This is Freddie.

Freddie has claimed the office chair, the notebook, and apparently the agenda for the day.

He is not going to reconcile your accounts. He is not going to categorize your transactions or make sure your books are ready for tax season. He is just going to sit there and look at you like that until someone brings him a treat.

Fortunately, I will do all of those things.

If your books need someone a little more qualified than Freddie, link in bio to book a call.

🚨 SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS, THIS ONE’S FOR YOU! 🚨

You’re busy running the business.
We’re busy making sure the numbers don’t run you. 😉

As a small business ourselves, we know firsthand how much goes into building something of your own. That’s why we believe in supporting local, shopping small, and helping other small businesses succeed. 🤝💙

Here are some of the amazing businesses we had the privilege of supporting last month 👇

✨ Bellingham Flower Farm
✨ Calico Cupboard
✨ Monroe Wildlife Center (formally The Reptile Zoo)
✨The Black Cat
✨ The Bine
✨ Woodfire Grill
✨ Paige & Pink Candle Co.
✨ Desert Hat Bar
✨ Cowgirl Coffee

And our support for small doesn’t stop at home! 🧳✨ When we travel, we make it a point to shop small, eat local, and support small businesses wherever we go. Because we know just how much that support means.

Every business on this list represents a small business owner working hard to make their dream happen and we’re proud to be behind the scenes helping with the numbers.

Because when small businesses support small businesses, our communities get stronger. 💙

👇 Small business owners, drop your business name below!
Let’s show each other some love, make new connections, and support one another!

And if your bookkeeping is the one thing you’d LOVE to stop worrying about… 👀 we should probably talk.

🚨Small business owners, it’s almost month-end—and it’s the LAST month of Q3!

That means it’s time to wrap up August and start paying a little extra attention to where your business stands as we head toward the final quarter of the year. 📊

Before you close out the month:

✔️ Reconcile accounts
✔️ Categorize transactions
✔️ Review outstanding invoices
✔️ Check your cash flow
✔️ Review your Q3 numbers
✔️ Make sure your books are ready for Q4

Q3 is almost in the books—literally. 😉

Don’t let messy bookkeeping follow you into the final quarter. Your numbers can give you valuable insight into what’s working, where you’re spending, and what needs your attention before year-end.

And if bookkeeping just made its way to the bottom of your to-do list… 👀
That’s what your bookkeeper is for!

- Never give one person complete control over your finances. Separate duties whenever possible.
- Review vendor and employee payment details before sending money.
- Watch for duplicate payments or duplicate invoices.

QuickBooks has been rolling out AI updates, and you may notice a few changes. Here are a few things to know:

- Transactions don't post automatically. You decide what gets added to your books.

- Match means the transaction already exists in QuickBooks. You're simply matching it to the bank transaction.

- Categorize means the transaction is new, and you're telling QuickBooks where it belongs.

- AI suggestions can save time, but always review them before accepting.

Think of bank feeds like a helpful assistant. They can save you a lot of time, but you're still the one making the final decisions.

Always review transactions before accepting them into your books.

How do I qualify for a business loan?

Lenders typically look at your credit history, time in business, revenue, cash flow, and financial records to determine if you qualify.

How much can I borrow for my business?

The amount depends on your business's income, cash flow, existing debt, creditworthiness, and the lender's requirements.

What documents do I need to apply?

Most lenders will ask for:
- Financial statements
- Business tax returns
- Bank statements
- Profit and Loss Statement
- Balance Sheet
- Business plan (for some loans)

Having accurate, up to date financial records can make the application process much smoother and improve your chances of approval.

Thinking about applying for a business loan? Let us help you get your books organized and your financial reports lender ready.
