Biz Combinator builds custom operations systems for small businesses: payroll automation, AI-powered workflows, referral tracking, dashboards. I assess the problem, build the solution, and hand it off working.
Biz Combinator started inside The Better Mind Center, a therapy practice co-founded with my wife Christie. No ops budget, no IT team. I built the systems we needed: payroll automation for 7 therapists, a referral tracker that routed leads across the whole team, dashboards that tied SimplePractice to QuickBooks in one view.
Then another practice called. I built it again. Better. Then a third. The pattern became obvious: manual ops are slowing small businesses down, and most can't afford enterprise solutions. Biz Combinator is for the rest of us.

Get StartedEvery project follows the same four phases. Clear milestones, no mystery, and a system you fully understand by the end.
I map every manual workflow touching your team's time, find what's costing the most, what's closest to automatable, and where a well-built system would have the highest return.
I design the solution: what to build, which tools to use, and how it fits into your existing stack. No over-engineering. No tools you'll pay for and never actually open.
I build the system and test it against your real data and edge cases — not a sanitized demo. The people who'll actually use it validate it before anything goes live.
You get the system with full documentation and a training walkthrough. You own it completely. Ongoing support is available for teams that want a long-term ops partner.
