Don’t gamble with your books.
Bookkeeping and fractional CFO work, fine-tuned to how your business actually runs and built on modern tools. Every month closed on a fixed day. Every number in front of you.

Four services. One running order.
Most people come for the first and end up wanting the second. Each one has a page that says exactly what is included and in what order it happens.
The forward view a CFO client gets every week: thirteen weeks of cash, so a thin week is a plan rather than a surprise. Illustrative figures, drawn to look like a seasonal business.
Three sectors.
How an engagement runs, from the first call to the twelfth close. The first two cost you nothing.
Diagnose
S1A free call, then I open the books and tell you plainly what shape they are in, including the part where you are further behind than you thought.

Built like a race team, not a bank.
Some accounting speaks bank. This practice speaks speed, precision and the right tools, because that is what a small business actually needs from its numbers.
Speed
Books closed on a fixed day every month, not when the shoebox fills up. A question answered the day you ask it. No hourly meter running while you wait.
Precision
Every account reconciled to the statement before a single number is reported. If the balance is not right, nothing else on the page is, so that is where the work starts.
Technology
Run on QuickBooks Online and Financial Cents, connected so the same number is never typed twice. This site answers questions from its own content, so you can ask at midnight and get a straight answer.
Who this is for.
Owner-operators, family businesses and small crews, anywhere in the United States.
- You need a fractional CFO and cannot justify a full-time one.
- You have been winging the financials and are too busy to keep up.
- You need a financial system, not a pile of transactions and a CPA asking for them in March.
- Your revenue swings with the season and you want a plan for the quiet months before they arrive.

If you hire Ace Financial, you work with me.
I learned finance in a business that never closes: a hotel, on thin margins, heavy payroll and demand that swings with the season. When I read your statements I see shifts, staffing and vendor terms, not just accounts.
