Proofmark Automate

Your busywork, automated and proofed like it's our own.

Most of the busywork in a small business is the same message sent by hand, over and over: the quote follow-up, the invoice reminder, the reply to a new lead. We pick one task and build an automation that does it in your name. Every message gets mapped, marked up, dry-run and signed off before anything sends. Scroll through a project, from the first call to the first morning it runs.

What we need from you

Your part is short.

You know how you like to talk to customers. We handle the rest.

  • The task that eats your weekOne sentence is enough. We dig in on the call.
  • A few messages you've sentReal ones, so it sounds like you from day one.
  • Access to the tools it runs onYour email and books, set up with you on a short call.
  • Your rulesWho never gets a message, which hours, what to skip.
  • Ten minutes on the proofMark up the drafts. As much as you like.
How long it takes

Built in phases, proofed at each one.

How long each phase takes depends on the task and the tools it runs on. Here's the order it always runs in.

1BriefThe task, the tools, your rules.
2WorkflowWhen it starts, what it sends, when it stops.
3ConnectYour email and tools, read-only where possible.
4First proofReal drafts in your queue to mark up.
5RevisionsYour wording, your rules.
6Dry runTwo weeks of drafts. Nothing sends.
7Sign-off and liveYou approve, it runs every morning.

Your proposal has a fixed price and a dated timeline before anything starts.

After launch

It runs, and we stay.

Going live isn't where we disappear.

You stay in control

Approve each message, or switch a task to automatic once it's earned it. Pause anything in one tap.

Watched every day

Proofmark Pulse checks that every automation ran. If one stops or starts failing, we hear about it first.

Customers can always opt out

One reply and they're off the list for good. We keep the record so it never happens twice.

Add the next one

Once the first task runs well, the next one goes faster because the pieces are already in place.

Questions

About Automate.

Is AI writing to my customers?

AI drafts each message from your wording and the details of that customer. You see it in your queue before it sends. Until you switch a task to automatic, nothing goes out without your tap.

What if it gets something wrong?

That's what the queue and the dry run are for. You catch it before a customer sees it, and we adjust the wording or the rules. Every amount and date in a message comes straight from your own books, never from a guess.

Do I need new software?

No. We connect to what you already use: your email, QuickBooks, Square, your point of sale or your practice software. If something can't be connected, we tell you on the first call.

Will customers know it's automated?

Messages go out from your own email address or number, in your wording, signed by you. They read like a note from you because you approved the wording.

How is it priced?

A fixed price to build it, in writing after our first call, and a monthly fee that covers the AI and texting costs, Pulse watching it every day, and small changes as your business changes.

Tell us what's eating your week.

One sentence about the task you'd hand off first. We'll tell you on a quick call whether it's a good fit and what it would take.
