This Is What's Costing You Money Right Now

If you're in trades, logistics, or services, you already know.

Quoting Takes Hours, Customers Don't Wait

Every quote means pulling data from three systems, copying it into a spreadsheet, and emailing a PDF. Meanwhile, the customer has already called your competitor. That's $60K+ in lost deals every year.

Warm Leads Go Cold While You're Busy

You know you should follow up within an hour. In reality, leads sit in your inbox for days. Last month, how many went cold because nobody picked up the phone? At $5K-$15K per deal, the cost adds up fast.

Month-End Invoicing Eats Two Full Days

Cross-referencing job sheets, timesheets, and purchase orders. Errors creep in. Payments are delayed. Your bookkeeper is two weeks behind. You're financing your clients' businesses for free.

You Think You Know Which Jobs Are Profitable

Data in Xero, data in your CRM, data in spreadsheets, but no single view of how the business is actually performing. You're guessing based on gut feel and a spreadsheet from last year.

The Math That Makes This Simple

Our systems pay for themselves. If they don't, we rebuild it free.

Your Investment vs Your Return

Most clients save $26,000-$50,000 per year per workflow in admin costs alone, before counting revenue growth. Your investment: $3,500-$5,000 once. That's a 5-10x return in year one. EasyFreight saw 215% revenue growth within 90 days.

Performance Guarantee

If your first AI Navigator workflow doesn't save you at least 10 hours per week within 60 days, the N16 practice will rebuild it at no charge. N16 can offer this guarantee because the practice has not had a refund request across its workflow engagements to date.

The AI-Powered Workflows

An AI-powered workflow is a system that runs a repeatable business process end-to-end, pulling the data it needs, making decisions, and delivering the result without anyone having to remember to do it. For NZ small businesses, four archetypes cover 80% of the wasted-time problem: quoting, lead follow-up, invoicing, and scheduling. These are delivered by N16's AI Navigator practice, with Growin's Igor Shadoff as Technical Director. Every engagement starts with the workflow costing the most hours right now, then stacks additional automation as your capacity grows.
