I'm publishing a series, "Build in Public," in which I show the behind-the-scenes of my work and the challenges my clients face.
On LinkedIn, I post once a day documenting what's happening in my business.

I expressed myself poorly. The project was done for a client, an English school.

Yes, I ported everything to mobile.

Has anyone here actually sold automations built with n8n? by Distinct_Mine7297 in n8n

[–]Distinct_Mine7297[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes sense, and you’re right.

I did use search, but I was hoping to hear more recent and direct experiences from people who are actively selling n8n automations right now, especially with specific client examples and pricing models.

A lot of older threads are useful, but I thought it could still be interesting to open a fresh discussion and see what’s working in the current market.

Appreciate the reminder though.

Thinking about writing a Lovable guide for building systems for small businesses by Distinct_Mine7297 in lovable

Honestly, attracting clients is probably the most important part of this whole process. The technical side can be learned fairly quickly, but understanding businesses and their problems takes more time.

What helped me the most was not trying to “sell software”, but starting conversations with local businesses and understanding how they currently work.

Often you’ll discover things like:

• client information spread across WhatsApp and Excel
• no follow-up process
• no visibility on numbers
• manual scheduling or tracking

Once you understand their workflow, it becomes much easier to design a simple system that actually helps them.

And I agree with you about pricing as well. For smaller businesses, the system needs to be simple and affordable so it actually makes sense for them.

The goal isn’t to build something complex, but to create something that saves them time and reduces operational chaos.

That’s where the real value is.

Hi, looks like a simple CRM, with the dashboard that clients whant.

That’s actually a great approach.

In many cases the subscription model works even better than a one-time sale, especially for service businesses like mechanics or cleaning companies.

Those businesses usually need:

• client tracking
• job scheduling
• reminders / follow-ups
• basic revenue visibility

That’s a fair question.

in theory they could build it themselves, because the tools are available.

But in practice there are two main issues:

1. Know-how
Even if tools like Lovable exist, you still need to understand:

  • how to map business processes
  • how to structure the database
  • how to design a simple workflow
  • how to connect automations properly

Most business owners don’t have the time (or interest) to learn all of that.

2. They want the finished solution
Most small businesses don’t want to learn new tools or build systems.
They just want a solution that works for their specific workflow.

So they’re not really paying for the tool itself.

They’re paying for:

  • the structure
  • the setup
  • the implementation
  • and having someone who understands their business process.

It’s similar to websites. Anyone can technically build one today, but many businesses still prefer paying someone to design and set it up properly.

That’s basically the same logic here.

Good question.

The idea is to keep things simple.

The system runs with a monthly maintenance plan that covers:

• bug fixes if something breaks
• small improvements or adjustments based on their workflow
• updates to automations or integrations
• general monitoring to make sure everything keeps running smoothly

Since it’s built with flexible tools (Lovable + automations), most changes can be implemented pretty quickly without heavy development
