The Client

A Dubai-based trading company focused on import and distribution with a lean operations team managing multiple workflows simultaneously.

The Challenge

The operations manager was drowning in manual, repetitive tasks that consumed 3–4 hours daily:

  • Manually copying WhatsApp leads into spreadsheets
  • Chasing unpaid invoices by phone every single day
  • Typing repetitive follow-up messages to prospects
  • Manually compiling daily sales summaries for the owner

Result: Invoices outstanding for 45+ days, warm leads going cold, and no reliable performance visibility for leadership.

The Solution

1. Lead Capture & CRM Sync
