The Nomad Ops Book the audit

AI automation consultant and fractional COO

Operations that run without you.

I build AI systems and automations for growing businesses in any industry, and I work beside founders as their fractional COO. The systems take the routine work off your desk, and the decisions stay with you.

7:00 AM

6:30 PM. Everything else ran without you.

Operations that run without you.

  1. 7:00 to 8:50 AM. Eleven things land on the owner: a missed call, a new inquiry, a customer asking for a timeline, three late invoices, a request for the weekly numbers, a new hire with no plan, a supplier waiting on a sign-off, and three real decisions.
  2. Replies. A reply desk drafts every answer from the price sheet and past proposals. A person reads the draft and sends it.
  3. Missed calls. A receptionist that never misses a call texts back from a template the owner approved, and adds the callback to someone's list.
  4. Invoices. A collections clerk queues polite reminders on a schedule. The final notice waits for the owner's OK.
  5. Weekly numbers. An analyst builds the one-page report from the books, the sales tracker and the project board. The ops lead reviews it.
  6. New hire. An onboarding coordinator runs the checklist, and every step has an owner.
  7. Follow-ups. A chief of staff reads calendars, inboxes and project files at 6:15 each morning and hands over one ordered list: ready to send, waiting on you, waiting on others.
  8. Who owns what. The COO half of the job: deciding what gets automated, who owns each process, and which calls stay with the owner. By 6:30 PM, three decisions are left, and each one belongs to the owner.

What would I build first for you?

Pick your kind of business and the job that eats most of your week.

Your business
Your worst bottleneck

The first system I would build

Off your week
Who owns it
Where I have built it

The audit finds your real first system.

45 minutes with me. We walk through one ordinary week of your business: every request, handoff, report and invoice. I write down each place the work waited on you, in the order I would fix them, and I name the first system to build and who should own it. You keep the page, whether or not we work together.

Results from four industries and my own desk.

Real numbers from operations I have run or built for. I keep client names private. Read the stories behind them.

  5. My own desk

    6:15 AM

    An AI system I built in Claude Code reads my calendars, inboxes and project files each morning and hands me one ordered list: what is ready to send and who is waiting.

    • It drafts. I decide and send.
