I embed in your business, audit how work actually moves through it, and put the highest-£ workflow live before I leave. Fixed fee: £4,950. Most pay back inside 30 days.
Every five minutes you take to respond to a hot lead, you halve the chance of converting it. AI agents that reply in seconds, qualify, and book the call.
RFP responses, proposal drafts, CRM hygiene, pipeline reporting. Most revenue teams reclaim 8–10 hours per rep per week.
Routing, response drafting, end-to-end deflection on common queries. One I shipped recently handles 63% of tickets without a human.
Internal apps your team actually uses. Built in Claude Code, n8n and Replit. Zero tickets on your eng backlog.
Invoice generation, dunning, reconciliation, AR follow-up. The boring back-office work that quietly costs you cash.
Campaign workflows, content production, SEO ops, lifecycle email. About half my Builds end up here.
We figure out whether your problem is one I can actually fix. If it isn't, I'll tell you inside the first ten minutes.
10 days inside your business. I audit your workflows, rank opportunities by £-impact, and put one live before I leave. Fixed fee: £4,950.
Most founders carry on — a 90-day retainer to ship the remaining workflows, or a longer embedded engagement when the issues run deeper. Both optional. The Build stands on its own.
Most founders start here. I walk in on day 1, audit how work actually moves through your business, rank the highest-£ opportunities, and put one workflow live by day 10.
No deck. No "scored action plan." Working software your team uses on day 11.
Post-Series A startups where ops is bottlenecked and headcount keeps climbing. Bootstrapped businesses pushing past £5M, feeling the strain in sales ops, support and finance. Founder-led businesses that have run the AI experiments and watched every one die in pilot.
The stage label doesn't matter. The problem does.
Your default fix is headcount. You want a strategy deck, not working software. You need a management consultant who'll embed for six months and charge accordingly.
The Build is for founders who'd rather see one workflow running in production than ten on a roadmap.
Saher Shodhan is an exited founder, senior operator, and hands-on builder. He's been in the founder seat, not the advisor seat. That's the difference.
A decade scaling operations where things break daily — Uber India launch team, Head of Ops at Urban Company, founded and sold Traktion (acquired by IDX, 2023), Interim COO during Cloud Cycle's European expansion.
Technical for an operator. Builds workflows and internal tooling himself in Claude Code, n8n, Replit and Webflow. When an ops problem needs software, it gets shipped — without your engineering team lifting a finger.
Based in London. Fixing operations across Europe.
Implementation. I do the work inside the business — not advise from the outside and hand over a framework. If you just want a slide deck, I'm not the right fit.
Three differences. I embed for focused execution rather than open-ended retainers. I'm an exited founder, not an operations generalist. And I build the workflows and tooling myself, instead of adding tickets to your engineering backlog.
Founder-led businesses at any stage — post-Series A startups, bootstrapped companies scaling through £5–10M, businesses that just took on investment for the first time. The stage label doesn't matter. The problem does.
A 10-day fixed-fee engagement. I audit your workflows across ops, sales, customer service and finance, rank the highest-leverage opportunities by £-impact, and ship one workflow to production before I leave. £4,950, fixed fee. Most workflows pay back the Build inside 30 days.
That's the point of the audit. The first half of the Build is finding the highest-£ opportunities you didn't know were there. You pick the one we ship. If nothing has a clear payback, I'll tell you before we start and we won't run the Build.
Most founders carry on — either a 90-day retainer to ship the remaining workflows on the playbook, or a longer embedded engagement when the operational issues run deeper than workflows alone can solve. Both are optional. The Build stands on its own.
London. I work with founder-led businesses across Europe, drawing on direct experience launching and scaling markets in Europe and Asia.
No. About half my Builds end up shipping marketing or sales workflows — speed-to-lead agents, content engines, lifecycle email, RFP responders. The common thread is the format, not the function: ten days, one shipped workflow, working software your team uses on day eleven.
No. But you do need to be open to using AI and software to fix problems instead of just adding headcount. I build the workflows and tooling myself — you don't need engineering resources for it. If your default answer to every operational problem is "hire someone," this probably isn't the right fit.
Pick a time. We'll work out whether your problem is one I can fix. No pitch, no pressure — and if it isn't a fit, I'll tell you inside the first ten minutes.
