What's actually slowing
your business down?

A free 90-minute working session in Lima. Bring the one thing that eats your week — leave knowing what it costs you and exactly how to fix it.

No cost. No pitch from the stage. You keep everything we build.

Does this sound like your week?

Most owners can feel the drag but can't name where it is. That's the whole problem.

Everything waits on you to approve, price or sign it
The same information gets typed into three different places
Jobs get missed because a handoff lives in someone's head
You're quoting at 9pm because the day got eaten
One person knows how to do the thing, and they're on vacation
Your busiest week and your best week are never the same week

$20,000 – $80,000

is what most Lima businesses we sit down with are losing every year to manual work and missed calls they've accepted as "just how it is."

A bottleneck isn't "being busy"

It's the one step everything else waits behind. Fix it and the whole line moves.

A real one, from a Lima contractor
The symptom

"We're slammed and still not making money."

The bottleneck

Every quote waited on the owner. Nobody else could price a job.

The fix

A pricing sheet his crew could run, and quotes went out same-day.

Nothing about that fix was software. Most aren't. We find the constraint first and only then ask what it needs.

The session

What we'll actually do, in 90 minutes

It's a working session, not a talk. You'll be drawing on paper in the first ten minutes.

First 25 min

Your week on one sheet

Every job, call, quote and handoff — drawn, not described. Most owners have never seen their own business on one page.

Next 20 min

Find where it piles up

We follow the work until it stops moving. The pile is the bottleneck — and it's almost never where people guess.

Next 15 min

Put a number on it

Hours lost per week, times your rate, times fifty. Once it has a dollar figure, it stops being "just how it is."

Last 30 min

Build the fix

The smallest change that moves the constraint — written down, in order, small enough to start Monday.

You walk out with

Your workflow on one page

The map you drew, yours to keep.

Your #1 bottleneck, named

The specific step, not a vague area.

What it costs you a year

A real number you can act on.

A fix you can start Monday

Written in order, no software required.

Who should come

A good fit

Who's running it

Jayson Paglow

Paglow Automations · Lima, Ohio

I build automation for small businesses around Allen County — phone agents that answer when you can't, custom software that fits how you already work.

Every one of those builds started the same way: sitting down and finding the one step everything else was waiting on. This workshop is that first hour, run for a room instead of one company.

I live and work here. You'll be talking to the person who does the work, not a rep.

Straight answers

Is this a sales pitch?

No pitch from the stage. You'll get the map and the fix whether or not you ever hire anyone to build it. If you want me to build it afterward, that's a conversation you start — not one I corner you into.

What does it cost?

Free. There's no upsell at the door and no card to put down.

How long is it, and when?

90 minutes. The date isn't set yet — that's what the waitlist is for. I'll email you as soon as it is, and you can say no then.

Where is it?

A room in Lima. I'll send the address with the date.

What do I need to bring?

Yourself and a rough sense of where your week goes. No spreadsheets, no reports, no prep. If you want to bring the person who actually runs the day-to-day, bring them.

Do I need to be technical?

No. Half the fixes that come out of this aren't software at all — they're a checklist, a price sheet, or one person being allowed to say yes.

What if I'm not in Allen County?

Sign up anyway. The first session is Allen County only, but you'll be first in line for the next one and I'll tell you when it's set.

Why only 12 seats?

Because everyone in the room gets their own business mapped. Past about a dozen, it turns into a lecture — which is the thing this isn't.
