accounting
Your books already exist. They are just in the wrong shape.design partner
The operation records every trip, payment, and guide day as it happens. Closing the month should be reading that, not rebuilding it from bank statements in February.
Outfitting is a hard business to keep books for, and most bookkeepers have never seen one
Contractor guides, deposits taken a year ahead, cash at the ramp, permit fees, seasonal everything. A generalist bookkeeper spends the first year learning your business and bills you for it.
We already hold the operational record. We think the accounting should come off that, with people who understand why a deposit in November is not November revenue.
what we are building
The shape of it
Books off the operation
Revenue, payouts, and fees from the trips themselves. Far less re-entry, and far fewer numbers that do not tie.
Guide pay and 1099s that already reconcile
The pay run and the books are the same record, so January stops being a reconstruction.
Deposits treated correctly
Money taken this year for next season is a liability, not a good month. Getting that right changes what you think your business is doing.
People who have seen a season
You should not have to explain shoulder season, permit fees, or why the guide is not an employee.
the platform underneath
Operations running on Brindlechute today
The service is new. The operations behind it are not.
Build this with us
We are working with a handful of operations to get this right first. If closing your books is a February problem, tell us what it looks like.
