Nick Tapia • Contractor Operations

Stop doing paperwork at 9pm

I have run a contracting business and I have built technical systems. I am not selling crap software. I build processes that make your business run better.

Who I am in 90 seconds

I like to work with contractors

I like to give you back your time. I do this so good contractors can focus on the work and the customer, while the business stops eating nights and weekends. The ways I like to help:

CRM automation for new leads

Get you away from irritating, repetitive paper work. I automate as much as possible.

Business flow diagram

Smooth out your business operations. I map the business flow and fix the holes.

Drone inspection for planning

Plan for problems. This prevents emergencies that are money and time sinks.

SOP documentation

Improve internal communications. I help write standards and operations manuals so people know what to do.

Here are two businesses I ran

So you know I'm not blowing smoke. You can take a look at the case studies if you like.

These experiences shaped how I think about systems.

Who I work with

Contractors. Usually shops of 3 to 20 people. You have enough work, but you want the business to run with fewer issues.

Not a fit if:

Here's my photo so you know I'm a human

Aside from a few of my own businesses... I've worked at JPMC in cyber security. I've done mapping and data cleaning work at startups. I'm currently based in Anchorage and I still do some hands on work when I volunteer at Habitat for Humanity or help my parents with some problem they might have.

Here are some basic examples of things I can help you with

Typically there are three things people will hire me for

Diagnostic

$750 to $1,500

Flat fee. I'll map your business, find the leaks, build a fix it plan.

Ongoing Systems Improvement

$1,500 to $4,000/mo

Monthly retainer for steady improvements without re-scoping.

Single Issue

???

Depends on what you want done.

Most contractors start with diagnostic. Retainer is for businesses that want this completely off their plate. Single issue is for people who want *one* thing.

Work approach

Remote. BUT, I'll come to you anywhere in the USA if you pay for the flight, hotel, and show me a good time.
