For consultants and firms, your inventory is time. We track billable work, unbilled WIP, retainers, and client invoicing, so your revenue is recognized correctly and your profit per client is clear.
Clean books are the difference between running your professional services business on real numbers and running it on guesswork. We give you accurate, up to date bookkeeping and clear reporting, so every decision, from pricing to hiring to your next investment, rests on what is really happening in your business, not a rough estimate at year end.
Why it is different
When you sell time and expertise, revenue timing matters. Work is often done before it is billed, retainers are paid before work is done, and profit varies a lot by client. Getting this wrong makes your numbers misleading.
We track billable work and unbilled WIP, handle retainers and deferred revenue correctly, keep client invoicing tight, and report profit by client, so your books reflect the real economics of your practice.
