Business pain and ROI

What can I automate before I hire another person?

Look at the workload driving the hire and separate repetitive steps from work that truly needs another person's judgment or capacity. Automate data entry, reminders, routing, standard updates, and reporting first, then see what workload remains.

What to check

Which steps are repetitive and predictable?
What work still requires a person's judgment after automation?
