What's broken?

Tick the one that sounds like you.

Pick the problem that sounds like your business

That's what I would do.

  1. Find the one thing you do that nobody else around here does.
  2. Build the look around it: the mark, the colors, the sign on the door.
  3. Put it everywhere a customer touches you, from the site to the cap.

  1. Walk the work with you and find where the same thing gets typed twice.
  2. Fix the handoffs first. Pick the tools second.
  3. Use AI where it earns its keep, and say so when it doesn't.

Choose what fits. Skip what doesn't.

Meet the person behind the work

Twenty-five years running operations — restaurants with full P&L, asset auctions for banks and the FDIC, a warehouse for a large internet sales company, and a sales floor in the boating industry. I have been the person the software was sold to, and the person who had to make it work anyway.
