Start here

Find a repeated task with clear inputs and an output someone can check. Avoid sensitive information in your first test.

Run the smallest useful test

Map the manual process, produce a reviewed sample, and test a second example before offering a pilot.

Look for this signal

The buyer sees a useful time or quality improvement and wants another run.

Keep an eye on the real costs

Tool access, review time, maintenance, and exceptions.

A useful boundary

Sell the improved process and its maintenance scope, not unlimited automation.

Draft your offer

A repeatable [workflow] that helps [team] produce [output] with a defined review step.

Use this as a starting point. Replace every bracket with something specific, then check the draft with someone who fits your intended audience.

Make the next decision

Record the time and money you spent, the people you spoke to, what they did, and the next action you will take. If there is no meaningful interest, change the buyer, the problem, or the offer before spending more.
