The Sparked Group · AI implementation & automation
Put AI to work across your business.
We build and run AI workflows that connect your systems, reduce manual work and help your teams get more done. Across marketing, sales, customer service, reporting and internal operations, we start with the work that needs improving.
Start with one workflow. Build around the systems you already use.
The work between the tools
Your systems hold the data. Your people still join the dots.
Copying updates between systems. Chasing the next step. Rebuilding the weekly report. AI becomes useful when it takes that work off your team's hands, with clear rules for when a person needs to step in.
Connect
Work moves between teams
Link the systems and handovers that currently depend on someone remembering to do them.
Automate
Routine tasks take less time
Prepare the update, gather the context and route the request. Keep human review where it matters.
Adopt
Your team knows how to use it
Build around real working habits, with training, a named owner and support after launch.
What we build
Start where the work gets stuck.
We design, build and support workflows for the people using them. These are the kinds of work we can help you improve.
Revenue & customers
Make the next step happen
Enquiry routing, account research, follow-up preparation and customer handovers, connected to your CRM.
From a useful first workflow to a team that can rely on it.
One team stays with you through planning, delivery and adoption. We agree what success means before the build, then review what changes in practice.
01
Assess and plan
Map the task, systems, people and constraints. Choose a first workflow with a clear owner, baseline and agreed scope.
02
Build and connect
Develop the workflow in your environment. Test real scenarios, permissions and exceptions with the people who will use it.
03
Embed and improve
Train the team, monitor the work and review the results. Agree ongoing support and expand when the first workflow earns it.
A workflow example · customer enquiries
The enquiry arrives. The right person gets the context.
An incoming request can trigger a check of the customer record, a short summary and a suggested response. The workflow routes it to the right person and records what happened.
The workflow handles
Gathering the relevant information from approved systems
Preparing a summary and suggested next step
Routing the request and logging the activity
Your people decide
Which information and systems it can access
What needs approval before anything is sent
How exceptions are handled and success is measured
Illustrative workflow. The tools, permissions and approval steps are agreed for each engagement.
Explore the work
See what it looks like in practice.
Our most developed examples are in revenue operations, reporting and internal tools. Explore the interfaces and approach, then talk through what would fit your business.
We design, build and support AI workflows and internal tools that connect business systems and reduce manual work. Planning, implementation and team adoption are part of the same engagement.
Do we need to replace our existing systems?
We start with the systems you already use. The assessment checks data quality, access and integration options before we recommend what to connect or change.
How do you keep people in control?
We agree permissions, approval steps, escalation rules and a named owner for each workflow. Testing, activity records and monitoring are part of the delivery plan.
What happens after launch?
We agree training, documentation, monitoring and ongoing support as part of the scope. Ownership, hosting, third-party software and AI usage costs are made clear before work starts.
How do we get started?
Select a time to discuss the work you want to improve. You can also send a short brief through Find your starting point. We review it personally and suggest the next step.
What work would you improve first?
Bring one process, one bottleneck or one idea. We will help you find a practical starting point.

The Sparked Group · Products · Orbitable.ai · Live
Strategy to pipeline, automated.
Orbitable is the agentic go-to-market command centre. 52 agents across 10 specialist squads research, write, launch and report, with approvals where they matter and autonomy where they don't. Your team keeps the judgement. The platform does the legwork.
Not another point tool. Orbitable replaces the stack of twelve with squads that share one plan, one data spine and one definition of the truth.
The roster
10 specialist squads
Strategy, ICP and segmentation, content, brand, paid, ABM, SDR, RevOps, customer success and reporting. Each squad runs as a coordinated unit.
The workflow
Strategy to pipeline
From market research and ICP definition through content and outreach to deal scoring and forecast. One connected workflow, one version of the truth.
The plumbing
MCP-native
Every agent is callable from Claude, ChatGPT, or your Make and n8n stack through Orbitable's MCP server. Bring your tools, plug in the agents.
How it works
Three moves from brief to pipeline.
01
Tell it what you sell, to whom, and why
A short onboarding captures your ICP, positioning and goals. The Strategy squad turns it into a plan.
02
Squads pick up the work
Content, paid, SDR, ABM, RevOps. Each squad executes against the plan, coordinated by the orchestrator. Approvals where they matter, autonomy where they don't.
03
Your CRM fills, your forecast sharpens
Pipeline appears. Signals route to your team with full context. The system learns and improves with each cycle.
Run on our own engine
The machinery underneath the service
Orbitable is the five-phase engine from our automation practice, productised. We run The Sparked Group's own go-to-market on it every day. When you buy the service, this is what's working underneath.
Most teams have most of the parts. Almost no one has the system. We listen, diagnose, design your engine, then build and run it. Websites, internal apps and agent integrations ship as part of the engine, from the same team, in the same room, on the same hook.
Buyers changed how they buy. Most engines didn't keep up.
Three shifts, measured by the people who track this for a living. Together they are why a revenue engine now has to run across the whole journey, not just chase leads at the top.
94%
of B2B buyers now do their research through AI tools, peers and communities, before they ever land on your website.
Forrester / 6sense, 2026
13 people
sit on the average B2B buying decision, across two departments. One rep can't reach all of them. An engine can.
Forrester · Buying Groups
2.3×
more deals close when marketing and sales work from the same buyer insight, instead of two versions of the truth.
Gartner
The biggest software platforms now teach this exact playbook from the main stage: audit the workflow, join up the data, put AI agents on it one stage at a time. We agree with all of it. The difference is simple. They sell you the software. We are the team that makes it run, inside whatever stack you already own.
What we see, every time
Most teams have pieces. Not a system.
A serious business, with serious tools, running a thousand small efforts that never compound. We open the bonnet, you nod a lot. The question is not whether to fix it. The question is which version of the engine fits where you are now.
Sales and marketing
Run as separate kingdoms. Pipeline is a hope, not a forecast.
Your CRM
A graveyard. Tools do not talk. Records do not flow. Reporting cannot be trusted.
AI inside the team
A slide deck, not a system. Promised everywhere, embedded nowhere.
Brand and demand
The brand looks fine. The demand is broken. Buyers do not remember you the week after.
Your team
Sharp, senior, working flat out. The engine they sit inside is not.
Last quarter's win
Cannot be repeated. Because no one wrote down how it actually happened.
Two pillars, one team
An engine that is built. And led.
Two halves of the same offer. Most teams need both. We deliver both, from one operator group, on one number.
Revenue Automation
The engine, built in five phases.
Brand, content, demand, CRM, AI, automation, fused into one system that compounds. We start where you are and walk you up the ladder, one phase at a time. The work shipped is the deliverable.
Strategy, design, and build, by the same operators
Sequenced so each phase pays for the next
Outputs are working systems, not slideware
Fractional Leadership
Lead the engine.
Senior CRO and CMO leadership embedded in your team. Not an agency at arm's length. Part of how you operate.
Fractional CRO and CMO, hands on the work
Embedded weekly cadence, in your stack
Board-ready commercial reporting
How we work
A custom plan, walked together. No template fitting.
Four steps before any scope, quote, or contract. The diagnosis itself is the deliverable. If we are not the right team afterwards, you keep it.
01
We listen.
An honest conversation, not a discovery deck. Goals, constraints, where it has been quietly stuck for a year. No pitch.
02
We diagnose.
We map the engine you have today against the engine your goals need: where the leaks are, where the quick wins are, and where to start.
03
We design.
Your engine, sized to your motion and your stage. Sequenced so each step pays for the next. No deck-ware.
04
We build and run.
We implement, we operate, we report. The same people who designed it. Strategy you can ship. Execution that knows why.
What sits inside the engine
One engine. Many parts.
We are not a single-channel shop. The whole point is the parts moving together. Below is the surface area. The combination, sequence, and weighting are designed for you, not borrowed from a deck.
Brand and positioning
That buyers actually remember. The work behind the line.
Content and authority
Point of view, delivered on cadence, distributed where it lands.
Demand and pipeline
Engineered demand, multi-channel. So pipeline stops depending on one heroic founder.
CRM and lifecycle
Records that flow. Stages that mean something. Reporting your board reads.
AI inside the system
Embedded into the work, not bolted on. Working for the team, not replacing it.
Fractional leadership
A senior CRO or CMO inside your team. Same operators as the build. Skin in the game.
The ladder we walk together
Five phases. One engine.
Foundation to Agentic. Each phase is a complete delivery scope that earns the next one. We start where you are, not where a deck wishes you were.
01
Foundation
Lay the groundwork.
The platform every later phase will hang off. Strategy first, plumbing second, polish third. We get the basics right before we get clever, because the clever does not work without them.
02
Signal
You see who is in market.
Intent, behaviour and product signals wired into the record. Tools start talking. Reporting begins to mean something. The team stops being the integration layer.
03
Orchestration
One motion, logged.
What happens on a signal, in what order, by whom. AI drafts next to the team, judgment stays human, and every step gets logged. AI stops being slideware and starts being where the work happens.
04
Scale
Every cycle compounds.
Repeatability takes over. Each completed cycle makes the next one cheaper, faster and better, and the playbook stops living in one person's head.
05
Agentic
Self-optimising.
The engine runs 24/7 inside the guardrails you set. Your team operates above it, not inside it. The leader gets the night back.
The full surface area
Acquisition is half the story.
A real revenue engine works on both sides of the close. Before, during, and long after. Each phase of the ladder operates across the full bowtie, not just the front.
→
Acquisition
First touch. Earn the right to be considered.
→
Conversion
Become the choice. Earn the close.
●
Onboard
First value. Earn the second renewal.
→
Expansion
Compound. Earn more from the buyer who chose you.
→
Advocacy
Word of mouth, engineered. Buyers become introducers.
All five phases operate across all five stages
How working with us actually feels
Inside your team, on your tools, on the same number.
Not an agency. Not a consultancy. Not an implementation shop. We sit between all three. Senior operators, hands on the work, accountable to the result.
Weekly
In your room.
In your Slack, on your standup, in your forecast call. Not a status report once a month.
Working in your CRM, your dashboards, your forecast view. Not over email.
With your team
Coaching alongside.
Manage your reps and marketers directly when needed. Hire alongside you. Coach the bench.
Three ways to start
Pick the door. We meet you there.
Different businesses need different first steps. Each of these is a real engagement, not a sales funnel.
Mode 01
Diagnose.
Two to four weeks. We map your engine, name what is broken, recommend where to start. The diagnosis is the deliverable. You keep it whether you work with us afterwards or not.
A clean read on the engine
Mode 02
Design and build.
A focused project, a defined scope. We design the engine and ship the first phase. You hand it off to your team or hand it back to us to operate.
A working system on day one
Mode 03
Run it with you.
Ongoing operating partnership. We hold the design, ship every phase, sit in the room. Quarterly resets, monthly reviews, weekly cadence. Skin in the game.
A team inside your team
What you walk away with
A revenue engine that compounds.
A sales engine that runs every week, not every campaign.
A marketing system with a point of view buyers remember.
AI inside the work. Not slideware on the side.
A CRM your team trusts and a forecast you can defend.
Senior leadership in the room. Not advising from afar.
A motion the next hire can step into without losing the thread.
Why us
Strategy. And execution. Same team.
Most agencies hand over a deck. Most consultants hand over a slide. Most implementation shops hand over a config. None of those, on their own, build a revenue engine.
We do the strategy and the build. Senior commercial thinking sat next to the people writing the workflows, the prompts, the agent code, the posts, the brand system, and the dashboards. One team. Same room. Same accountability.
We are operators who built this exact engine for ourselves first. Three live products, a group, a podcast in the works, ABM running daily. We do not theorise.
Strategy you can ship. Execution that knows why.
A filter, not a sales line
Who this is not for.
If you want a deck, hire a strategy consultant. They are very good at decks.
If you want hands without strategy, hire a generalist agency. They will execute the brief you give them.
If you want tools without operators, hire a HubSpot or Salesforce implementation partner. They will configure beautifully.
If you want a programme to fit yourself into, that is not the work. Templates do not compound.
If you want all three, strategy, hands, and operators, in one team that owns the number, that is what we do.
Ready to build the engine?
Start with a conversation. We will tell you what we see and where we would start.
Connect your systems, automate routine tasks and give your team a clear way to review the work. We assess the process, build the workflow and support its use, starting with a scope you can measure.
Built around your business
Useful automation starts with the workflow.
An enquiry waiting for an owner. A report assembled by hand. A handover missing the context. We identify the steps that can be automated, the decisions that need a person and the systems that need to connect.
Access, data quality and integration options shape the delivery plan. We agree ownership, monitoring, support and ongoing software costs before work starts.
The delivery plan
A clear route from first workflow to daily use.
Scope and timing agreed after assessment
Assess the workflow
Map the task with its owner. Check the systems, permissions, data and exceptions, then agree the first workflow and how to measure it.

Defined tasks. Clear human decisions.
Scout
Research agent
Reads a target account's site, news and hiring overnight. Writes the one-page brief your team reads before the call.
Your team decideswhich sources to trust and how to use the brief.
Concierge
Inbound agent
Answers inbound in your voice, qualifies against your rules, books the meeting into the right diary. Humans see every transcript.
Your team decideswhat can be sent automatically and what needs review.
Sweeper
Hygiene agent
Dedupes the CRM, chases stale deals for updates, flags records that stopped being true. The graveyard stays a garden.
Your team decideswhich record changes can run and which need approval.
An application in revenue operations
Connect the customer journey beyond the sale.
Revenue is one area where connected workflows can help across teams. This map shows the stages from finding a customer to supporting them after the sale. We choose the starting point around your needs.

Right wing · where compounding lives
Onboarding, retention, expansion, advocacy. The half most teams never automate, and where agents quietly do their best work: health scoring, renewal nudges, QBR prep, advocacy asks.
What we check first
Know what the workflow can rely on.
We check the data, existing automations and ownership before adding anything new. That includes conflicting rules, unused fields, permissions and the exceptions your team handles today. The findings shape the build plan.
The audit is the first task of every engagement.Tell us where work gets stuck and which systems you use.
Illustrative assumptions: 35% of enquiries qualify, 20% of those become deals, and automation increases that deal count by 15%. The model uses 12 months of enquiries and recovers 60% of weekly admin time across 52 weeks. These are planning scenarios, not measured results or a forecast. Revenue excludes delivery, software and operating costs; this is not a profit or ROI calculation.

Start with one useful workflow.
Talk through the task, the people involved and what a useful improvement would look like.
Bespoke internal apps, built around your workflow and wired into your stack. Ask your CRM questions in plain English. Reporting that writes itself. Copilots for the work your team repeats every week. Ownership, hosting and any third-party costs are agreed as part of the scope.
Built for teams like yours
Four apps we build again and again.
We start with a prototype your team can try, then test it against real tasks before launch. Scope, access and data readiness determine the schedule.
CRM chat
Talk to your CRM
“Which accounts went quiet this quarter, and who owns them?”
An AI chat interface over HubSpot, Salesforce or Attio. Plain-English questions, real answers from your live data, actions with an audit trail.

Buyers may start their research in AI chats, communities and feeds, but they end on your website. It is where credibility is checked, prices are found and forms are filled. The design decides before your copy is ever read.

Why this exists
Real help. Not a funnel.
Most “AI training” is a landing page with a lesson bolted on. This is the opposite. We teach the thinking and what good looks like, generously and in full, so you can make AI work in your business and spot when it is done well.
01
Best practices, in plain English
Every guide answers a real question a person, or an AI, would actually ask. Short, specific, and written so a non-technical leader gets it first time.
02
Learn to spot good work
The fastest way to get value from AI is knowing what “good” looks like. You will learn to brief it like a new hire, check its output, and keep a human on the loop.
03
A medal that means something
Finish a level, pass a short check, earn a medal with its own verification page. It is tied to real work you produced, not attendance.
Where is the catch? There is not one. We teach you to be a sharp buyer and a safe user of AI. When you want an agent fleet designed, built and run inside your stack, that is our day job and the natural next step. The learning is yours to keep either way.
Track 1 · AI Foundations · Free

01Overview. Weighted forecast, quarter to target, coverage, and the deals that need attention today.
02Pipeline. Every open opportunity, its qualification gates, its activity and the campaign that created it.
03Forecast. Commit, best case and weighted read against the same target, with stage conversion behind them.
04Campaigns. Spend, response and the pipeline that followed, down to ad sets and sequence steps.
05Channels. Six channels carried all the way through to closed revenue, with a conversion matrix.
06Source detail. Grouped by utm_source, medium, campaign or content, and first touch set against last touch.
07Outbound agent. A live activity feed, the guardrails it works inside, and its signal radar.
08Accounts. Fit against engagement, buying group coverage, and the pipeline sitting behind a thin group.
09System health. The eight checks feeding all of it, with an outage drill you can set off yourself.

On the data. Every figure in the demo comes from a seeded generator. Company names are assembled from two invented word lists, the people are drawn from invented name pools, and no client record of any kind was used to build it. Any resemblance to a real organisation is coincidental.
