EasyScalers Announces New Discovery-First Framework to Help Small Businesses Avoid AI Automation Failures

The Automation Trap: Why Good Intentions Lead to Shelf-ware Most small business automation projects follow a predictable pattern: a founder gets excited about efficiency gains, hires an agency or buys a tool, invests weeks in setup, and then six months later, nobody's using the system. The automation sits there, technically functional but practically useless, while the team reverts to their old manual processes. Xavier Tai has seen this story play out dozens of times. After 15 years working with enterprise companies like Disney and Sony, then transitioning to building automation systems for small and midsize businesses, he recognized the pattern immediately. The problem isn't the technology. It's the approach. "Most automation projects fail because they start with the wrong question," Xavier explains. "Agencies ask 'what can we automate?' when they should be asking 'what's actually costing you time and money?' Those are very different conversations." Why the Traditional Automation Approach Breaks Down The typical automation sales process looks impressive: dashboards, integrations, AI-powered tools, and promises of 10x efficiency. But it's built backward. Here's what usually happens: an automation provider shows up with their preferred tech stack, demonstrates what's possible, and builds something that looks sophisticated on paper. The problem? It doesn't match how the business actually operates. Xavier points to three critical failures in the standard approach: Impressiveness, not adoption : Complex systems with beautiful interfaces that require extensive training. Teams look at it once, feel overwhelmed, and go back to their spreadsheets. Starting with tools, not problems : The conversation begins with "we can connect your CRM to your email platform" rather than "where are you actually losing deals?" Skipping the discovery phase : Without mapping real workflows and identifying actual bottlenecks, automation becomes a solution searching for a problem. The result? Businesses invest thousands of dollars and countless hours into systems that technically work but practically fail because nobody uses them. The Enterprise-Simple Framework: What Actually Works Xavier's approach, refined through years of enterprise experience and distilled for small business implementation, follows what he calls the "Enterprise-Simple Framework." This is a four-stage methodology that ensures automation actually gets adopted. Map the Real Workflow Before any automation gets built, Xavier's team documents how work actually flows through the business. Not how the org chart says it should work, but how it really happens. This reveals the hidden inefficiencies that founders have stopped noticing because they've become routine. Identify Revenue Bottlenecks Not all inefficiencies are worth automating. Xavier focuses on the bottlenecks that directly impact revenue: slow lead response times that lose deals, manual proposal generation that delays closing, scattered onboarding processes that hurt retention. "We calculate exactly what each bottleneck costs in terms of time and lost revenue," Xavier notes. "Once founders see that their manual proposal process is costing them 15 hours weekly and probably $10K in delayed deals, the ROI becomes obvious." Design for Invisibility The best automation doesn't feel like automation. It just makes existing processes work better. Xavier designs systems that integrate naturally into how teams already operate, requiring minimal training and zero disruption. "If your team needs a manual to use the automation, I've failed," Xavier says. "The goal is for systems to be so intuitive that adoption happens within the first week, not the first quarter." Measure What Matters Every automation project includes clear metrics: hours reclaimed, response time improvements, proposal generation speed. Not vanity metrics that look good in reports, but real operational improvements that founders can see in their daily work. Why Enterprise Experience Actually Helps Small Businesses Xavier's background building systems for large corporations might seem irrelevant to small business needs, but it's actually his competitive advantage. He learned what works at scale, then stripped away the complexity. "At Disney and Sony, I watched teams over-engineer solutions because they could," Xavier explains. "Small businesses can't afford that luxury. They need systems that work immediately and scale efficiently. That constraint actually produces better automation." His enterprise training taught him systematic thinking: how to map complex workflows, identify failure points, and design resilient systems. His small business experience taught him simplicity: how to deliver those same results without the corporate overhead. Real Results from the Right Approach The impact of this discovery-first methodology is measurable. Xavier's clients typically reclaim 15-30 hours weekly by automating the right tasks. Lead response times that previously took 24 hours now happen in under 5 minutes. Proposal generation that consumed entire afternoons completes automatically while founders stay focused on sales. But the most telling metric is adoption. When automation is designed around actual workflows rather than impressive features, teams use it immediately. No extensive training periods, no gradual rollouts, no abandoned systems gathering digital dust. "We measure success by whether teams are still using the automation six months later," Xavier notes. "If they are, we did our job right. If they're not, the problem was our approach, not their follow-through." The Competitive Advantage: Automation That Actually Works As more small businesses recognize the need for automation, the winners won't be those with the most sophisticated systems. They'll be the ones whose automation actually gets used. Xavier's advice for founders considering automation is direct: "Before you buy any tool or hire any agency, ask them to walk through your actual workflows with you. If they skip straight to showing you their tech stack, that's a red flag. Discovery should come before demos, always." For businesses ready to implement automation that actually delivers results, the Enterprise-Simple Framework offers a proven path: map the real workflow, identify revenue bottlenecks, design for adoption, and measure what matters.

Tanjong Malim Emerges as Malaysia’s Next Strategic Hub for Data Centre Growth

Malaysia’s Data Centre Expansion Drives Demand for New Strategic Development Zones Malaysia’s rapid push into hyperscale and AI‑ready infrastructure continues to reshape the nation’s digital and industrial landscape. Recent government statements highlight unprecedented investment momentum, growing energy and sustainability requirements, and emerging concerns over speculative data centre capacity nationwide. These developments are now driving investors and operators to seek new locations that can support long‑term, resource‑secure, next‑generation data centre ecosystems. Within this changing landscape, Tanjong Malim—situated at the Perak-Selangor border—has begun to stand out. Only 1 hour and 15 minutes from Kuala Lumpur, the region is strengthening its position as Malaysia’s next major high‑technology corridor. Its rise is amplified by the transformation of Proton City into an integrated automotive and advanced manufacturing valley, anchored by Proton (49% owned by Geely) and the upcoming BYD manufacturing facility. The government expects up to 50,000 workers and families to relocate to the wider Tanjong Malim area as part of this long‑term expansion. National Trends Are Redefining What Makes a Data Centre Location Viable Recent briefings from the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA) confirm that the nation’s surge in hyperscale capacity is aimed at enabling AI-driven manufacturing, digital twins, predictive maintenance, and real‑time supply chain optimisation—critical components of Industry 4.0. This infrastructure is particularly important for SMEs, enabling them to access advanced digital capabilities at lower capital cost. At the same time, the government has raised concerns about existing data centres consuming less than half their declared power capacity, prompting a recalibration of energy provisioning to reduce stranded asset risks. The move signals an industry shift towards locations capable of demonstrating realistic demand, resource security, and long-term scalability—not merely speculative intent. Water resource stability has also become a strategic differentiator. The recent Johor water disruption, which temporarily affected over one million consumers, has reinforced the importance of reliable water supply for cooling-heavy data centre operations. Analysts note that operators may face rising costs if forced to increase on‑site water redundancy. The search for resource-secure, non‑speculative, forward‑compatible locations has therefore intensified. Why Tanjong Malim Is Quietly Emerging as a Prime Data Centre Frontier With these national dynamics in play, Tanjong Malim offers a combination rarely found elsewhere: abundant water sources, strong grid access, planned renewable energy integration, and rising economic gravity due to the Advanced High‑Tech Valley (AHTV) initiative. Key regional advantages include: • Proximity to Kuala Lumpur (1h15m drive), the country’s commercial epicentre • Strategic position between Perak and Selangor, giving regulatory and infrastructural flexibility • Emerging high‑technology ecosystem anchored by Proton, Geely, and BYD • Expected inflow of tens of thousands of skilled workers into the region • Multiple river systems and water catchment areas, supporting cooling needs • Growing demand for compute infrastructure from new EV, battery, and automotive R&D clusters In this context, Sungai Samak Estate—located within Tanjong Malim—has gained attention as one of the few zones capable of supporting a scalable, integrated, next generation data centre campus. Sungai Samak Estate: Five Strategic Plots Positioned for the Data Centre Revolution Five contiguous land plots within Sungai Samak Estate are now being highlighted by industry observers and investors assessing future-ready digital infrastructure locations. Full details are available at https://sgsamak.com , with enquiries directed to https://sgsamak.com/contact-us . These plots offer several characteristics that meet the industry’s emerging requirements: • Large-scale contiguity suitable for hyperscale or multi-building campuses • Abundant water access from surrounding rivers and natural catchment areas • Potential for onsite renewable energy generation, supporting upcoming carbon reporting obligations • Proximity to major transport corridors, including the North-South Expressway • Strong alignment with government policy direction regarding sustainable data centre development • Close access to the AHTV workforce, including EV manufacturing, engineering talent, and R&D specialists These attributes position Sungai Samak Estate as a compelling candidate for operators seeking to build Malaysia’s next-generation data centre infrastructure—particularly as national guidelines evolve to address carbon intensity, demand realism, and resource security. Sustainability Pressures Are Accelerating the Shift Toward Renewable‑Capable Data Centre Sites Malaysia’s commitment to net zero by 2050, along with the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR), means future data centre approvals will increasingly prioritise renewable integration, efficient cooling solutions, and transparent carbon reporting. By 2026, the introduction of carbon pricing for specific sectors will indirectly influence how data centres design, power, and cool their facilities. Locations that can support renewable energy, implement low‑carbon operations, and avoid resource vulnerability will become disproportionately valuable. The Sungai Samak plots, with the potential for onsite solar and access to substantial water reserves, align with these emerging regulatory imperatives—providing strategic insulation from the risks now surfacing in oversaturated hubs. The Rise of Tanjong Malim and the Future of Malaysia’s Digital Backbone As Malaysia positions itself as Southeast Asia’s rising data centre destination, industry momentum is shifting toward locations that combine scalability, stability, and sustainability. Tanjong Malim’s transformation into an advanced high‑technology valley—fuelled by automotive innovation and supported by national policy—is accelerating this shift. With its strategic location, integrated infrastructure potential, and strong alignment with the next phase of Malaysia’s digital development, Sungai Samak Estate stands poised to play a central role in the nation’s data centre revolution.

BeFound Social CEO Announces Industry Shift: AI to Split Marketing Agencies Into Two Groups

The Future of Marketing Agencies According to Muhammad Maarij Zeeshan, founder and CEO of BeFound Social LLC, a marketing agency specializing in AI-powered solutions for B2B companies globally, the traditional marketing agency model is at risk of becoming obsolete within the next 36 months. In his recent analysis, Zeeshan explains that AI will not eliminate marketing agencies entirely, but rather push them toward two distinct paths: automation-intensive or production-intensive. The Industry Divide: Automation-Intensive vs. Production-Intensive Zeeshan highlights that the future of marketing agencies hinges on their ability to adapt. Agencies that attempt to be generalists offering a broad range of services will struggle to keep up with automation. Those that fail to choose a clear path could find themselves outpaced by more specialized firms. "The traditional SMMA model is dead," Zeeshan states. "Agencies will either become automation-intensive leveraging AI to run marketing at scale or production-intensive, focusing on what AI can't do yet, like mass creative production and personal branding. There's no middle ground anymore." The Two Paths Forward According to Zeeshan's analysis, the marketing industry is splitting into two distinct categories: Automation-Intensive Agencies: These firms use AI-powered tools to handle lead qualification, nurturing, and conversion at scale. They build systems that run 24/7 without constant manual intervention, operating as complete marketing departments rather than specialists. Production-Intensive Agencies: These agencies focus on creative output AI cannot replicate high-touch personal branding, mass creative production for platforms like TikTok and Instagram, and strategic consulting that requires human intuition and relationship building. "Businesses don't need 'a Facebook ads person' anymore," Zeeshan explained. "They need a flywheel running on autopilot. The ad copy matches the landing page, the landing page triggers the right automation, the automation routes to the right person, the follow-up happens in minutes not days. One gap in that system and you're leaking money." Real-World Application: The Full-Stack Model BeFound Social represents the automation-intensive path. The agency has built what Zeeshan calls a "full-stack marketing department" model integrating advertising, AI-powered automation workflows, CRM systems, and content strategy into unified systems for B2B service companies, coaches, and agencies. Unlike traditional agencies that specialize in one element and force clients to coordinate between multiple freelancers, BeFound Social owns the entire funnel from traffic source to closed deal. "Most businesses still hire like it's 2015," Zeeshan noted. "A copywriter here, a designer there, a Facebook ads person, maybe an automation consultant. They end up with five freelancers who've never spoken to each other, systems that don't talk, and a funnel with twelve different leak points." The results speak to the model's effectiveness. BeFound Social has generated over $2 million in enterprise value for clients across 10+ countries, delivering measurable success for businesses in various industries without relying on venture capital funding. Key client outcomes include: Healthcare recruitment startup: Generated $1M+ pipeline, $150K in realized revenue, and secured $200K in VC funding within 18 months An AI automation agency who built over $500K+ pipeline through systematic email marketing, lead generation and automation Coaches, creators and service businesses generating over 10,000,000+ in impressions across multiple niches and platforms From Curiosity to Systems Thinking Zeeshan's path to this insight was unconventional. Four years ago, as a broke college student from a family of 9-to-5 employees with no entrepreneurial background, he offered free LinkedIn ghostwriting to founders, seeking to understand how successful entrepreneurs think differently. "Those sessions turned into something closer to therapy," Zeeshan recalled. "I worked with roughly 30 founders and discovered a pattern: brilliant people who struggled to make their vision accessible to regular people. That insight became the foundation helping businesses 'BE FOUND' through 'SOCIAL' media by making complex ideas understandable and actionable." That foundation evolved into BeFound Social's current model: full-stack marketing systems powered by AI automation platforms. Industry Recognition and Strategic Partnerships Zeeshan's analysis of the industry's evolution has gained attention beyond his client work. He was recently featured on "Founders Future," a podcast by Closers.io which is run by Cole Gordon, a renowned agency owner and sales expert, discussing the future of marketing agencies in the age of AI. In 2024-2025, BeFound Social secured strategic partnerships with Hexona Systems , a global AI automation agency with partnerships across Make.com, OpenAI, Zapier, and Grok. Maarij also co-launched an educational bootcamp with AI educator Hamza Baig , teaching the next generation of AI automation operators on how to build and sell AI Automations for businesses that need them. The Urgency of the Shift Zeeshan emphasizes that this industry split isn't theoretical - it's happening now. As AI capabilities expand and automation tools become more sophisticated, agencies that haven't chosen a path will find themselves competing against specialists who have. "We're at the tipping point," Zeeshan concluded. "The question isn't whether marketing agencies will adopt AI - it's whether they'll survive if they don't. Agencies need to decide: Are you building systems that run 24/7, or are you creating what AI can't replicate? Both paths can win. But trying to be everything to everyone? That's the path to obsolescence." What This Means for B2B Businesses For companies evaluating marketing partners, Zeeshan's analysis offers a framework: Determine whether you need systems that scale (automation-intensive) or creative production AI cannot match (production-intensive), then hire accordingly. "The old model of hiring an agency that 'does marketing' is dying," Zeeshan said. "Businesses need to get specific about what problem they're solving. Do you need a marketing department that runs on autopilot? Or do you need mass creative production and personal brand building? Those require different partners now." About BeFound Social LLC: BeFound Social LLC is an AI-powered marketing agency specializing in full-stack marketing systems for B2B service companies, coaches, creators, and agencies.

Kyle Bigley’s TxtCart Challenges Ecom SMS Giants with Conversational AI

As the Founder and CEO of TxtCart , Kyle Bigley has used his entrepreneurial vision to disrupt traditional SMS marketing. His background as a D1 NHRA drag racing champion shaped his approach to business, and when he saw SMS giants promoting generic messages to customers, he saw an opportunity for innovation. Bigley began developing AI technology that could engage customers in meaningful conversations, not simply send out blasts. TxtCart’s platform facilitates conversations that answer customer queries about products, shipping, and personal preferences. For instance, it remembers individual customer preferences, like Sarah’s preference for free shipping over discounts. The AI system even drives impressive results, contributing $1.8 million in sales for brands such as Joyride. The End of One-Way Robotic SMS Messages Traditional SMS marketing has long been criticized for bombarding customers with irrelevant or repetitive messages. TxtCart aims to change that narrative by introducing a conversational approach that enhances customer engagement and drives higher sales. For example, when a customer asks, “What size is best for my 45lb lab?” traditional SMS platforms would continue sending discount offers. TxtCart’s AI, however, responds by offering a personalized recommendation based on the dog’s size. This personalized communication leads to actual sales. By remembering past purchases, offering targeted discounts, and providing 24/7 support, TxtCart ensures that every interaction with customers is meaningful. This strategy results in significantly higher revenue contribution from SMS, with TxtCart brands achieving 21% of their total revenue through this innovative approach—far above the industry average of 5-15%. Nearly $100M in SMS Revenue Generated Across 3,000+ Ecom Brands The success of TxtCart is evident in the results its clients are experiencing across diverse ecommerce industries. For example: Joyride generated $1.8 million in SMS-attributed revenue, securing 23,616 sales through two-way conversations. Organic Grow Hair achieved a 16.9x ROI, recovering $25,000 monthly and generating 9,500 orders with an impressive 42% reply rate. Haute Home LA earned $15,000 within five days of using the platform, surpassing $40,000 in the first month. LunivA brought in over $10,000 in its first month. Kyle Bigley’s Approach: Bootstrapping to $3M ARR with 5 Employees Kyle Bigley’s entrepreneurial journey began early. As a child, he modified Nerf guns and sold them on eBay. In college, he scaled a dropshipping store to $30,000/month, eventually selling it for $50,000. However, he quickly realized that he wanted to create something more sustainable and scalable, leading him to found TxtCart. Bigley’s approach to growing TxtCart has been methodical and resourceful: He worked full-time at his day job while building TxtCart during evenings and weekends. He chose to bootstrap the company rather than seeking external funding, which allowed him to retain control and grow the business on his terms. Bigley focused on creating value first, ensuring TxtCart’s product was superior before expanding further. What’s Next for Kyle Bigley and TxtCart? The $25M Vision TxtCart 4.0 marks the start of turning the product into a full ecommerce communication platform instead of a single-feature SMS app. This release introduces flows, new pricing, a stronger AI engine, and the foundation for automating far more of a brand’s customer lifecycle. Looking ahead, Kyle Bigley’s long-term vision is clear: grow TxtCart into a platform capable of $25M ARR over the next five years, with a path toward a strategic exit. What’s Coming in TxtCart 4.5 and Beyond Version 4.5 focuses on rebuilding the product experience from the ground up—making TxtCart feel faster, cleaner, and more powerful for high-volume ecommerce brands. Key upgrades include: A full UI/UX reskin built for efficiency, clarity, and enterprise-level workflows. Enhanced AI capabilities that refine predictions, improve conversational accuracy, and help plan better campaigns. Native popup integration so brands no longer need third-party form tools. New campaign types and automation options that expand what marketers can run inside TxtCart. Stronger reporting and analytics, giving brands clearer visibility into revenue, performance, and customer behavior. The Endgame: Autonomous Commerce Each release pushes TxtCart closer to autonomous marketing—where campaigns plan themselves, flows optimize automatically, and reporting turns into actionable guidance instead of static numbers. This is the backbone of the long-term $25M vision. Looking ahead, Kyle Bigley envisions TxtCart as a complete platform for ecommerce, going beyond just SMS marketing. TxtCart 4.0 introduces full workflow automation and AI that continuously learns from each customer interaction, making it a comprehensive solution for brands looking to improve their communication strategies. Kyle Bigley: Conversations > Broadcasts The SMS marketing giants built their empires on a simple bet: that brands would pay to annoy their customers at scale. Kyle Bigley built TxtCart on the opposite bet: that conversations beat broadcasts, that 5 employees can outperform 500, and that the future of commerce isn't more messages—it's better ones. With $3M ARR, zero funding, and 21% revenue attribution rates that make enterprise platforms look like toys, it turns out the drag racing champion was right about finding the faster lane. The giants should be worried. Kyle's just getting started. About TxtCart.ai TxtCart is a conversational SMS platform designed to help ecommerce brands connect with their customers in a more personalized and impactful way. Founded by Kyle Bigley, TxtCart uses AI to engage customers in real conversations, driving higher sales and better customer retention. With over 9-figures in revenue generated for more than 3,000 Shopify brands, TxtCart is reshaping the future of SMS marketing. For more information, visit TxtCart .

Fortem Cybersecurity, the New Global Cybersecurity Brand from Maguen Group, Officially Launches

Maguen Group , a leading Mexican private security company with over 17 years of operational excellence and ethical leadership, is proud to announce the launch of its new global cybersecurity brand, Fortem Cybersecurity . This launch comes as part of Maguen Group’s plans to expand its presence and democratize cybersecurity. With the launch of Fortem Cybersecurity, Maguen Group continues its commitment to creating secure environments. Fortem Cybersecurity builds on the company’s journey into cybersecurity, which began in 2014 when Maguen Group successfully resolved a major cyber incident for a leading Mexican company. Since then, Maguen Group, which is an alliance between five previously established security companies (Maguen Team, Seguridad Dragon, MT Cyber (now Fortem Cybersecurity), Promotora Kabat, and Maguen Tech), has been on a mission to revolutionize security consultancy, physical protection, and digital defense. Fortem Cybersecurity was founded in 2017 in Mexico City under the name MT Cyber. The company later joined Maguen Group in 2019, positioning itself as the cybersecurity arm of the expanding company. Since its launch, MT Cyber has led the charge in cyber threat intelligence, managed security services, and strategic consulting. Now, under the new brand, Fortem Cybersecurity, the company is establishing itself as a full-scale cybersecurity company equipped for global threats. Speaking about this launch, Zvi Michaeli, the founder and CEO of Maguen Group, emphasized the importance of democratizing cybersecurity and making enterprise-grade protection accessible to companies of all sizes. He explained that Fortem is built to meet the growing global need for integrated cyber protection. The new cybersecurity brand will continue to build on Maguen Group’s 17-year legacy by blending Israeli know-how with Latin American innovation to deliver integrated, proactive, and accessible protection. “Seventeen years ago, Maguen began with the promise of creating safe environments. Today, that promise evolves with Fortem, a cybersecurity brand built on resilience, trust, and innovation. Fortem is not just a new name, it is our commitment to being true allies to our clients in both the physical and digital worlds,” said Zvi.
