Every inquiry and listing at
Carol Coelho Náutica waited on Carol.
Forty-nine days later, they don’t.
A boutique yacht brokerage in Brazil, trusted by its buyers and buried in its own admin. The founder answered every inquiry herself, wrote every listing from a blank page, and carried every follow-up in her head. Three live automations later, the numbers below are the brokerage’s, not the pitch’s.
Trusted by its buyers. Manual for itself.
The repetitive work was taking hours out of every week.
The engagement opened the way every Jovadan engagement opens: two weeks of interviews and workflow audit before anything gets built. Preparing images, creating listings, and keeping up with buyers all depended on the founder.
My first client wrote on a Friday; by Monday they had bought through another broker. I didn’t need the diagnostic to tell me I had a problem. I needed it to put a number on it, and that number is what made me sign.” Carol Coelho · Founder & Broker, Carol Coelho Náutica
Three systems scoped for Carol.
Now part of everyday work.
Automatic image watermarking
Every image Carol uploads to her website automatically receives the brokerage’s watermark. She no longer has to add it to each image by hand, saving over five minutes per image and three hours of work each week.
Listing-to-market engine
A new yacht’s specs and photos go in once; a full marketing package comes out: listing copy, spec sheet, social posts, and an email announcement. Carol reviews the specs and approves; the pipeline handles the rest.
Buyer-match & nurture
Every new or price-dropped listing is matched against buyer wishlists and sent to the buyers who fit, with a personal note. Quiet buyers surface before they go cold. Carol keeps the send button; the system never forgets a follow-up.
Each system shipped with the standard fittings: observability dashboards, an evaluation suite, a founder-controlled kill switch, and a one-page runbook. Carol Coelho Náutica owns all of it, in their accounts, on their stack.
The hours came back to named people.
“I no longer have to sacrifice time with my family to keep up with work. And dinner with Leonardo, my one-year-old, is just dinner now, not an hour of wondering which client I’ve left waiting.”
“Yachting runs on trust, not price. When an owner had to wait for days to see their boat listed, they didn’t just feel ignored; they started to doubt everything else about us, and that doubt is the most expensive thing a broker can carry. Now no one waits, and the confidence I’d watched slip away came back.”
Founders’ Edition terms, exactly as published.
Your firm has its own day-long listing.
The diagnostic finds it in two weeks and puts a number on it. Whichever way you decide afterward, the roadmap is yours to keep.
