ALONGSIDE / PRACTICAL SMALL BUSINESS SYSTEMS
Custom automation for the way your business works.
Alongside Automation is based in Mesa, Arizona, and supports independent business owners remotely across the United States.
Start with the work you recognize
A proposal that needs to become a material list. A sales visit that needs a clear follow-up. A cleaning schedule that needs the right supplies. These are the kinds of everyday tasks we use to find a manageable first project.
Build around your business
We review the documents, spreadsheets and systems you use today. A first project might be an editable template, a planning sheet or a small connected process. Any direct integration is scoped around the platform, available access and the person who will maintain it.
A clear starting process
- Describe one task and the tools involved.
- Agree on the input, output, budget and review step.
- Test the result with fictional or anonymized information.
- Review the handoff instructions and support arrangement before using it in daily work.
Ask in writing, on your schedule
Start with the live inquiry form or email hello@alongsideautomation.com. The free opportunity check begins by email; evening calls can be arranged if useful. Project pricing and any software costs are agreed before paid work begins.
About the examples
The sample documents and workflows on this site illustrate possible projects. They are not client case studies or measured savings. Your own sample work determines what a useful and feasible setup would look like.
