Who This Is For (And Who It's Not)

Let's be upfront — I'm not for everyone. Here's who gets the best results working with me.

✅ Perfect For

  • Retail SMBs (5-50 employees) with manual processes eating 10+ hours/week
  • Solo entrepreneurs drowning in spreadsheets and repetitive tasks
  • Growing businesses already using Microsoft 365 (Teams, Excel, SharePoint)
  • Budget-conscious teams looking for €3k-€8k projects (not €50k+ enterprise)

❌ Not a Fit

  • Enterprise organizations (1000+ employees) — I specialize in nimble SMB solutions
  • Companies not using Microsoft stack — my expertise is Power Platform
  • DIY learners wanting training — I deliver done-for-you solutions
  • Businesses needing immediate 24/7 support — I work business hours (Ireland time)
Starting Budget: Most clients invest €3,000-€8,000 for their first project, which typically pays for itself in 2-4 months through time savings and error reduction.

Signature Approach — S.T.E.P.

A proven 4-step process that delivers measurable results quickly

Why SMBs Choose Me Over Big Agencies

I'm not just another consultant. I'm a fellow entrepreneur who understands the SMB struggle.

Pavan — Automation Freelancer specializing in Power Platform, Power BI, and Azure

💫 My Story

I've been where you are. In 2019, I started my own e-commerce business in Bangalore. I spent countless hours on manual inventory updates, order processing, and customer follow-ups.

The breaking point: I was working 80-hour weeks but barely growing. That's when I discovered automation. Within 3 months, I automated 70% of my manual work and scaled 3x.

Now I help other SMBs avoid the same trap. You shouldn't be doing work a computer can do better. Your time should be spent growing your business, not drowning in spreadsheets.

🎯 Beyond Work

🏃‍♂️ Fitness enthusiast: I run 5k daily (helps me think through complex automation problems!)

📚 Continuous learner: Currently studying Azure AI to bring smarter automation to SMBs

🌍 Travel lover: Lived in 3 countries, worked with businesses across 5 time zones

☕ Coffee addict: Best ideas come during my 6am coffee + planning sessions

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about timelines, pricing, and how I work

Yes — my expertise is in the Microsoft Power Platform ecosystem.

If you don't have Microsoft 365 yet, I can help you evaluate if it's the right fit and assist with setup. Most SMBs already have Microsoft 365 for email (Outlook) and document storage (SharePoint/OneDrive).

That's normal! I handle everything:

  • Build the solution (no technical knowledge needed from you)
  • Train your team with simple, non-technical guides
  • Provide ongoing support for questions
  • Create documentation anyone can follow

Your team just needs to know how to use the tools I build — I make it simple.

Absolutely! Most clients start small:

  • Free 30-min audit: I identify 2-3 quick wins
  • Pilot project: Start with one workflow (€1,500-€3,000)
  • Scale up: Once you see results, we tackle bigger challenges

No need to commit to a massive project upfront. Start small, prove value, then expand.

My Results Guarantee:

  • If the solution doesn't work as specified, I fix it for free
  • If it's not delivering measurable value, we revise the approach
  • You only pay for work that delivers results

I've never had a project fail to deliver value — but if it happens, I make it right.

Yes! I work remotely with clients across Europe and beyond.

  • Communication: Video calls, email, Teams chat
  • Time zones: I work Ireland time (GMT/IST) but flexible for meetings
  • Delivery: 100% remote — no need for in-person visits

Location doesn't matter as long as you have Microsoft 365 and internet access.

Yes, absolutely. I sign NDAs before any detailed discussions about your business processes. Just ask and I'll send you my standard NDA template, or we can use yours.

Typical timeline: 1-3 weeks from audit to deployment.

  • Week 1: Audit + design
  • Week 2: Build + test
  • Week 3: Deploy + train

Simple flows (e.g., email automation) can be done in days.

Typical timeline: 2-6 weeks depending on data sources.

  • Weeks 1-2: Data modeling + ETL setup
  • Weeks 3-4: Dashboard design + build
  • Weeks 5-6: Testing + training

Simple dashboards with clean data: 2-3 weeks. Complex multi-source dashboards: 4-6 weeks.

Typical timeline: 4+ weeks for comprehensive setup.

  • Week 1: Security audit
  • Weeks 2-3: Implementation (access control, data masking, backups)
  • Week 4: Testing + documentation

Ongoing governance support available as a retainer.

I follow least-privilege principles:

  • Development: Temporary credentials to a dev/test environment (never production during build)
  • Production deployment: You deploy, or I use temporary admin access that you revoke immediately after
  • Support: Read-only access if needed for troubleshooting

All access is documented and time-limited.

Fixed-price sprints based on scope from the audit:

  • Small automation: €1,500 - €3,000
  • Dashboard project: €3,000 - €8,000
  • Governance setup: €5,000 - €12,000

Retainer option: One-off project + 5-10 hours/week ongoing support.

All projects include training, documentation, and governance setup.

Yes! I integrate with your team and upskill them:

  • Knowledge transfer sessions during build
  • End-user training on delivery
  • Admin training for your IT team
  • Documentation for future maintenance

Goal: Your team can maintain and extend the solution after I leave.

During our scan call:

  • You describe 1-2 repetitive workflows
  • I identify automation opportunities
  • We estimate time savings & ROI
  • You get 1-2 quick-win ideas immediately

No obligation. No sales pitch. Just value.
