About

Same face every time.
That's the whole idea.

Most "automation experts" are a contact form, a $5k retainer, and a reply three weeks later from somebody in a city you've never been to. We're the opposite. We're a little one-person studio right here in the QC that builds the exact tool your business needs, explains it in plain English, and hands it right over to you to keep.

Quad City Automations is owned and operated in downtown Rock Island by Doug Jordan: software engineer and business leader with nearly a decade of experience across e-commerce, AI, and scaling startups.

How we work

No jargon, no lock-in, no surprises.

One fixed price, up front

You'll know the whole cost before we start a thing. No hourly meter ticking, no surprise invoices later. Just one number and exactly what it gets you.

Plain English, always

I'll tell you what I'm building and why, in words that actually make sense. You'll never have to nod along and pretend you followed it.

You own it

Everything gets built on the tools you already use. No weird platform of mine, no lock-in, and no being stuck paying a monthly retainer to keep it running.

Local and easy to reach

I'm a real person right here in the Quad Cities. Give me a call or grab a coffee with me in Bettendorf. You won't be stuck in some ticket queue overseas.

Free audit, no pressure

The 30-minute audit is genuinely free, no strings. Worst case, you walk away with a handful of ideas you could even run with yourself.

I stick around

I keep an eye on everything I build and fix any hiccups fast. Want ongoing help as your business grows and changes? That's there too.

Why I started this

Good local businesses shouldn't drown in busywork.

AI finally got good enough that the stuff which used to cost a fortune and take an agency weeks can now be built by one skilled person, fast and for a fair price. Folks running small businesses around here deserve a shot at that too, without the big enterprise price tag or a pile of jargon. So that's what I do. I find the repetitive work eating up your week, automate the piece that saves you the most for one fixed price, and leave you owning something that just quietly hums along in the background.

Let's see what we could automate for you. On me.
