Build a business that works for you.
Every week we take one real business apart. How it makes money, what it costs, what broke. Then we hand you the playbook so you can copy it.
BIZPLAYBOOKS
The One-Person Back Office
One founder. No admin hire. AI does the bookings, the billing and the follow-ups.
How it really works
Who does the work, what customers pay, and what’s left over at the end.
What it really cost
The money, the mistakes and the stuff that still doesn’t work. Straight from owners who did it.
What to do next
A free playbook with every episode. The steps, a template, and the number that tells you it worked.
I’m Kevin. Here’s the deal.
I wrote my first line of code on a Commodore 64. (Google it, kids.) Since then I’ve spent 20 years in tech and business consulting, from Deloitte to small owner-run shops. I’m a founder too, so I’ve made the mistakes myself. Here’s what I’ve learned: the businesses that win usually aren’t smarter. They just use tech better and fix the boring stuff faster. Every week I show you exactly how. Give me 60 seconds.
Copy what already works.
Decide what to automate first, and what to leave alone
You know you should automate something. You just don’t know what. Score every repeat task on time, cost and risk, and keep the ones that pay for themselves.
Run the business for two weeks without you
Take two weeks off. Here’s how to make sure nothing breaks.
Stop being your team’s help desk
Your team stops asking you everything. You get your day back.
Find the customers who cost you money
Some customers lose you money. Here’s how to find them and what to do about it.
Get decisions made without the founder in the room
Write down what your team can decide without you. Then get out of the way.
One business. One decision. Every week.
Every playbook works the same way.
Two minutes to read. Pays off for months.
The problem
What’s broken, who it hurts, and what it costs you if you do nothing.
The numbers
Where you are, where you want to be, and how far apart they are.
The steps
What to do, who does it, and by when.
The template
The spreadsheet, prompt or checklist. Free. Copy it.
One playbook a week. Free.
Every Monday: one playbook, one number, and one question to ask your team. Takes five minutes.
