Business automation · Waterford, Ireland

A business automation consultant for Irish small businesses.

I am Fionn Murphy, a business automation consultant in Ireland. Business automation projects start from €500. I automate bookings, invoicing and follow-ups for small businesses across Ireland: booking confirmations and reminders, quote and enquiry follow-ups, invoice chasing, data entry between tools, and reporting. Everything is built on Make, Zapier and the software you already pay for. You get a fixed quote after a free 30-minute audit call, and thirty days of fixes after launch. Start with the free automation audit and ROI calculator if you want the numbers first.

The same confirmation email, the same follow-up, the same numbers copied from one tool into another. Every one of those is a job a machine can do, every day, without forgetting.

I build the workflows, hand them over documented, and you own them. No proprietary platform, no monthly fee to me for something that just runs.

Start the free audit Five minutes, with an ROI calculator. Or book a call. No pitch.

Sound familiar?

  • You send the same email several times a day.
  • You chase people for replies and for payment.
  • You copy the same data between two systems.
  • Small jobs eat the whole morning.

None of that needs a person. It needs a workflow that runs on its own.

What gets automated

What a business automation consultant in Ireland actually automates.

Yours will be some mix of them.

  • 01

    Automate bookings

    Confirmation on the spot, a reminder the day before, and a message when someone does not turn up. This is the fastest way to stop no-shows with automated reminders.

  • 02

    Automate follow-ups

    Quotes chased at three days and seven days. Enquiries answered within minutes instead of tomorrow, and logged in whichever system you use. If you have not picked one yet, read the guide to the best CRM for a small business in Ireland.

  • 03

    Automate invoicing

    Invoices raised from the job, then polite reminders before the due date and after it, escalating on a schedule you set and stopping the moment payment lands. See Xero automation for an Irish business for what this looks like in practice.

  • 04

    Data entry between tools

    Bookings into your accounts package, orders into your stock sheet, enquiries into your CRM. Typed once, or not at all.

  • 05

    Reporting

    The numbers you check every Monday, pulled together and sent to you before you sit down.

  • 06

    Review requests

    A request sent after the job is finished, at the moment the customer is happiest, without you remembering to do it.

Your stack, not mine

Built on tools you already use.

Your data stays where it is. I connect the systems you already pay for rather than moving you onto something new.

Common connections

  • Zapier

  • Microsoft 365
  • Xero
  • QuickBooks
  • Stripe
  • Shopify
  • Calendly
  • HubSpot
  • Pipedrive
  • Mailchimp

Using something not on this list? Ask. Most business software can be connected one way or another.

Platforms

Zapier consultant or Make.com consultant?

I build on both, so I have no reason to push you onto one. I pick the platform that suits the job and tell you why before I start.

Make usually wins when a workflow has many steps, branches on a condition, or loops over a list. Its pricing counts operations rather than tasks, so a long multi-step workflow tends to cost less per run. It is the one I reach for on booking, invoicing and follow-up chains.

Zapier usually wins on breadth. It connects more apps than anything else, so if you use a niche Irish or trade-specific tool, Zapier often has it. Its editor is simpler, which matters if your team will edit the workflow after I hand it over.

Either way the price is the same: business automation projects start from €500, and you own the account and the workflows. For the longer comparison, read Zapier vs Make for Irish businesses.

For trades

AI receptionist for trades.

Plumbers, electricians, heating engineers and other trades across Ireland lose work in the same way: the phone rings while you are under a sink or up a ladder, and the caller rings the next name on the list.

An AI receptionist answers that call, or the WhatsApp message, when you cannot. It takes the name, number, address and a short description of the job, offers a slot from your calendar, books it, and drops the details into your phone and your CRM. If it cannot help, it takes a message and texts you straight away.

It is built on tools you already have, your number, your calendar, your CRM, so nothing new to learn and nothing to migrate. Projects start from €500.

Be clear on the limits. It books jobs and takes messages. It does not price a complex job, survey a system or commit you to a quote. Anything it cannot answer comes to you as a message, with the caller told a person will ring back.

How it works

Three steps, then it runs without you.

  • 1

    Audit call Free

    30 minutes. We list the repetitive jobs, how often each one happens, and how long it takes. That list is the quote.

  • 2

    Build

    I build the workflows against your real accounts, test them on real cases, and show you each one working before it goes live.

  • 3

    Handover

    You get a one-page reference: what runs, when it runs, how to switch it off, and who to ring. Thirty days of fixes are included after launch.

You own the workflows. If we stop working together, they keep running.

Price

A fixed number before any work starts.

Projects from €500.

Three to five workflows are typically €1,500 to €3,000.

Exact quote after a free audit call. The price depends on how many workflows you need and how many systems have to talk to each other.

I quote a fixed number before any work starts, and I will tell you on the call if the job is too small to be worth paying for.
