About this gig

Most small businesses run on one spreadsheet that has quietly become the business. It works until two people open it at once, until a formula gets dragged wrong, until the person who understands it goes on leave.


I replace it with a proper system: a real database behind it, a clean screen to capture on, search that finds things, and a record of who changed what and when.


I did exactly this for a calibration laboratory in Durban. Their whole operation, which instrument, calibrated against which standard, by whom, due when, lived in spreadsheets. It is now a system their staff use every day.


WHAT YOU GET

A data model that fits how you actually work, not how a template thinks you should.

Forms your staff can use without training.

Your existing data imported and checked.

Search, filters and list views.

Runs in a browser, on a phone or a desktop.


HOW IT RUNS

Send your spreadsheet with sensitive data removed. I write you a blueprint: the data model, the screens, and what the build costs. Go ahead and the blueprint fee comes off the build.


Sixteen years running operations. I care whether your staff will actually use it.

I build the boring systems that stop small businesses losing money. Enquiries answered on Monday. Quotes nobody follows up. The same details typed into three places. Those aren't technology problems, they're plumbing problems, and I fix them with n8n, Make, Zapier and light AI. Sixteen years in operations before I wrote software, so I design around how a business actually runs. You get error handling, documentation, a walkthrough recording, everything in your own accounts, and a fixed price agreed up front. Durban, GMT+2. Message me before ordering if you're unsure.
