My Method

Seven structured steps from discovery to controlled pilot.

Each step produces a specific artifact — a map, a document, a configuration, or a test result — that the next step depends on. Nothing is skipped for speed.

01
Step

Workflow Discovery

I begin with structured interviews with founders, operations, and front-desk staff. Together we document what actually happens today — including workarounds, shadow processes, and points of friction.

02
Step

Client Journey Mapping

I map every touchpoint from first inquiry to repeat visit. Ownership, timing, and communication channel are made explicit for each step.

03
Step

CRM Logic Optimization

I review statuses, pipelines, custom fields, handoffs, and automation triggers against the mapped journey, and recommend a simpler, more reliable model.

04
Step

Knowledge Base Structuring

I organize approved answers, source documents, escalation rules, and out-of-scope topics into a retrievable, versioned knowledge base.

05
Step

RAG / Chatbot Readiness

I define retrieval configuration, prompts, response scope, guardrails, and fallback paths so any AI-supported channel behaves predictably.

06
Step

QA & Behavioral Calibration

I test automated responses against the Behavioral Calibration Framework — RSI (stability), IDS (interpretive drift), and RCS (response coherence and structure) — relative to defined policy and tone.

07
Step

Controlled Pilot Support

I launch a bounded pilot with clear success criteria, monitoring, and human escalation. Expansion happens only after validated performance.

Ready to see where your client journey loses continuity?

Request a Workflow Audit. I map your current CRM, intake, scheduling, and follow-up paths, and identify where structured workflows and responsible AI can strengthen continuity.
