Business Software & Automation Developer | Excel, VBA, SQL
🏆 TOP RATED | 100% JOB SUCCESS ⚙️ CUSTOM BUSINESS SOFTWARE & AUTOMATION 💻 EXCEL • VBA • SQL • MICROSOFT OFFICE ✅ Replace repetitive manual work with practical tools ✅ Connect your systems, databases and APIs ✅ Build quoting, invoicing, tracking and reporting applications I build custom business tools, connect systems and automate repetitive work. If your team is spending too much time moving data, preparing reports or working around software that doesn't quite fit, I can help. I bring around 20 years of Excel and VBA experience, with Excel as my main focus and VBA development across the Microsoft Office suite. My work also covers Access and SQL databases, API integrations, reporting and business-process automation. My projects include invoicing and quoting applications, fleet management, job tracking, sales forms and reporting tools. Whether you need an existing system repaired, separate tools connected or a custom application built around your workflow, I start with what your business needs to achieve. WHAT I CAN HELP WITH 🔹 Custom business applications Tools for quoting, invoicing, tracking, managing records and reporting, designed around the way your team works. 🔹 Automation and integrations Reduce repeated data entry, connect systems through APIs, process files and automate routine tasks. 🔹 Databases and multi-user tools SQL and Access solutions that organise your data and let multiple people work with it reliably. 🔹 Microsoft Office development VBA and automation across Excel, Access, Word, Outlook and PowerPoint, including workflows that connect multiple applications. 🔹 Reporting and data processing Turn exports and disconnected data into repeatable reports, dashboards and useful information. 🔹 Existing-system improvements Troubleshoot applications, simplify workflows and plan practical upgrades or a move beyond a spreadsheet-based system. HOW I WORK I take the time to understand your current process, what is causing problems and what the finished tool needs to do. From there, we agree on a clear scope, choose a practical approach and define how we'll test the result. I aim to build tools that are straightforward to use and maintain, with clear communication throughout and a handover that helps you get value from the work. I also share Excel and VBA tutorials on YouTube as @YourVBTutor. What Clients Say: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Here's to Matt! I’d like to recognize his outstanding work in supporting the development of our online form.

Matthew goes above and beyond and greatly exceeds the client's expectations. We will be looking forward to future engagements with Matthew." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Working with Matthew was fantastic. I needed an excel document designed for data aggregation with specific parameters. Matthew not only did that to my specifications, he made it repeatable and usable on an ongoing basis not a single use. Also, I wanted it in Google sheets and he was able to accomplish that. A+. 5 stars. Highly recommend." ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"Matthew was very responsive and attentive to detail. He pointed out several errors within my code that I was unaware of and taught me a few things rather than just throwing me the answer. He wrote out an entire code for me which saved me months of a tedious, tedious task. I asked for so many requests and he completed all of them, and exactly as specified. He is very patient with his clients and took time out of his own schedule to complete a further request. For that, I greatly appreciate him doing. He is a pleasure to work with, really bright mind, very on-point, and delivered the final product at the promised hour. Thank you Matt, for inventing this ingenious code for me!"
