THE CHALLENGE

Growing organisations often fall into the trap of grabbing one more tool for “that one little issue”—then you get another, and another—until your tech stack resembles a cluttered pot full of disconnected apps, automations and spreadsheets.

We’ve seen this pattern dozens of times:

• Marketing’s lead form doesn’t sync with Sales’ CRM.

• Sales notes in a project board that kind of works.

• Finance keeping invoices in a less-than-secure shared drive.

• Operations constantly pulling data from everywhere.

• And reporting? What should take a day is instead a week or more.

The result: A tangled mess of manual copy-paste, Slack pings, browser tabs, and frustrated staff wondering “where the hell that file went.”

It’s not a tool stack anymore. That's a tool soup.
And your business is drowning in it.

OUR APPROACH

Step 1: Map the Chaos

We always start by laying everything out on the table—every tool, every automation, every hand-off, every “oh yeah, we use that thing too." that you've been relying on every day for the past two years.

Most businesses don’t even realise how many moving parts they’ve accumulated over the years until we show them.

Step 2: Trace the Flow

Then we follow your current processes and data like a detective follows clues.
Where does it enter? Where does it go next? Where does it end? What's the outcome?

Nine times out of ten your tools aren't the issue.

It’s the fact they don't efficiently talk to each other.

Step 3: Consolidate & Simplify

We then identify the overlaps, the redundancies, and “zombie tools” you think are critical but no one actually uses anymore. Then we can design your teams a lean, purpose-built stack that supports the business instead of smothering it.

Preserving the tools you love where we can, while closing the serious gaps in your processes to help your business grow.

Step 4: Automate With Intent

Once we've found all the gaps, and let you know where they are it's time ti build clean, secure, and efficient automation flows. Processes that are owned, monitored, and most importantly fail-safe—so your business isn’t dependent on whoever “set it up two years ago.”

Giving you the best of both worlds, the tools you love to use, and the connectivity your business needs to continue to thrive and grow.

Step 5: Monitor & Improve

A tidy stack today can turn messy tomorrow if it’s left unchecked.
Regular tracking of usage, breakpoints, and overlaps keeps the system sharp and responsive.

We provide you with continuous monitoring and tuning to ensure your stack works with your business—not against it.

THE IMPACT WE SEE

After de-tool souping businesses typically experience:

• 40–70% fewer tools in active use.

• 4x faster workflows with fewer hand-offs and zero tab-hell.

• One source of truth for data, reporting, and decision-making.

• 53% less tool overlap per function

• Resilient automations that don’t crumble the moment someone goes on leave.

• Happier teams who feel like their tools are working with them, not against them.

IT'S TIME TO IMPROVE YOUR PROCESSES

Tool Soup Syndrome isn’t about bad tools.
It’s about what happens when good tools multiply without strategy.

And unlike a single broken system, soup doesn’t explode in one big bang. It leaks silently. It wastes hours quietly. It kills momentum slowly.

The good news?
You don’t need to burn it all down.
You just need to clean the kitchen, simplify the stack, and rebuild with intention.

👉 If your team is living in tab-hell, it might not be your people. It might just be tool soup.
