PHP/Laravel POS, CRM and e-commerce systems — now with automation built in, so orders, leads, invoices and reports move on their own while you focus on growing.

Sound familiar?

Most businesses don't have a software problem.
They have a manual work problem.

"Someone types it into Excel"

Orders, stock and payments get copied by hand between systems. It's slow, and every copy is a chance for a mistake.

"We replied… eventually"

Leads sit in an inbox for hours or days. By the time someone answers, the customer has already bought from a competitor.

"I'll know at month end"

You find out how the business is doing weeks too late, because the reports still have to be put together by someone.

A new website or a new app won't fix this on its own. A system that does the work itself will.

The difference

Same business. Two kinds of solutions.

Most developers deliver something that sits there. I deliver something that runs. Flip the switch.

Static solution Automated solution
A lead fills your contact form

The email lands in an inbox. Someone sees it tomorrow — maybe. No follow-up if they don't reply.

Added to the CRM in seconds → instant WhatsApp & email reply → you get an alert → automatic follow-ups on day 3 and day 7.

Reply in 1–2 days Reply in 30 seconds
A customer places an order

Staff copies it into a spreadsheet, adjusts stock by hand, makes the invoice and calls the courier.

Stock updates itself → invoice is generated and emailed → courier is booked → the customer gets tracking on WhatsApp.

~15 min per order 0 min per order
You want to know how business is going

Someone exports data at month end, builds a report in Excel, and sends it over a week later.

A sales, stock and cash summary arrives every morning at 9am. If something looks wrong, you get an alert right away.

Monthly, after the fact Daily, plus real-time alerts

Proof

Before and after: real problems, automated

Retail · POS

A multi-store POS that closes the day by itself

Before

Checkout queues at peak hours. Stock counted by hand every night. The owner waited until morning for a sales report someone typed in Excel.

What I automated

  1. Barcode scan
  2. Live stock sync across stores
  3. Low-stock alerts
  4. End-of-day report to owner's WhatsApp

“Checkout speed improved by 40%, and the team loved the admin panel.”— A. Khan, Retail Lead
E-commerce · Shopify

Legacy store → Shopify, with orders that process themselves

Before

An old osCommerce store, orders copied into spreadsheets, invoices made by hand, and nobody knew today's sales until the weekend.

What I automated

  1. Zero-downtime migration
  2. Order → inventory → invoice flow
  3. Customer confirmation messages
  4. Daily sales dashboard

“Migration to Shopify without downtime. Sales dashboards are 🔥.”— S. Malik, E-com Manager
B2B · CRM + n8n

A CRM where no lead slips through the cracks

Before

Leads arrived by email, WhatsApp and web forms. Some got a reply in days, some never. Follow-ups depended on someone remembering.

What I automated

  1. All channels → one pipeline
  2. Instant auto-reply
  3. Day-3 & day-7 follow-ups
  4. Weekly pipeline report

Why I work this way

I got tired of building software that people still had to babysit.

For 7+ years I've built POS systems, CRMs and online stores in PHP, Laravel, osCommerce, WordPress and Shopify.

Again and again I saw the same thing. The system went live, and the team still copied data between screens, chased payments and put reports together by hand. The software was finished, but the manual work was still there.

So now every system I build starts with one question: "What should happen here without anyone touching it?" I use n8n, APIs and AI-assisted logic to answer that question, and the result is a business that keeps running when you step away from your desk.

4

I already have a website / system. Do I need a new one?

Usually not. I connect to what you already have (Shopify, WordPress, your POS, Google Sheets) and automate around it. I only rebuild when the old system is what's blocking you.

How long does it take?

A single workflow takes 3–7 days. A full system usually takes 2–4 weeks, and larger projects are delivered in phases.

What if an automation breaks?

Every workflow I build has error alerts and logging. If something fails, we both find out right away, not weeks later.

NDA and privacy?

NDA-friendly. Private repos, limited access and proper management of secrets.

Who owns the code?

You do, along with all assets, once the work is paid for. You also get handover documentation.
