Accounts Receivable (A/R) is money customers owe your business for products or services you’ve already provided.

Accounts Payable (A/P) is money your business owes vendors and suppliers for bills you haven’t paid yet.

Why should you pay attention to both?

Because overdue invoices can hurt your cash flow, while unpaid bills can lead to late fees and strained vendor relationships.

Review your A/R and A/P regularly so you know what needs to be collected and what needs to be paid.

What’s ONE business task you would happily never do again?

Your best subcontractors remember who pays on time.

And they remember who doesn't.

You've spent years building relationships with reliable trades. The electrician who shows up when promised. The plumber who handles the unexpected. The trim carpenter who makes everything look right.

Those relationships are valuable.

But when invoices get buried in emails, approvals sit untouched, or payments are constantly delayed, those relationships can take a hit.

Sometimes the issue isn't a lack of money.

It's a lack of process.

A consistent accounts payable workflow helps you:

✔ Keep vendor bills organized and accounted for

✔ Know what's approved and what's still pending

✔ Plan payments around available cash flow

✔ Maintain accurate job costs

Good financial systems don't just make your bookkeeper happy. They help your entire operation run more smoothly.

At 5and2 Business Services, I believe your accounting processes should support the way you build—not slow you down.

Happy Spreadsheet Day!

Today is Spreadsheet Day, so of course we have to celebrate one of our favorite business tools!

And if you own a business, chances are you have at least ONE spreadsheet you couldn’t live without!?

Do you love spreadsheets or do spreadsheets stress you out?

That $5,000 change order might not be worth $5,000.

Your client decides to upgrade the countertops halfway through a remodel.

You price the change order, get approval, and move forward.

Simple enough, right?

But what about the additional labor? The schedule adjustment? The extra material delivery? Or the subcontractor who had to make a second trip?

Those costs add up.

And if they're not being tracked against that change order, you might be celebrating additional revenue while quietly losing margin.

Change orders should increase your contract value without creating surprises in your profitability.

That means capturing ALL the associated costs—not just the obvious ones.

For custom builders and remodelers, accurate job costing isn't just about knowing what you've spent. It's about understanding what each project decision means for your bottom line.

Are your change orders protecting your margins—or just adding to your workload?

Profitable job. Empty bank account?

It happens more often than you might think in construction.

You've got a solid contract, your margins look good, and the next customer draw is scheduled.

But your subs need to be paid Friday. Materials are due Monday. And that next draw? It's still two weeks away.

Here's the thing: A profitable project doesn't automatically mean positive cash flow.

Your draw schedule tells you when you expect to collect money. Your cash flow plan helps you understand whether you'll have enough available to cover expenses along the way.

For custom home builders and remodelers, that distinction matters.

When you understand what's coming in, what's going out, and *when*, you can make better decisions without constantly shifting money between projects.

At 5and2 Business Services, I help construction business owners gain the financial visibility they need to plan ahead.

Are you managing cash flow proactively, or waiting for the next draw to hit?

Happy National Coffee Day!

Because running a business without coffee sounds like an unnecessary challenge.

What’s your go to coffee order?

Why your "gut feeling" is costing you money.

I hear it all the time: "I know how my business is doing because I'm on site every day."

And I get it—you do know the work. But construction accounting is a different beast. Relying on "gut feelings" about project margins is exactly how small leaks become major cash flow problems.

If you're at the $1M-$2.5M revenue mark, you’re in a critical growth phase. You need more than just a history report of what you spent—you need forward-looking, real-time job costing.

I’m here to help you move from "chaos mode" to "control mode" so you can focus on building, not bookkeeping.
