  • Survive & Thrive: Why Business Automation is Your Competitive Advantage
    2025/11/27

    Is your business ready for what's next? Business automation isn't just a nice-to-have - it's the difference between surviving and thriving in today's competitive landscape.

    With over 30 years in business transformation, Rob breaks down exactly what automation means for mid-market organizations, why it matters more than ever, and how to implement it without breaking your budget or losing your team.

    What You'll Learn:

    • Discover practical business automation examples from electric bikes to inventory management that you can implement
    • Why the "automation is too expensive" myth is costing you money—Forbes research shows automated companies are 6x more likely to achieve 15% growth, while Forrester reports 3.2x growth over industry peers
    • Hear how one business owner went from manually approving 400+ invoices every Friday night to automated three-way matching that saved hundreds of hours
    • Learn why your e-commerce side hustle could crater overnight without proper automation—and what "future-fit" businesses do differently
    • Hear about the poultry factory that used AI in the 1990's before it was cool—proof that smart automation has been delivering ROI for decades
    • Three myths holding businesses back: cost concerns, job displacement fears, and the dangerous "everything's working fine" mindset
    • Rob's proven automation framework: identify repetitive tasks, understand conditions, build the business case, and match to strategy
    • The purchase-to-pay automation roadmap: from purchase orders through to supplier payments with built-in exception handling
    • Why you need to "step rather than run"— to deliver sustainable results without overwhelming your team
    • The warehouse wake-up call: why you can't automate a mess (and what to do about it first)
    • Real audience Q&A covering robot data integration, motivating resistant staff, construction industry applications, accounts payable automation, and stock replenishment strategies

    Key Insight: Rob's "future-fit" philosophy is about technology that evolves with the world around you while enabling you to build scalable processes that let you grow 2x, 3x, even 100x without proportionally growing your back office.

    Featured Stories:

    • The MD who wanted to approve everything (until he didn't)
    • The manufacturing company walking downstairs to check stock after every order
    • The Xero/Cin7 rounding problem that cascaded through an entire businesses

    From running a warehouse, managing a construction company, de-boning in food production, or scaling an e-commerce operation, this episode provides a practical roadmap to implement business process automation that delivers measurable ROI.

  • Scaling from $20M to $100M: The ERP Advantage for Mid-Market Leaders
    2025/11/12

    Every growing business eventually hits a wall — the point where manual processes, disconnected systems, and constant workarounds start to suffocate growth. In this episode of ERP Unlocked, Rob Sheldrick explains why mid-market companies that rely on “best-of-breed” software stacks often struggle to scale efficiently, and how an integrated ERP system changes the game.

    Drawing from decades of experience helping finance and operations teams modernise their systems, Rob explores the business case for unified ERP platforms. He breaks down how an ERP solution connects every part of your business — from finance and procurement to inventory, sales, and customer service — into one seamless workflow that grows with you.

    This discussion is essential listening for finance leaders, CFOs, COOs, and business owners of companies in the $10M–$100M range who are frustrated by the high cost of scaling. Rob unpacks how automation and integration deliver tangible benefits across the organisation:

    • Finance automation: Real-time reporting, automated accounts payable (AP) and accounts receivable (AR) processing, and faster month-end closes.
    • Operational efficiency: Reduced duplication, cleaner data, and improved visibility across departments.
    • Strategic scalability: The ability to add customers, products, and revenue streams without the cost of adding more administrative staff.
    • Interoperability: Why robust systems help you to be taken seriously as a supplier to the likes of Coles or Woolworths.

    Regardless of your industry, if your business growth is currently limited by manual data entry, spreadsheet chaos, or disconnected systems, this episode will show you how to shift gears. You’ll hear real-world examples of companies that freed their teams from transactional work by consolidating their systems — and how that decision became the catalyst for sustained, scalable growth.

    Whether you call it ERP, business management software, or a fully integrated business system, the outcome is the same: better decisions, faster execution, and a foundation that supports your next stage of growth.
