What the thirty minutes actually is
Ten minutes on your business, your systems, and who touches the books today. No deck, no discovery script.
We look at your most recent month together and name what's missing, misstated, or simply late.
A written list of findings and a scoped recommendation — including an honest referral if we're not the fit.
How engagements are scoped
Clean monthly books and core statements for businesses finding their footing — the foundation everything on this site describes.
Accrual books closed by day ten, with the reporting, forecasting, and filing calendar handled as one system.
Controller and CFO-level support: board packages, cash strategy, diligence readiness, and a finance function that scales with you.
Pricing scales from there on volume and complexity. See the cost benchmarks in the Index before you talk to anyone, including us.
