DO MORE OF WHAT YOU LOVE
You started your business to pursue your passion, not to get buried in administrative tasks. Yet running a business inevitably brings with it a host of time-consuming responsibilities that pull you away from your core mission.
At Common Sense, we help small businesses and busy professionals reclaim their time by streamlining or eliminating routine tasks, allowing them to focus on the work that truly matters to them.
We work closely with our clients to identify processes that can be partially or fully automated, creating efficient systems that reduce the burden of day-to-day operations. Our goal is simple: to give you back more time for the work you love.
Through strategic use of low-code automation tools and generative AI, we create reliable solutions that enhance your productivity and streamline your operations. And because we value long-term partnerships, you can count on our continued support whenever you need it.
“Smart and reliable automation gives you more time to focus on doing what you love to do.”
OUR EXPERTISE
Since founding Common Sense in 1996, we’ve combined decades of software development expertise with hands-on business management experience to deliver practical solutions for our clients. Our unique background includes:
Software Engineering Excellence
With over 35 years in software development, including extensive work in regulated industries, we understand how to build reliable, maintainable automation solutions that stand the test of time. Many of the automation techniques we recommend are ones we use ourselves, and for custom solutions, we often develop and test them extensively in-house before deployment.
Business Process Optimization
As both consultants and business owners, we’ve refined countless business processes across various industries. We don’t just automate existing workflows—we help identify and eliminate inefficiencies first, ensuring you get the maximum benefit from automation. Our own business serves as a testing ground for many automation strategies, allowing us to understand their practical implications before implementing them for clients.
Small Business Operations
Running our own successful business since 1996 gives us firsthand insight into the challenges you face. We understand the importance of cost-effective solutions that deliver real value and quick returns on investment. This perspective helps us evaluate solutions not just technically, but from a business value standpoint—ensuring that what we propose makes practical sense for your specific situation.
Modern Technology Integration
We continually evaluate and work with leading automation technologies, including:
- Low-code automation platforms
- Generative AI and machine learning
- Cloud-based workflow systems
- Modern APIs and integration services
Our approach combines technical expertise with practical business sense to create solutions that are both powerful and pragmatic. Before deploying any new automation solution, we thoroughly test it in a controlled environment, often using our own business operations as a proving ground. This allows us to identify and resolve potential issues before they affect our clients’ operations.
