THE AUTOMATED HIRING FUNNEL

Get an Army of 1099 commission-only salespeople in weeks with a software to manage them effortlessly.

Of fill any other role in weeks (used with sales, senior developers, markets, attorneys, trucker drivers, even CEO's).

The Automated Hiring System filters out 95% of candidates automatically for you, without reading a single resume, so you can spend your time meeting with the small minority who may be a fit for your needs.

There's a $3,000 setup cost (refunded in full if it doesn't get you results) in which we roll up our sleeves, figure out what you need, and customize every aspect of the "funnel" to your needs, which includes:

1) Posting to get attention
2) Implementing automated systems to track and respond to applicants in a personalized way, despite no API offered by Indeed
3) Adding auto-cancellation criteria to further filter down the end people you meet with

So you end up with ~5% of people appearing in your calendar, with everything you need to know about them in front of you.

This is the result of 6 months of experimentation with Indeed.com that would otherwise cost a company paying a Hiring Manager, CTO, and Automation Engineer for 6 months of experimentation and optimization.

You get it for $3,000 with a refund if it doesn't work for you (it has worked 100% of the time, more than 40 times so far, over a 2 year period).

The 2 Week MVP

I have built 12 Minimum Viable Products in anywhere between 3 days and 3 weeks.

I'm always in search of other Niche Industry problems that software can be used to solve and am happy to connect with anyone that wants to partner to get the right tech solution built quickly.

I'm not looking for Unicorn $1B startup ideas.

I'd prefer a Niche Industry of business customers where we get 100 paying customers at $1,000-$5,000 /month in recurring revenue.

Watch examples below to see the scope so you understand these are not small softwares built.

I've been a Business Analyst 12 years, having gathered 10,000's of Software Product Requirements as a startup founder.

I've been a Chief Product Officer and CTO for 10 years, founding and building from scratch.

To date, I've designed, led, built, and optimized more than 300 SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) modules across many products.

Here are a few of the MVPs (and beyond MVP that I've built):

Trucker Matcher (~1.5 weeks to MVP)
Partner Rally (~2 weeks to MVP)
Lead Bridge (~5 days to MVP)
Easy Work Orders (~3 days to MVP)
Real Estate Showcase (~2 weeks to MVP)
Community Helper (~4 days to MVP)
COVID-19 Marketplace (~3 weeks to MVP)
Commercial Real Estate CRM (~2 weeks to MVP)
U10K - Uber For Freight (~3 weeks to MVP)

If you have a strong network with many industry B2B connections where you see a need that software can fill, reach out, let's chat, and see if there's an opportunity.

Active Shooter Preparedness Online Skill Builder

The only immersive online Active Shooter Prepardness Training made for Enterprise scale rollouts and schools alike.

Customizable to the floor plans, shelter options, rally points, and unique instructions of every unique location.

Interactive, gamified, and trackable by management.

Requires no scheduling, no coordination, and can be rolled out to 10,000 people in days.

Created in conjunction with Alex Killie (former Department of Homeland Security ~5,000 people trained).

Video Testimonial by Joy McIntosh, Assistant Head of School (watch below)
"I would purchase SKILL BUILDER['s Active Shooter training] again without any hesitation.

I really found that this course… really made you THINK… I’ve been in other courses where it’s in person… and the time to really think ‘what would I personally do’ really isn’t possible when you’re all together in one space… because you’re not even in your own space… [this really makes it] what’s true FOR YOU…

A lot of the same messaging was included in the in-person trainings [we’ve done], however… this course makes you think about your specific situation… it’s much more PERSONAL and that’s what I’d say is the biggest difference…

Jeff is fantastic! You send him an email, you get an answer! And if he doesn’t have the answer, he says ‘hang on, I’ll get the answer’… It’s been amazing… the turnaround with any question has been nearly instantaneous, if not right then within that minute, then it’s as soon as he can possibly get the answer to the question.

it was like a One-Stop-Shop, which was really excellent… 

I actually put all of our policies and procedures into the course, so as they were going through the overall course, so they could see as they were going through the course that Yes, we have these in place and here they are in writing… it was Incredible… it made it really useful to our particular school… and it was EASY… it was easy to use, it was easy to fill in… it was seamless… it was… it was excellent."

ACTIVE SHOOTER PREPARATION TRAINING

James Marr, Retired Law Enforcement, High-End Security Professional, Asset Protection, Executive Protection
"the way you have put this training together, I’ve never seen anything like it… it’s a paradigm shift in learning which I’ve never seen before… this is interactive, it tests one’s ability to retain, first understand and then retain… it makes the student think while they have a comfortable safe environment to do so… nothing is guaranteed in an active shooter situation… but if you take this course, you should be able to have some type of fundamental preparation, should an incident occur… as far as a 1-on-1, I believe this is the best you can do"

Burke Slater, 20 Years in Medical Device Big Pharma Sales & Management
"my overall opinion of this training is it’s fantastic, it’s needed… I think everyone is better for having gone through it… I think it’s a fabulous way to train a lot of people at once in an economic fashion… it definitely takes you down the path and keeps you on path and guides you through the whole process from A-Z… Skill Builder takes it to another level… everyone is being coached on the same exact strategies… I couldn’t imagine any other way you could feasibly roll this out to a large number of people… with in-person, the cost would be through the roof…this training is applicable to everyone… if you have 10 people or 100,000, this should be seriously looked at as a way of keeping your people safe… this is invaluable, you can’t put a price on it"

Founder, CEO

Montreal Mini-Storage Group

I spearheaded all technical challenges for Montreal Mini Storage, Quebec's largest provider of self-storage with roughly 7,000 units and 40 employees.

Overall Mandate: Remove technical obstacles and automate as many manual processes as possible to scale. Initially 3 month trial contract, then renewed monthly by CEO (detailed video testimonial below).

To quote Simon, the CEO, 
"It is worth the investment, and then some, to work with someone like Jeff. You really don't realize the amount of money you DON'T make, especially when you don't have the right solutions involved, you don't realize how much of your own time you're wasting, and only after I started working with Jeff did I see the value that was freed up, not just for myself, but the value to not have people working with frustrating technologies that didn't quite fit perfectly. I'm very very pleased with the decision and I would tell my young self that that's one of those things that's certainly worth it... I've always known that when I wanted to make up a good contract I should hire a lawyer... this is something that's no different."

Mandates completed (a few of the 15+), by order of value to the business:
- $25,000+ yearly in perpetuity: Designed, led, developed a custom storage booking system integrated to their existing backend system -> Removing dependency on expensive vendors ($25,000+ yearly in perpetuity)
- $100,000+ & 12+ months: From 3 days of business requirements analysis, I determined that the 6 previous months of development (before I joined) was a waste and avoided the next year of development-> I course-corrected.
- $24,000: Turned a website quoted at $25,000 by a vendor, into a <$1,000 implementation -> Analyzed, removed redundancies, extracted essentials, found a freelancer.
- Automated Google Reviews: Converted a manual review collection for storage locations, into an automated daily running system with no human error (started getting ~50+ Google Reviews /month - Completed within 1 week)

Automation Integrators

We help people and businesses that are highly focused on sales (emphasis on real estate) to maximize their revenue by closing more deals through the incorporation of advanced software automation into every facet of their business, enabling each person to achieve what it would otherwise take 3-5 people to achieve, without working more, and with no learning curve.

Some of our automations are designed for helping a brokerage/agency as a whole, keeping all sales people "on track" and improving global performance, while others are designed to maximize what each person is able to accomplish by automating certain time consuming and repetitive parts that most people find tedious and demotivating to do.

Here are some of our ever-growing list of automations (if you would like to know more about specific ones, just ask):

GLOBAL PERFORMANCE
- The Automated Personal Assistant For Every Agent
- The “Lazy Agent” Lead Reassign
- The Auto-Reassign of Extra Leads
- Auto-Pull New Email Leads Into CRM

INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE
- The Delayed Email Auto-Reply
- The Bad Lead Weed-Out Form
- The Automated Text Message Follow-up Grind

If you have a specific problem you would like us to try to solve through an automated system, let us know and we'll see what we can come up with.

Automation Integration Specialist

I love solving difficult business problems with software.

Want to get my help 1-on-1 by text or video or see more about me?
https://mvpexpert.carrd.co/

Here are some of the 15 complex problems I've solved and I'm always looking for other lucrative ones worth solving.

Each with a 👇 can be seen in more detail in my "Experiences" below.

1) 👇 The Automated Hiring Funnel helps you filter out 95% of candidates who are a waste of your time, so you can focus on the 5% that are viable potentials.

It piggybacks off Indeed.com and has been used to find viable candidates in many roles within a 2 week period. See below for more.

2) 👇 TRUEclaims is a software for Attorneys, Auto Appraisers, Body Shops, and Towing Companies, that generates Diminished Value Reports and Fair Market Value Reports for damaged/totaled vehicles in 1-5 minutes, equivalent to 2-4 hours of manual skilled labor.

I built it with the consulting help of an Auto Adjuster who has assessed over 20,000 vehicles, who spent 15 years trying to automate the process, unsuccessfully. He went through 19 companies, all of which said it was impossible, one of which wanted to charge him $1M to attempt to build it with no timeline provided. I built a working version in less than 1.5 months.

3) I created an Amazon buying and selling software in 2 weeks, that worked, that a company tried to build, unsuccessfully, for $500,000.

4) I created a matching system software to help fight antisemitism, connecting victims to attorneys willing to help pro-bono. This system would have cost $80,000-$100,000 to build. I built it in 1.5 weeks. (this one I did pro-bono)

-----
THE CRITERIA I LOOK FOR IN SOFTWARE TO BUILD

a. A problem that is non-simple with complex requirements that most people would get wrong
b. Where a solution will produce massive value (increased profits, decreased losses, valuable customer insights, huge time saved)
c. Where a single customer would pay at least $1,000 /month for a solution

-----
I've spent a decade trying to find a strong Business Development partner.

If you're a natural salesperson, unrelenting, self-motivated, I'd like to meet you. We'll make a lot of money together.

Jozef Antony Consulting

✔️ I’ve built software development teams from scratch for 10+ companies worldwide
✔️ 3 of my clients’ companies were later acquired by 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗮, 𝗠𝗶𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗼𝗳𝘁, and 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗼𝘁𝗮𝘀𝗸.
✔️ 25+ years of experience in the software development space

Here is a sample breakdown of two projects we have handled:

1:

The client is in the life science industry. We built a software development team from scratch. The software solution helped the company to run and document clinical trials. We acted as an outsourcing partner.

The company was later acquired by Medidata. And later, Medidata was acquired by Dassault Systeme. The team continued to operate and grow to 15-17 developers, testers, DevOps engineers. This partnership lasted for 6 years.

2:

Built a development outsourced team to work on one of the first file-sharing and collaboration platforms in 2005 (like Dropbox or Google Drive). The solution was focused on enterprise customers. They used it for file sharing and backup. It was scaled to 170.000 paying customers. The company was later sold to Autotask and later to Datto.

As an outsourcing partner, we scaled the team to 15-20 developers and testers. Responsible for the application development, testing, hiring developers, and managing day-to-day operations of the development team. We constantly communicate with partners in Denmark and the US. This partnership is still ongoing since its inception in 2005.

👉 4 Main Reasons Why Companies Can’t Build Market-Leading Products:

(𝗜) 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁-𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱: Discovering that you cannot deliver fast enough. Communication friction, misunderstandings, and challenges between engineering, product, and business slow everything down.

(𝗜𝗜) 𝗜𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲: Encountering invisible barriers that hinder your business growth, whether they are technological limitations, inefficient processes, or gaps in team expertise.

(𝗜𝗜𝗜) 𝗢𝗯𝘀𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗲 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝘆: Revamping your technology or product features to stay relevant may require significant resources and time. Focusing on business value helps you navigate these issues easier and faster.

(𝗜𝗩) 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁 𝗙𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲: The alarming possibility that product failures impact not just your customers' operations but also your hard-earned reputation.

Addressing these challenges requires more than just hard work and determination. 

As a Fractional CTO and Product Growth Partner - I help companies to:

✅ Focus on company objectives and align your teams with your big goals - building the wrong thing fast doesn’t bring any value. Focusing on business value constantly is the priority.

✅ Accelerate delivery without compromising quality - the common myth is that this cannot be accomplished; the opposite is true.

✅ Honest communication, even if (especially if) the news is not good. The dynamic business environment needs constant adjustment. Keeping the communication flow open ensures the project focuses on the business value.

✅ Establish a practical timeline through effective project management - mismanagement is a primary cause of software project failures. Keeping all parties in sync, especially key stakeholders, is crucial.

🎯 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝘁:

- I’m still in the trenches (I’m the CTO of Foundation.sk)
- 25+ years of experience in the software development space
- I’ve built software development teams from scratch for 10+ companies worldwide
- 3 of my clients’ companies were acquired by Medidata, Microsoft, and Autotask

Here’s what some of my clients say:

“Jozef and his team have been instrumental in turning our vision into reality, helping us grow confidently.” — Martin Frid-Nielsen, CEO of Soonr, Inc.

“Working with Jozef changed how we approach development, making our efforts more impactful and balanced.” — Janak Mehta, Web Traffic Guy, PREasy.com.
