Automation: 5 Workflows Every Greek Business Can Implement
Greek SMEs save 15-30 hours per week with automations costing €9-50/month. 5 concrete workflows using Make, n8n, and Zapier covering leads, orders, emails, analytics, and client onboarding.
This is the English version of our business automation guide for Greek SMEs. Workflow 1: Automated lead management from web forms - Make + Google Sheets + Gmail/Slack, 3-5 hours implementation, ROI from a single saved conversion. Workflow 2: E-shop orders to ERP/accounting - n8n + WooCommerce REST API + SoftOne/Epsilon, saves 12.5 hours/month for 50 orders. Workflow 3: Automated email categorization - Gmail API + OpenAI optional, saves 2.5-4 hours/week. Workflow 4: Sales reports and inventory alerts - automatic daily KPI sync to Looker Studio dashboard. Workflow 5: New client onboarding documentation - DocuSign/PandaDoc + Airtable, reduces onboarding from 7-10 days to 2-3 days. Tool comparison: Make (best for most SMEs at €9-16/month), n8n (best for GDPR-sensitive/high-volume, self-hosted at €0), Zapier (best for non-technical users). Implementation cost with agency: €800-2,500 per workflow.
