Level

Pricing

Three layers. One simple ladder.

Three tiers. Start at $99/mo. Grow when you're ready. No long-term contracts.

Books

Clean books. The on-ramp. Anyone with a real business can start here.

$99/mo

Best for: Any business that needs clean monthly books.

What's included

  • Monthly bookkeeping (cash basis)
  • Books set up for your industry
  • Bank and credit card reconciliation
  • Monthly P&L and balance sheet you can hand to your lender
  • Year-end package for your CPA
  • Behind on books? Same $99 per month behind

This is the on-ramp. We don't make money here. Many clients move up to Fractional CFO within 90 days because clean books surface what's actually broken.

The honest reality: in 4+ years, we've had exactly two clients where the engagement didn't pay for itself in year one — both were businesses in terminal decline. For healthy or growing businesses, fractional CFO is one of the highest-return professional services you can buy. Read the full calculator post →

Behind on bookkeeping?

Catch-up is the same flat $99 — per month behind.

Behind on your books? Same $99 per month behind. Six months behind = six catch-up months at $99, then $99/mo ongoing. No surprises.

Catch-up requires signing up for ongoing Books or above so we can keep you current after the cleanup. That's how we keep one simple number for everything.
