How we calculate this
70%
Admin time automated
Ops-Deck automates scheduling confirmations, invoice creation, follow-up messages, payment reminders, and report generation — the tasks that eat most admin hours.
4.33
Weeks per month
We use the standard 4.33 weeks/month (52 weeks ÷ 12 months) to convert weekly hours to monthly values. This gives the most accurate monthly dollar figure.
20%
Additional client capacity
Based on typical patterns: recovering 7+ hours/week of admin time generally allows a business to handle ~20% more clients without adding staff.
Common questions
Everything you want to know
Research shows small service businesses spend 15–25 hours per week on administrative tasks like scheduling, invoicing, follow-ups, and reporting. Business automation software typically reduces this by 60–75%. For a business owner spending 20 hours/week on admin, that's 12–15 hours recovered per week.
ROI = (Net benefit ÷ Cost) × 100. For business software: Net benefit = Value of time saved + Revenue from additional capacity. Cost = Annual software subscription. Example: if automation saves 10 hrs/week at $75/hr, that's $3,250/month. Subtract $99 software cost = $3,151/month net. Annual ROI = ($37,812 net ÷ $1,188 cost) × 100 = 3,183%.
Ops-Deck automates: appointment scheduling and confirmations, invoice creation and sending, payment reminders, client follow-up messages after jobs, review request emails, lead capture and routing to your CRM, team scheduling notifications, and business report generation. These are typically the most time-consuming repetitive tasks for service businesses.
For routine, repeatable admin tasks (scheduling, invoicing, follow-ups), 70% automation is conservative. The tasks that can't be automated are ones requiring judgment — like scoping a complex job or handling a difficult client situation. Manual work like on-site diagnostics isn't included in admin hours to begin with.
Most service businesses start saving time in the first week — especially from automated appointment reminders (which reduce no-shows) and streamlined invoicing. Full ROI on the time savings is typically visible within 30 days. The $1 trial means your first month investment is essentially zero.
