Running a small business today means wearing a lot of hats. You’re liable for managing operations, sales, hiring, and customer service—and somewhere in the middle of all that, you’re expected to grow. That’s why business automation is such a powerful tool. It helps you take repetitive work off your plate so you can focus on what really matters for you and your business.
But here’s the truth: business automation isn’t always easy to implement, especially for small businesses. Many run into roadblocks, not because they don’t see the value, but because they don’t know where to start or how to get it right.
So in this blog, we’re gonna talk about the top three Business automation challenges most small businesses face—and how GoSMarTea, a practical and simple automation tool built by Goanny, can help solve them.
Why is Business Automation Important?
We all believe that automation is the heartbeat of business growth. This might not be the picture 10-15 years back, when mostly businesses used to handle all their operations manually. But now, this is the truth: if your business is not automated, you might fall far behind in the competitive market. That’s why many large-scale businesses shifted to automation very quickly. However, for small businesses with a limited scope of growth, it often becomes one of the most difficult aspects to diversify. With small budgets, small teams, and ever-evolving customer behavior, business automation can quickly feel like a lot.
Here are 3 Automation Challenges that you should think of before automating your business.
Challenge 1: Lack of Knowledge and Technical Expertise
This is the most expected and common challenge faced by a small business owner: Lack of Technical Knowledge. Small business owners are experts in their field—whether it’s retail, hospitality, health, or professional services—but they’re not necessarily tech-savvy. Many of them don’t even think of building a website for their business, automation is a way too techy for them. And this common problem leads to:
- A lot of Confusion about which tasks can be automated
- They don’t know what to do, what not to do
- Fear of breaking existing business
- Dependency on external consultants (which can be costly)
- Delayed adoption due to decision paralysis
To sum up, automation feels overwhelming.
