We'll only use this to reach you about your Game Plan. Privacy policy
Pick a time. There's nothing to prepare and nothing to send us before the call.
A sample month, animated: the bank statement, the ledger and the month's documents get tied out, one line is flagged for review, the tax number lands in writing, and a phone shows the monthly done email.
For the owner of another kind of company doing $500K to $20M a year who wants to grow and wants a finance department behind it, not a bookkeeper plus a tax preparer.

Questions owners ask.
Do you work with businesses that are not contractors or home services?
Yes. If you own another kind of company doing $500K to $20M a year and want to grow, we set a price for it on the free Game Plan call. The work is the same: books closed every month, every business and personal tax return we list when you sign, payroll watched and a mid-year projection of what you'll owe.
Will I see profit and loss every month?
Yes. Every month you get your profit and loss for the month and the year so far, your balance sheet and your cash flow, in plain words, with the books tied to the bank and your key numbers against your budget.
Do you find costs we paid for a customer?
Yes. The freight, the materials, the permit you paid for a customer. We find them every month and put them in front of you before the next invoice goes out, not at year end.
How is the price set for other businesses?
Your price is set for your business. We learn how it runs on the free Game Plan call, and you see the number in writing before you owe anything.
I already have a bookkeeper and a CPA. Why switch?
So look, your bookkeeper and your CPA cover 2 of the 9 things on that list, and the other 7 are where the money leaks out. Let's just say two $140 charges a week never make it onto an invoice, that's over $14,000 a year, and nobody's checking for it. We cover all 9 for one monthly price, and on the Game Plan call you'll see what your setup is leaving behind before you owe anything.
Is there a contract?
No contract and no exit fee. You pay the first month on your start date, then monthly. Cancel anytime and take your complete books with you.
