No team, no commissions. You always talk to me.
I am Béla Abel, a trained business administrator from Potsdam. I build the systems that take over recurring office work for small businesses, and I keep them running afterwards.
Béla Nicolai Abel, Potsdam
During my two years at a Berlin non-profit organization with 15 institutions and over 100 employees, I was responsible for the day-to-day accounting. This experience is the basis of this independence.

First understand, then optimise.
I look at how your office actually works and then deliver pragmatic solutions. From receipt entry to the fully automated process.
Not selling anything you do not need.
I do not sell tools that earn me commissions. I will not talk you into a subscription you do not need. If I am not the right person, I say so in the intro call.

I operate what I build for you myself.
My own office runs on the same automations I set up for clients: time tracking, lead scoring, appointment sync, monitoring. Six examples from daily operation.
Time tracking → CRM sync
Daily transfer of my working hours from Clockodo to the central Notion CRM. No manual transfer.
Daily Briefing
Mon-Fri 7:00 a.m. Slack message with open leads, yesterday's hours and daily goals. Day starts consolidated.
Tasks ↔ Calendar Bridge
Bidirectional sync: Notion tasks appear in the Outlook calendar, ticked-off appointments close the task.
Inbound lead classification
Real-time receipt of a request → Claude-AI assesses urgency and area → CRM update and prepared response in the email program.
Booking automation
Cal.eu bookings immediately land in the CRM with all contact details and trigger a Slack alert. No appointment is missed.
GDPR retention sweep
Weekly clean-up: lead data older than 90 days is automatically removed from the CRM. GDPR-compliant and traceable.
EU server clarification: The n8n engine (open workflow engine, runs on its own EU server) is hosted on Hetzner Falkenstein/Nuremberg. Which tools are integrated into the workflow depends on the use case. I build EU-First where possible (Brevo, Cal.eu, IONOS, German tax software) and document every US data touchpoint (Notion, Slack, Claude AI) with AVV (order processing agreement according to Art. 28 GDPR) and data flow diagram.
Where I work, what I work with, what I'm allowed to do.
