Competitor's workflow broke. Took them 9 days to fix. I rebuilt the entire thing in 11 minutes. Client switched vendors on day 10. THE CRISIS 3 AM email from prospect: "Our workflow stopped working" "Agency says 7-10 days to fix" "Processing 500 transactions daily" "Losing $3k per day in delays" "Can you help?" THE BROKEN WORKFLOW What failed: - Customer order processing - Inventory updates - Shipping notifications - Payment confirmations Agency's response: "Need to audit the entire system" "Could be the API integration" "Might need to rebuild from scratch" "Timeline: 7-10 business days" "Emergency rate: $15,000" THE CALL Prospect: "Can you fix it?" Me: "Don't need to" Prospect: "What do you mean?" Me: "I'll build you a new one right now" Prospect: "That doesn't help, we need it fixed" Me: "New one will be working in 10 minutes" Silence. Prospect: "You're joking" Me: "Describe your workflow" THE BUILD Prospect explains the process. Standard e-commerce automation. I open Skada.ai Type the requirements. Generate workflow. 9 minutes later: - Order processing: Working - Inventory sync: Working - Notifications: Working - Payment tracking: Working Me: "Send a test order" They process a test transaction. Everything fires perfectly. Prospect: "What just happened" THE COMPARISON Agency's fix: - Day 1-2: System audit - Day 3-4: Identify issue - Day 5-7: Rebuild nodes - Day 8-9: Testing - Cost: $15,000 - Status: Still broken My rebuild: - Minute 1-3: Requirements - Minute 4-9: Generation - Minute 10-11: Testing - Cost: $5,000 - Status: Live and working THE SWITCH Prospect: "Can you handle our volume?" Me: "What's your volume?" Prospect: "500 orders daily" Me: "That's nothing, it'll handle thousands" They migrated that morning. Canceled the agency. Agency called: "We're almost done with the fix" Prospect: "Don't need it anymore" Agency: "You found someone else?" Prospect: "Yeah, he rebuilt everything in 11 minutes" Agency: "That's impossible" Prospect: "It's been running for 6 hours"
