Automation for small retailers

Operations that glide.

I build the unglamorous automation that quietly consumes a shop owner's week: stock sync, multi-channel inventory, back-office admin. Built properly, tested, and hosted, so it just runs.

Fixed prices · tested builds · UK-based · honest about whether it's worth it

The 3-minute walkthrough: a live scan, the fix, and the price.

The problem

Your stock is in three places. Right now, someone's job is making sure they match.

For a small retailer, the same jobs bleed hours every week, and they're exactly the jobs software should be doing.

Stale stock

Products "out of stock" but still listed. Customers find them on Google, and are forced to buy elsewhere.

Channels drift

Your website, eBay and Amazon show different stock. The same item sells twice. Someone gets a refund and an apology.

Manual admin

Catalogues updated by hand, repeated questions from customers, paperwork copied between systems. Enough said, nobody likes this.

Services

Automation, scoped and priced to your setup

No off-the-shelf tiers. Most shops already run some tools, so I price each build to what you actually need, quoted up front after a free audit, never a day rate or open-ended bill.

How it works

I show you your own numbers first

Most consultants send a sales deck. I show up with a working diagnosis of your actual store, then build the fix.

Free audit

I run a live check on your store and show you exactly what's costing you sales.

15-minute call

We look at it together. I tell you honestly whether automation is worth it for you.

Fixed-price build

If it's a yes, I scope it, build it, test it, and host it. You stop thinking about the problem.

Proven work

A nightly stock sync across 91,000 products

For a UK workwear retailer I built an automated nightly sync that keeps the website's stock matched to supplier feeds, shipped with 121 automated tests, guarded against bad data, hosted and monitored so it runs without anyone watching it.

Jordan Bee

I'm a software developer, born in Hawaii and based in London. I help small businesses stop losing time to manual back-office work. I build things properly: tested, hosted, and looked after. Most freelancers don't. If I can't build something reliably, I'll tell you. If it isn't worth doing, I'll tell you that too.
