# Automations for everything that falls through the cracks

A lead nobody followed up with, a deal that closed on Friday and got noticed on Monday, an invoice sent two weeks late: Dobify builds automations that close these gaps for good.

Delivery: 2–4 weeks

The problem

## Money leaks in the gaps

Every manual handoff, between the form and the call, the deal and the alert, the delivery and the invoice, is a place where revenue leaks without anyone noticing. No single person is to blame, but the cost adds up.

What Dobify builds

## Workflows that run themselves

We build multi-touch follow-up sequences over SMS, email and WhatsApp, real-time Slack alerts when deals move, two-way CRM sync and invoicing triggered by delivery. The base is n8n, and where its ready-made integrations fall short, we write custom code, so you are not tied to a single tool. Where volume is high we set up self-hosted n8n on a server in your name, so you pay a flat infrastructure cost instead of per-task pricing that scales against you.

What you get

## The gaps stay closed

Leads get every follow-up touch, your team reacts in seconds instead of days, and the busywork of moving things between systems goes away.

## What ships in the box

- ### Follow-up sequences
  SMS, email and WhatsApp touches, timed right, so leads don't go cold.
- ### Real-time notifications
  Slack/WhatsApp alerts the second a lead converts, drops off or a deal closes.
- ### CRM operations
  Two-way syncs, deduplication and enrichment, so your CRM stays clean on its own.
- ### Finance flows
  Invoices, payment reminders and reconciliation triggered by real events.
- ### Monitoring
  Every workflow has alerts and logs, so silent failures get caught.
- ### Flat-cost stack
  Self-hosted n8n on a server from about €6 a month (excl. VAT), with no per-task fees.

## Frequently asked

### What does process automation cost to build and run?

It depends on the scope: how many processes you automate, how many systems each one connects, your run volume, and whether it runs on self-hosted n8n on a server in your name or on a SaaS platform. On self-hosted n8n the running cost stays flat regardless of volume, about €6 a month (excl. VAT) of infrastructure with no execution fees, instead of per-task pricing that climbs as you grow. The free audit prices your exact scope before you commit.

### n8n or custom code: which will Dobify use?

Whichever fits your process, volume and team. The base is usually n8n, self-hosted on a server in your name when volume is high or the data is sensitive. Where the logic or an integration goes beyond what makes sense to build in n8n, we write custom code. The audit settles it with your numbers.

### How quickly do automations pay for themselves?

It depends on how many leads go cold today and what each one is worth to you. The Dobify audit estimates your specific payback before you spend anything.
