Industry Challenges

THE FINANCIAL HEADACHES YOU'RE ALREADY DEALING WITH

You Don't Know Which Clients Are Profitable

Revenue looks good on paper, but some clients eat up way more time and resources than they're worth. Without client-level tracking, you're guessing. We break down revenue and costs by client so you see who's actually driving your margins.

Retainers and Trust Accounts Need Special Handling

Client retainers and trust account funds aren't revenue until you earn them. They need to be tracked separately and drawn down properly. We manage your retainer accounting so your books stay compliant and your cash position is always clear.

Contractors vs. Employees Gets Complicated

You might have a mix of W-2 employees and 1099 contractors, sometimes working on the same project. Misclassifying workers is a serious IRS issue. We track payments by worker type and make sure your 1099s are ready at year-end.

Accounts Receivable Piles Up

You did the work, you sent the invoice, and now you're waiting 45, 60, 90 days to get paid. We track your AR aging so you know exactly who owes what, how long it's been outstanding, and where to focus your collection efforts.

A great partner! The engagement from Jordan has been fantastic and has taken the guess work out of my day to day. Already getting time back and feeling less stressed about my financial wellbeing as a whole.

Common Questions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes. We set up client and project tracking in QuickBooks so every hour billed, expense incurred, and payment received ties to the right client. You'll see which clients and projects are your most profitable and which ones need renegotiating or cutting loose.

We track retainer deposits as liabilities until you earn them. As you bill against the retainer, we move the appropriate amount to revenue. For trust accounts (common with law firms), we maintain separate ledger tracking to keep client funds fully segregated from operating funds.

Yes. We track all contractor payments throughout the year by vendor. When January comes, everything is ready to issue 1099-NEC forms on time. We also flag any vendors who are approaching the $600 threshold so nothing gets missed.

We maintain your AR aging report and flag overdue invoices so you know exactly who owes what and how long it's been outstanding. We don't do collections, but we give you the data you need to follow up effectively and spot clients who are consistently slow payers.
