The 2026 Business Automation Audit is a three-page diagnostic you run on your own business in about twenty minutes. It scores the five places revenue quietly leaks out of a service company, tells you which one to fix first, and tells you which ones to leave alone.
Page one, The Automation Trap. Why automating a broken process is worse than leaving it manual. A manual failure is slow and visible, so somebody catches it. An automated failure is silent and runs at volume. This page gives you the rule that decides whether you are ready to automate anything at all.
Page two, The 5-Point Revenue Leakage Test. A scored diagnostic across speed to lead, source-of-truth data, billing and collections, manual handoffs, and reporting latency. Score each out of two. Your total puts you in one of three bands, and each band has a different first move.
Page three, The Tier 1 Action Plan. The fixed order to repair foundations in, and why doing them out of order wastes the spend. Ends with what the done-for-you version costs, if you would rather not build it yourself.
