(404) 827-8035 · Atlanta, GA
For owner-operated businesses in Atlanta

You're losing jobs you already won.

Missed callbacks, forgotten follow-ups, quotes that disappear into silence. We find where your operation is leaking time and money — and hand you a plan to fix it.

Beltline Workflow — AI & workflow evaluations, Atlanta

Four leak patterns we find in nearly every operation we evaluate.

Calls and forms come in. Nobody owns them.

The receptionist took a message that disappeared. The lead went to a shared inbox nobody owns. The form submission never made it to the right person. Every missed inbound is a job you could have won.

Hey Sarah — sorry we missed you. What’s going on?

Water heater leaking in the basement
We can be out Tuesday 10am. Does that work?
Yes please 🙏
Booked · Tue 10am

A customer paid once. The relationship went dormant.

No systematic check-in, no upsell trigger, no maintenance touch — even when the next obvious need was sitting right there in the file. One-time work that should have been recurring revenue, leaking out month over month.

Most quotes that don’t close didn’t lose to a competitor — they lost to silence.

A proposal went out. No response. Nobody chased it. A systematic follow-up sequence (email → SMS → call) recovers a meaningful share of work the business already half-won.

Happy customers who never left a review because nobody asked.

The business does great work and ranks below competitors with louder, more systematic review programs. Fixing this is one of the cheapest, fastest leaks to close in any operation.

Every operation’s leaks look a little different. The evaluation finds yours.

What’s your business losing every year? Estimate it in under a minute.

Tell us a few things about your operation. We’ll show you a directional estimate — then walk you through where leaks like yours usually hide.

We don’t just tell you what’s broken. We hand you the plan to fix it.

Two weeks. One half-day onsite. A written report that names every leak we found, what it’s costing you, and what to do about it — tiered into Quick Wins, Core Automations, and Longer-Horizon Plays, with a 30/60/90 roadmap and one specific Week-One Win we can implement in 1–2 days. You keep the report whether you hire us to implement or not.

$2,000 Standard Evaluation. Fixed price.
2 weeks from kickoff to written report

The evaluation is a complete product. What you do with it is up to you.

  1. 01

    Your report quotes each fix individually.

    Every recommendation includes a scoped investment estimate. You know exactly what each fix costs before you decide to move forward on any of them.

  2. 02

    Implementation is priced per workflow based on actual complexity.

    Small fixes are small. Larger projects scope accordingly. No fixed menu, no surprises.

  3. 03

    Half down, half on delivery.

    50% at engagement start, 50% at completion, per workflow. We don’t get fully paid until the work’s fully delivered — keeps both sides aligned to the finish.

  4. 04

    Ongoing support is available as a scoped retainer.

    For clients who want hands-on partnership as workflows evolve. First month included with any Core Automation engagement.

  5. 05

    No obligation.

    The report is yours to keep regardless of whether you hire us to implement. Most clients hire us for one or two fixes after the evaluation. Some hire us for all of them. Some take the report and run with it themselves. All three are real outcomes.

Not an agency. Two operators who answer their own phones.

A written plan you keep regardless of what comes next.
