Beyond the books
From records to decisions
Some owners are happy with accurate books. Others, in Prospect and elsewhere, reach a point where they need forecasts, margins and a plan, but do not need a full-time finance executive.
It is planning and reporting on the books we keep, delivered at the size your business needs. It does not replace your CPA. Tax returns are a separate service (see /tax-preparation); we do not audit statements or give legal advice.
What that can include
- A rolling 13-week cash flow forecast, so a slow month is not a surprise
- A one-page dashboard of the five or six numbers you steer by
- A budget and a monthly look at budget versus actual
