The problem is getting people to understand the accomplishment especially if you have to do some heroic hack to get something mundane but important to work.
The cynic would say: Why were you working on a mundane problem? That's for some other nameless jr. dev to fix while you focus on the high-profile-yet-easy stuff.
If you automate that process - maybe spit the screenshots into weekly emails or a dashboard - and people start working specifically to improve those numbers then you just might have a greater aggregate impact on revenues than the 1/size_of_your_team you presumably have now [1].
Blow your trumpet and blow it louder. That always helps.
Your accomplishments are nothing until you successfully explain it to others and let them know you did it.
Keeping things to yourself and telling no one appreciates your genius never works.
