Do not buy ten subscriptions on day one
A small business usually needs a reliable domain/email setup, a simple site or storefront, bookkeeping, payments and one place to track customer work.

Automate repetitive handoffs
Good early automation targets include contact-form routing, appointment confirmations, invoices, lead follow-up and internal notifications.
