Common Challenges

We Understand Finance Engineering

The four finance situations that push a business owner to stop doing it themselves.

Books Are Always Behind

The QuickBooks login exists. Someone updates it occasionally. But when you need a P&L for a board meeting or a loan application, nobody is confident the number is right. That is not an accounting problem. It is an ownership problem, and it compounds every month you leave it.

No Cash Flow Visibility

You find out you are short on cash when you are already close. There is no regular forecast, no weekly cash position, no one watching the gap between what is coming in and what is going out. Surprises at this stage are expensive and usually avoidable.

Tax Season Is a Fire Drill

Every year, the same scramble. Chasing receipts, reconciling months of data, and paying three times what you should to your CPA because the records were not ready. A managed finance function means tax season is just another month.

You Are the Finance Department

You are signing expenses, chasing invoices, paying bills, and trying to read a P&L all at once. Finance does not need to be your job. It needs to be done right, on a schedule, by someone who owns it.

What We Build

Finance Engineering Capabilities

What our team handles on your behalf, from weekly bookkeeping to cash flow forecasting, AP and AR, and team options that scale with your business.

Bookkeeping & Accounts

Our team keeps your books current and accurate on a weekly basis. Every transaction is categorized, every account reconciled, and your records are ready when you need them. Not just at month-end or tax time.

Month-End Close & Reporting

We close the books by the 5th of every month and deliver a clean P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement with a plain-language summary of what the numbers mean. You see the actual state of your business, not an estimate someone put together in a rush.

Accounts Payable & Receivable

We manage your vendor payments and customer invoicing. Bills go out on schedule, invoices get followed up, and you stop losing money to late fees or slow collections because nobody had time to chase them.

Cash Flow Forecasting

We build and maintain a 13-week cash flow forecast so you always know what is coming in, what is going out, and when you need to act. No more end-of-month surprises.

Single Specialist or Full Finance Team

Some businesses need one dedicated bookkeeper who owns the function from day one. Others need a full team: a bookkeeper, an AP and AR specialist, and a fractional controller for close and reporting. We scope based on what you actually need today and scale the team as your business and transaction volume grow.

Tax Preparation Support

We keep your books audit-ready year-round and coordinate with your CPA at tax time. No year-end scramble, no catch-up fees, and no surprise bills for work that should have been done months earlier.

Questions? We've Got Answers

Your Outsourced Finance Questions, Answered.

Straight answers on what a managed finance team actually handles and whether outsourcing your books makes sense for your business.

Featured Answer

What does an outsourced finance team actually handle day to day?

Day to day, an outsourced finance team keeps your books current, categorizes every transaction, reconciles your accounts weekly, and manages vendor payments and customer invoicing. At the end of each month, they close the books, run your financial statements, and flag anything that needs your attention. You get a P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement delivered by the 5th every month, without you having to ask. The goal is that you always know where you stand financially, without spending your own time to find out.

How We Work

Our Finance Engagement Process

How a managed finance engagement runs from the catch-up phase through steady-state monthly close.

01

Books Assessment

We review your current records, identify how far behind things are, and give you a timeline and cost estimate for the catch-up before we start the ongoing service.

02

Catch-Up Period

We reconcile and clean the books back to a current date. Most catch-ups take two to six weeks. You see the work as it progresses.

03

System Setup

We configure your accounting tools, connect your bank feeds, and set up the chart of accounts and workflows that the ongoing process will run on.

04

Weekly Bookkeeping

Every week, transactions are categorized, accounts are reconciled, and the books stay current. Nothing waits until month-end.

05

Monthly Close

By the 5th of each month you receive a P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement with a plain-language summary. No chasing, no reminders required.

06

Quarterly Review

Each quarter we meet to review financial trends, flag anything that needs your attention, and make sure the reporting matches what your business actually needs.

Common Questions

Straight answers to the questions most business owners ask before handing their books to an external team.

What exactly is included in a managed finance service?
At a minimum: weekly bookkeeping, monthly close delivered by the 5th, a P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement each month, AP and AR management, and a quarterly review call. More complete plans add cash flow forecasting, FP&A support, and tax preparation coordination. You do not manage the work or brief individual tasks. Your account lead owns the calendar and keeps the books moving.
Our books are behind. Can you still take this on?
Yes, and it is one of the most common situations we take over. We start with a catch-up engagement, reconciling and cleaning the books to a current date before setting up the ongoing service. We give you a timeline and cost estimate for the catch-up upfront so there are no surprises. Most catch-ups take two to six weeks depending on how far behind things are.
How much does outsourced finance cost?
Engagements start around $1,500 per month for a single dedicated bookkeeper handling weekly bookkeeping and monthly close. A full team with AP, AR, and fractional controller oversight starts higher, but is still significantly less than hiring even one full-time finance employee when you factor in salary, benefits, and the time it takes to find and onboard someone. We give you a clear scope and price during a free discovery call.
We already have a bookkeeper. Do we still need this?
It depends on what your bookkeeper covers. If you have someone doing basic data entry but you are still missing month-end close, financial reporting, or cash flow visibility, we can fill those gaps without replacing what you already have. Some clients start by adding our fractional controller layer on top of their existing bookkeeper.
Can I start with one person and grow the finance team over time?
Yes. Most clients start with a single dedicated bookkeeper or accountant who owns the function. As your business grows and your financial operations become more complex, we bring in the right people: an AP and AR specialist, a fractional controller, or senior CFO-level oversight for strategic decisions. You don't change vendors or restart the process. The team grows alongside you.
Do you work with our existing CPA or accountant?
Yes. We work alongside your CPA, not instead of them. We handle the day-to-day books and monthly close. Your CPA handles tax strategy and filing. We make sure the books are clean and ready well before they need them, which usually reduces your CPA bill as well.
How do we know the numbers are accurate?
Every account is reconciled monthly against bank statements, credit card statements, and any connected platforms like Stripe or Gusto. You get a reconciliation summary as part of your monthly close package. If something does not tie, we flag it to you before the report goes out, not after.
