# Building A New Box

> Workflow automation and systems integration consulting for small businesses.

Michael Paric is a software engineer and systems architect with 15+ years of experience helping privately-owned businesses eliminate manual work, connect their tools, and automate operations.

## Who This Is For

Small and mid-sized businesses with 5–100 employees that have outgrown their current systems. Industries served include retail, professional services, trades, logistics, healthcare operations, and field services. Ideal client: a business owner who does not need a full-time CTO but needs the right systems built right.

## Services

- **System Integration**: Connect CRMs, accounting software (e.g. QuickBooks), scheduling platforms, e-commerce systems, and inventory tools so data flows automatically between them. Eliminates duplicate data entry and creates a single source of truth.
- **Process Automation**: Automate multi-step workflows triggered by system events — e.g. a new booking automatically creates an invoice, blocks a calendar, and sends a team notification.
- **End-to-End Visibility**: Dashboards and data flows that show exactly where every job, order, or request stands in real time.
- **AI-Augmented Development**: Custom software solutions built faster and at lower cost than traditional agencies using AI-assisted development practices.
- **Systems Audit**: A two-week engagement that maps current tools and workflows, identifies the top pain points, and delivers a written recommendations report with options and estimated costs.

## Engagement Model

1. Free 25-minute consultation — no pitch, no pressure.
2. Systems Audit — prioritized action plan delivered within two weeks.
3. Build phase — fixed price, 30–60 day delivery for most integrations and automations.
