Ronald J. Abbate
A high-tech mindset, applied to the unglamorous parts of running a business. More than twenty years managing small business, now spent building the systems that run them.
Reduce The
Friction.
Your tools are mostly fine. The cost is in the seams between them — the order re-typed into the CRM, the invoice built by hand, the spreadsheet someone emails at 6pm. That's where the day goes. I use AI to carry the work across those seams: tools connected, data handed off, the boring middle running itself.
Software integration & business automationThe store, the CRM, the calendar, the label printer, even the door locks — I've been the person running all of it. AI where it earns its keep, real engineering everywhere it counts.
What do you
need built?
Automate
AI agents doing real work: a pricing engine over 6,800 products, a photo library captioned for $11, forensic ad audits, a back office that reconciles itself nightly.
Build
Websites & e-commerce. A 5,000-product Magento → Woo migration, custom WordPress, React design systems — and scroll-driven builds like the one you're on.
Connect
The wiring: SSO, CRMs, booking, print servers, camera-driven HVAC, networks with zero open ports. Software into websites — and into the walls.
Make
CAD in Fusion & Shapr3D, a three-printer farm, laser and lathe. From STEP file to object in hand — including the cube you're watching.
Web design that
converts visitors.
I don't just
build it. I run it.
Expo Depot
Built the e-commerce store for a larger trade-show display organization — 5,000 products, Magento → Woo — and, as COO, helped run the lead → sales → production → delivery pipeline. Still run the store today.

Soca BJJ · Glen Cove
Co-owner and lead instructor, third-degree black belt. The academy is also my lab — the door locks, the thermostat, and the marketing all run on systems I built.
The backstory, briefly: fourth generation in the trade-show display business, designing exhibits at fifteen. The hats accumulated from there.
My tools,
as outcomes.
