Fix the big one
Running
First call You, running it
Plain English
No jargon, no consultant-speak. You'll always know what's going on.
Fixed price
Agreed before we start. No surprises on the invoice.
No lock-in
No ongoing contract you can't get out of. Use us when you need us.
You own it
Everything we set up is yours to keep and run without us.

Sort the thing that's costing you most. Then the next.

No big transformation project, no jargon. We find the one or two things costing you the most — the admin eating your week, the software you're not using, or the leads you're losing to a slow reply — sort them out, and leave you set up to keep running without us.

  1. 01
    Plain English, always

    We won't bury you in consultant-speak. You'll always know exactly what we're doing, what it costs, and why it's worth it.

  2. 02
    We fix it, not just advise

    You won't get a fat report and a handshake. We do the actual setup — the tools, the templates, the process — sitting alongside you.

  3. 03
    Set up to keep working

    When we're done, it runs without us. Simple instructions, nothing that falls over the moment we walk out the door.

  4. 04
    Priced for small business

    No enterprise overhead, no retainer. A fair fixed price, agreed before we start, sized for a business your size.

  5. 05
    Simple automation, not AI hype

    Mostly this is simple automation doing the repetitive jobs for you. Where a bit of AI genuinely helps — sorting the inbox, drafting a reply — we'll use it, but only where it earns its keep.

A week, before and after

The same week's work — first the way it usually runs, then once it's sorted.

Before admin and leads, scattered

Quoting, invoicing and missed calls squeezed between jobs — and spilling into your evenings.

A short run each morning — quotes go out fast, and follow-ups run themselves.
As it is now
You, on the important bits
Runs on autopilot

A chat, a look, a fix.

Start small. Fix what's costing you most. Every job runs the same way — a quick chat about where your time goes, then a plain fix specific to your business. No templates, no big project plan to sign.

01

Have a chat

A quick call, 30 minutes or so. Tell us where your week goes and what's driving you up the wall. Nothing to prepare, no cost, no obligation.

  • An honest read on what's worth fixing
  • Agreed priorities on what to fix first
  • A clear cost, agreed before we start
02

Sort out the big one

We fix the one or two things costing you the most — the right software, templates for quotes and invoices, and automation for the repetitive bits. Set up alongside you, for how you actually work.

  • The right tool, set up properly
  • Reminders and follow-ups that send themselves
  • Usually done in a week or two
03

Leave you running

We show you how it works, write it down in plain terms, and step away. The automations keep running quietly in the background. It's yours to keep, with no lock-in and no ongoing fees.

  • Simple how-to notes, no manuals
  • Someone to call if something breaks
  • Optional check-in a few weeks on

Time is the deliverable. It's not the only one.

Getting your evenings back is the start. The same tools and automation that clear the admin also tend to win you more work, cut what you're spending on software, and show you which jobs are actually worth doing.

Running costs

Stop paying for tools you don't use

Most small businesses are quietly paying for software nobody opens anymore. We find what's actually being used, cut what isn't, and consolidate the rest — it often pays for itself in the first month.

Admin overheads

The admin that never stops, handled quietly

Quoting, invoicing, scheduling and follow-ups don't go away — but with the right AI tools and automation, they stop costing you your evenings and weekends.

Sales conversions

Win the job by replying first

Most jobs go to whoever quotes first, not whoever's cheapest. AI-drafted quotes and replies mean you're first to respond, even mid-job.

Sales conversions

Stop losing leads to a missed call

A missed call mid-job is a missed booking. Automated intake and after-hours booking catches the enquiries you'd otherwise never hear about.

The payoff

See what's actually making you money

Once the admin's off your plate, the numbers are finally visible — which jobs are worth taking, and which are quietly costing you.

Built for small operators — from just you to about fifteen.

We work best with owners who are still on the tools, behind the counter, or seeing clients — and doing the admin after hours. If that's you, we're a fit.

Electricians, plumbers, builders, landscapers, cleaners

Book a free call

Straight answers, before you call.

The free call covers all of this too — but if you'd rather read first, here's what people usually ask.

Getting started
What does Creke actually do?+

We look at where your week actually goes, fix the one or two things costing you the most — usually quoting, invoicing, scheduling or follow-ups — and set it up so it keeps running without us. No big transformation project, no ongoing dependency on us.

Is Creke a fit for a business my size?+

We work with sole traders up to about fifteen staff — trades, small health practices, cafés and small venues, and solo service businesses like bookkeepers, agencies and consultants. If you're still on the tools, behind the counter, or seeing clients yourself and doing admin after hours, that's exactly who this is for.

What happens on the free call?+

A 30-minute chat, nothing to prepare. You tell us where your time goes, we give you an honest read on what's worth fixing and what it'd cost to fix it. No obligation either way.

How is this different from hiring an IT company or a generalist consultant?+

We don't sell hardware, hosting or a particular software platform, and we don't hand over a strategy report and leave. We do the actual setup alongside you and only recommend the tool that fits — vendor-neutral, and focused on one working fix rather than a broad plan.

Cost & commitment
How much does it cost?+

A fixed price, agreed with you before we start — you'll never get a surprise on the invoice. Cost depends on what we're fixing, which is exactly what the free call establishes.

Do I have to sign a contract or retainer?+

No. There's no ongoing contract and no lock-in. You use us when you need us, and everything we set up is yours to keep and run without us.

What if I'm not happy with the result?+

Because scope and price are agreed upfront, there's no ambiguity about what "done" looks like. We talk it through before anything is built, so surprises at the end are rare — and we'd rather fix a mismatch than leave you with something that doesn't work for how you actually run things.

Process & disruption
How long does it take?+

Most fixes land in a week or two once we've agreed the scope. This isn't a months-long project — it's deliberately small and specific so it doesn't take over your business while it's happening.

Will this disrupt my day-to-day operations?+

That's the point we design against. We're not proposing a system-wide overhaul — we fix the one or two things eating your time, built around how you already work, so your business keeps running normally while we do it.

What do I need to prepare or provide?+

Not much. For the free call, nothing — just tell us where your week goes. If we move ahead, we'll ask for access to whatever systems are involved and a bit of your time to walk us through how things actually happen day to day.

Technology, AI & your data
Do I need to be tech-savvy to work with you?+

No. Everything's explained in plain English, and when we finish we write it down in simple how-to notes — not manuals. If you can run your business, you can run what we set up.

Is my business and customer data safe?+

We only connect the tools and access needed for the specific fix we're doing, and we're upfront about what any recommended software does with your data before you commit to it. You're not signing up to a black box.

Are you going to replace me or my staff with AI?+

No — that's not what this is for. We use automation and, where it genuinely helps, AI to take repetitive admin off your plate, not to replace judgement calls that need a person. If a tool doesn't clearly earn its place, we don't recommend it.

After the engagement
What happens after you finish? Who do I call if something breaks?+

We show you how it works and leave you with simple instructions and someone to call if something goes wrong. There's also an optional check-in a few weeks later if you want one — but nothing that locks you in.

Can I come back later for something else?+

Yes — that's how most engagements go. We fix the biggest thing first, then you can come back for the next one whenever it makes sense, with no retainer sitting between visits.

Still got a question? Book a free call and just ask — it's usually quicker than digging around a website.
