01
Connect the tools you already use
Your CRM, accounts package and project management platform (Monday, Asana, ClickUp or Jira) joined up, so information flows between them and nobody keys the same data in three times.
Farnagates Services
Software and AI for small businesses. Built by someone who's run them.
We start by understanding how your business actually runs, then help you decide what's worth changing. Practical software and AI, introduced at a pace that suits you.
What we often see
Many growing businesses run on tools that don't talk to each other.
A CRM, an accounts package, a project board and a few spreadsheets, each doing its job but none of them connected. Knowledge that lives in a few people's heads, or in a filing cabinet. And a growing sense that AI ought to help, without a clear view of where.
None of this is unusual, and it rarely needs a big programme to put right. It usually starts with a conversation about where the time goes, followed by a few well-chosen changes.
How we can help
Four areas where we tend to help.
Every business is different, so we start with your priorities rather than a fixed menu. AI comes in where it genuinely helps.
02
AI that reads your paperwork
Years of scanned PDFs, surveys, contracts and invoices, read and organised automatically, with anything uncertain flagged for a person to check.
03
Marketing you can measure
Google Ads, Search Console and conversion tracking set up properly, so you can see which spend leads to real work.
04
Build the missing piece
Custom tools such as estimators, time-tracking and knowledge bases, for the parts of your business where off-the-shelf software doesn't quite fit.
Who you'd be working with
Someone who has sat on your side of the table.
Michael Gadd has spent thirty years founding technology companies, building and running a property development firm, and advising boards from start-ups to the Fortune 250. He has led technical teams, written software and carried the day-to-day responsibility of running a business.
He now works with small and mid-sized businesses as a hands-on adviser: listening first, recommending what's genuinely worth doing, and then helping to build it.
Worth a conversation?
An informal conversation about where things stand and what might help. No obligation, and no pressure to commit to anything.
