Episode Synopsis
Why you should listenLearn the specific signals that indicate a client is ready for automation support, including the "cusp of scale" indicators Jared uses to identify businesses where systems work can deliver immediate ROI.Get the scoping questions Jared asks before every automation project, from "Is this always going to be assigned to this person?" to the scale and maintenance questions that prevent tech debt before it starts.Discover how Jared positions automation services as strategic partnership rather than task execution, allowing him to charge for advice and push back on client ideas rather than just building what they ask for.Scaling your business but drowning in systems that don't talk to each other and growing pains that get louder by the week? In this episode, I talk with Jared Weiss from Matix Flows, who spent over a decade in the startup trenches before launching his own automation consultancy. We dig into why so many business owners end up with tech debt they don't even realize they're building, and what it takes to create systems that actually support growth instead of creating constant firefighting.
