🦃 Serving up a little peace of mind this November!

The holidays are right around the corner, the year is winding down, and before we know it, the tax man is trying to bully his way past Ole' Saint Nick.

Things have been picking up here at Perch Bookkeeping, and we're incredibly grateful for the business owners who have trusted us to be part of their team!

With that said, we have just TWO openings remaining for November onboarding!

Whether your books need a little tidying up or you're ready to hand off the monthly bookkeeping altogether, we'd love to help you head into the new year feeling organized, confident, and a little less stressed.

Two seats left at our table. Who's trying to eat? 🦃

📩 Give us a holler. We'd love to be on each other's team.

This right here, is why I love the power of bookkeeping.

Not because reconciling bank accounts is exciting. Well, it is to me when everything lines up beautifully. 😂

But because good bookkeeping can become so much more than simply keeping transactions organized.

One of my nonprofit clients is preparing to approach their donors about potentially helping fund their next year of operations. Because we've spent the year keeping their books organized, we were able to take their actual numbers, break down what it currently costs to operate, identify where funding has limited their mission, and build out what a fully funded year could realistically look like.

That turned into a $180,000 funding proposal.

And yes, that number gave all of us a little bit of a "big gulp" moment.

But we didn't pick $180,000 because it simply sounded good. We worked our way there.

We used their actual spending. Their recurring expenses. Their goals for next year. The programs they want to expand. The people they want to reach. And then we turned all of that into something organized, understandable, and backed by real numbers.

Hopefully, that presentation helps produce a sizeable donation. But regardless of what happens, this is the value of having good books.

Your bookkeeping shouldn't just tell you what happened last month.

It should give you the information you need to make the next decision, tell your story, and show someone else exactly where their dollar could go.

Getting an email like this afterward certainly doesn't hurt either. 💁‍♂️

If your books are technically "done," but you have no idea what they're actually telling you, give us a holler.

Drake's accountant calling to ask about two $150,000 charges for "suits"...

Drake: 😬

Meanwhile, he's running around the 6 in a custom Iron Man suit.

I felt this one in my soul. 😂

One of the conversations I probably have most often with clients is simple: please stop mixing personal and business purchases.

And believe it or not, my biggest concern isn't even having to clean it up in QuickBooks. That's the easy part.

My concern is protecting the separation between you and your business. If you formed an LLC for liability protection, don't make a habit of treating the business bank account like your personal wallet. Keeping clean financial separation is one of the simplest habits you can build to help preserve that distinction.

So yes, buy the Iron Man suit if your heart desires.

Just maybe don't make your accountant or bookkeeper call you to figure out why there are $300,000 worth of suits on the company card. 😂

And if your books currently have a few Iron Man suits hiding in them, you don't need FOMO, Perch Bookkeeping is happy to help clean things up. 🪶

Some clean up work doesn't show up on an invoice.

Every now and then I'll come across months that were never included in my engagement. Technically, I could leave them alone. But if they're throwing off the financials, then they're throwing off the history the numbers are trying to tell.

I care too much about accuracy to look the other way. It is that type of itch that can't be scratched until completed. Keeps me up at night, staring at the ceiling like I am embodying the Zach Galifianakis meme. 👀🔢 🔮

Clean books lead to better decisions, fewer surprises, and more confidence in where a business's foundation actually stands.

It's one of those behind-the-scenes parts of bookkeeping that most people never see, but it's exactly why I love what I do. For the love of game, ya' smell me?

If your books haven't been touched in a while, or you've always had a feeling something just isn't quite right, I'd be happy to take a look.

The Why? 💭

Team USA ran out of time before they could call their dark horse off the bench last night and onto the pitch.

The good news? There's still plenty of time to get your books in order before the second half of the year kicks into full swing.

We're approaching that halfway mark of the match. Do you know where your profit, cash flow, and expenses stand, or are you waiting for year-end to find out the score? 🫣

Over the last 2 weeks, I stepped away from the desk and hopped back on the sticks completing my annual Active Duty Training with the United States Coast Guard Reserve. It's a two-week requirement each year, and the reason things have been a little quieter than normal around here.

For those who may not know, right out of college, I spent 10 years on active duty in the Coast Guard before transitioning into civilian life. Those years shaped who I am as a husband, father, and business owner far more than I probably realized at the time.

One of the questions I get asked most often is, "Do you miss it?"

The easy answer is yes.

There's a saying that goes, "You miss the monkeys, but not the zoo," and there's certainly truth to that. The Coast Guard is its own world. The pace, the teamwork, the sense of purpose, and the community are difficult to replicate anywhere else. One of the hardest parts of transitioning out wasn't the work itself. It was losing the daily collaboration, banter and camaraderie that had become normal for a decade.

Looking back, I think that's one of the reasons entrepreneurship ended up being such a natural fit for me.

While the setting looks different these days, the mission feels familiar. I still get to work alongside people, solve problems, bring order to chaos, and help others move toward their goals. The uniform may have changed, but the fulfillment that comes from serving others never really went away.

Bookkeeping might be a quieter role than having the watch or responding to middle of the night calls, but every time I help a business owner gain clarity, reduce stress, or make a better decision for their company, that cup gets filled all the same.

KFG. 🤙🏽
