What is inside

A fill-in-the-numbers workbook that walks you from business audit to build brief in five sessions. Includes a scoring matrix for ranking automation opportunities, a real ROI calculator, a 30-day implementation roadmap with daily milestones, and the Five-Gate decision framework you can reuse for every future AI initiative. This is the same pre-build assessment we run with every consulting client at Modern Mustard Seed.
