Estimate the real yearly cost of one repeated task your team still does by hand, follow-up, reporting, data entry, whatever it is.
This is a rough estimate based on time and hourly value alone, it doesn't count missed follow-up, delayed reporting, or errors caused by manual handoffs, which usually cost more than the hours themselves.
Book a Free Workflow Assessment →Five hours a week on a manual task feels small in the moment. Multiplied across a year, and across every person doing it, it's usually a much bigger number than anyone expected.
And this calculator only counts the visible cost: the hours themselves. It doesn't count the lead that got followed up on a day late, the report that was wrong because someone fat-fingered a cell, or the customer who went with someone faster.
See How a Workflow Audit Works →Ask your team these four questions. If more than one gets a shrug instead of a clear answer, that's worth a closer look.
Can you name, right now, who owns the next action on every open item on your team?
If you ask three people what a pipeline stage actually means, do you get three different answers?
Does your team distinguish between "we expect this" and "this is confirmed", or does one date do both jobs?
How much of your last status meeting was spent figuring out what was already true, rather than deciding what to do next?
A Workflow Audit gives you the actual breakdown points, not a rough guess.
