Justin Lim
Scaling Smarter with Automation

Hi, I’m Justin, an automation strategist and ecommerce builder focused on helping businesses scale smarter and faster. Over the past eight years, I’ve launched and grown multiple ventures generating over $28M in revenue, building everything from proprietary product lines to full-scale automation systems.

I specialize in connecting strategy with execution, designing workflows that save teams more than 150 hours a month, enable small support teams to serve thousands, and turn complex processes into seamless, automated systems. My work includes founding and scaling Bulletproof Zone, launching ProtectAgainst, a proprietary line of protective gear, and building Auto AI Labs, a consultancy that designs intelligent workflows to drive measurable ROI.

Outside of building systems and optimizing storefronts, you’ll find me bouldering or exploring new tech, always looking for creative ways to push boundaries and keep learning.
