01 · What we build

Three ways we take work off your plate.

For your team, your customers, or both. Every build starts from how your business actually runs.

01

Workflow automation

Connect your tools and let the repetitive work run itself.

  • Lead routing and automatic follow-ups
  • Data entry between the apps you use
  • Reports and alerts that send themselves
Example

A new lead fills out your form. Their details land in your CRM, the right salesperson is notified, and a follow-up is scheduled automatically.

02

AI assistants

Chat and phone assistants that answer, qualify, and book, around the clock.

  • AI receptionists for calls and texts
  • Customer support and internal Q&A
  • Multi-language phone systems
Example

A caller asks about your services. Your AI receptionist answers their questions, gathers what they need, and books a consultation or connects them to the right person.

03

Custom software

“I wish our system could…” We turn that sentence into working software.

  • Internal tools and dashboards
  • Customer portals, web apps, and websites
  • AI features built into your product
Example

“I wish customers could fix product issues before requesting a return.” We build it around your products and support process to cut avoidable returns.

03 · Why Abboud Systems

A partner who builds around you.

You get software designed around your business, and a builder who knows it inside and out.

John AbboudFounder. You work with him directly, from the first call to launch.

Built for you, not from a template

Every project is designed around your workflow, your customers, and the features you actually want, not forced into an off-the-shelf box.

Works with what you already use

We connect the software you rely on today instead of asking your team to start over. No lock-in to one platform or vendor.

Direct access to the builder

No account managers or hand-offs. The person you talk to is the person building your software.

Local roots, remote-ready

Based in Peoria, Illinois, and working with businesses anywhere over video call.

04 · How we work

From first call to launch, in four steps.

A simple, transparent process, so you always know what’s happening and what comes next.

  1. STEP 01

    Discovery call

    A 30-minute call to understand your business, what’s slowing you down, and what you want to build.

  2. STEP 02

    Scope & proposal

    A clear plan: what we’ll build, how it fits your tools, the timeline, and the cost, before any work begins.

  3. STEP 03

    Build & review

    We build in focused stages and check in along the way, so the result matches how your team actually works.

  4. STEP 04

    Launch & support

    We launch, help your team get comfortable, and stay available to adjust and improve as you grow.

05 · FAQ

Questions, answered.

Don’t see yours? Ask it on a quick call or send it by email.

Ask John directly
How much does a project cost?

It depends on what you need. A focused automation is a much smaller project than a full custom platform. After a discovery call, you’ll get a written proposal with a clear price before any work begins.

How long does it take?

Smaller automations move quickly; larger custom software takes longer. Your proposal includes a realistic timeline, and you’ll see progress along the way.

Do we have to change the software we already use?

No. We build around the tools your team already relies on and connect them together, instead of asking everyone to start over on something new.

What kinds of businesses do you work with?

Businesses of all sizes, from local service businesses to product companies. Recent work includes an AI receptionist for appointment-based businesses, AI product support for Pop-A-Shot, and a website for a personal trainer.

Do you only work with businesses in Peoria?

No. We’re based in Peoria, Illinois, and work with clients anywhere. Calls happen over Google Meet.

What happens after launch?

We stay available to fix issues, make adjustments, and add improvements as your business changes. You’re never left on your own with software you don’t understand.

What’s the first step?

Book a 30-minute call or send a message. Tell us what you wish your business or software could do, and we’ll take it from there.

Have something in mind?

Let’s build it together.

Here’s how it should look. If you’re using the power adapter:

  1. Check that the adapter is firmly connected to the scoreboard and a working outlet.
  2. Turn the game on and check the display.

It worked! Thank you!
