Feel like growth depends entirely on you?

You’ve built a successful service business but now it feels like your business is running you. You’re buried in work, burned out, and you don’t love it like you once did.

More clients mean more work, more people, more stress.

SaaS tools are fast and affordable but often rigid.

Custom apps offer control but require investment.

What’s right for your business?

You’re not alone and it’s not a lack of ideas. You’re just too close to your work to see the product hiding in your business.

You’re not starting from scratch. You already have:

A working business

A team (or trusted freelancers)

Systems (even if imperfect)

Paying customers

Domain expertise

You’ve already achieved so much. This escape plan just helps you see what you’re sitting on and turn it into your most valuable asset

This Guide Will Help You:

Spot the scalable product hidden inside your current services

Package and price your expertise into a recurring offer

Build a path toward consistent revenue and a business that runs without you

Even if you think:

“My clients are all different”

“My work is too custom”

“I wouldn’t even know where to begin”

Is This Guide Right for You?

This guide is made for service-based business owners who:

Deliver high-touch services that rely heavily on their time or expertise

Keep adding team members yet still feel overwhelmed by workload

DataCose are experts at saving hours each week. They were able to complete a job that was taking our previous team months to complete in a matter of days. Their communication is great and fast to respond. DataCose had no problem making multiple revisions to get the job done exactly the way we needed it and we will certainly be working with DataCose for any future development projects.

DataCose is an amazing partner for us as we build our business. From helping us strategize about how to automate mundane tasks to building out custom data systems to make our business run more smoothly, Dylan and the DataCose team provide incredible service and expertise that we desperately need at this early stage of our business. I would highly recommend working with them!

When evaluating ideas to optimize our business, DataCose was able to successfully implement automation in time consuming areas such as reaching prospects in a personalized way, defining specific market segments, and using visually appealing components throughout the process. The tools they implemented were easy to use, and troubleshooting was easy. I highly recommend services from DataCose.

DataCose has been a game-changer for New Orleans Perspectives. They automated our invoice generation, reminder emails, and SMS, and created tools for bulk emailing our participant database. Additionally, they built a sign-in application and a live-streaming solution for our sessions. The team's quick speed, collaborative approach, and deep understanding of our needs made the entire process smooth and efficient. Highly recommended, and I wouldn't use anyone else!

DataCose worked quickly to automate a critical component of our agency. They responded quickly to all of our messages and even followed up several times later to make sure everything was still working as intended. We highly recommend DataCose and will contact them first for any future automation projects.
