The 60-Day Finance Reset

For businesses where reporting, forecasting and financial control need rebuilding before anything else is worth doing. Close, management information and forecasting put on a working footing.

What this is

Some businesses are not ready for a model or a raise, because the underlying records will not carry one. Reconciliations have drifted, the chart of accounts has grown organically, and every report needs a caveat.

Sixty days to fix that: clean ledgers, a close calendar that holds, a reporting pack that means something, and a forecast built on numbers you can defend.

Common questions

Asked before every one of these.

How do I know I need this rather than the sprint?

If your last three months of reports needed a verbal explanation to make sense, start here. We will tell you straight on the call.

Will my accountant be involved?

Usually yes, and it helps. We work with whoever files the statutory accounts rather than around them.

What happens at the end?

You either run it yourself with the documented process, move onto the retainer, or go straight into the 30-day sprint.
