What You Get

A comprehensive financial diagnostic performed by a CGMA with 24 years in professional finance.

Chart of Accounts Review

Is your chart of accounts structured for decision-making or just compliance? We identify misclassifications, missing accounts, and structural issues that produce misleading financials.

Cash Flow Mapping

We trace where your money actually goes: operating cash flow, working capital cycle, and the gap between profit and bank balance. Most founders are shocked by the difference.

Quick Win Identification

3–5 immediate improvements you can make this month: vendor term renegotiations, AR collection gaps, cost reductions, pricing adjustments, or tax planning opportunities.

KPI Benchmark Report

Your margins, DSO, cash conversion cycle, and overhead ratios compared to industry benchmarks. Know exactly where you're outperforming — and where you're bleeding.

Written Action Plan

A clear, prioritized report: what's working, what's broken, and what to fix first. Yours to keep and act on — whether you work with us or not.

60-Minute Review Call

Walk through every finding together. Ask questions. Get honest, specific recommendations on what level of financial support your business actually needs — even if it's not us.

Who This Is For

Companies doing $1M–$10M that aren't sure if they need a bookkeeper upgrade, a controller, or a CFO
Founders who suspect their books are wrong but don't know where — and don't want to commit to a retainer to find out
PE firms or boards evaluating portfolio company financials and need an independent assessment before making investment decisions
Companies preparing for fundraising or acquisition that want a pre-diligence check before investors see the books

How It Works

1

30-Minute Scoping Call

We learn about your business, your accounting setup, and your biggest financial concerns. Free, no obligation.

2

System Access & Review

You grant read-only access to your accounting platform. We review 6–12 months of data: chart of accounts, trial balance, bank reconciliations, AP/AR aging, and cash flow patterns.

3

Written Report Delivery

Within 10 business days, you receive a detailed PDF: findings, benchmarks, quick wins, and a recommended action plan. No jargon — written for founders, not auditors.

4

60-Minute Review Call

Walk through every finding together. Ask anything. We'll give you an honest recommendation — bookkeeper upgrade, controller, CFO, or "you're fine as-is."

$2,500 — Fully Credited to Any Retainer

If you decide to work with us on an ongoing basis, the full $2,500 assessment fee is credited toward your first month's retainer. Either way, the report is yours to keep.

Know Where You Stand

30-minute scoping call. No sales pitch. We'll tell you honestly if this assessment makes sense for your business — or if you need something else entirely.
