If you're a business owner who wants 2026 to be your best year yet, you need to be running these reports EVERY month:

📊 Profit + Loss (P&L) → shows your income, expenses, and your profit (or loss).

📊 Balance Sheet → an overview of your assets, liabilities, and how much you truly *own* of your business.

📊 Cash Flow → shows how cash is moving into + out of your business.

📊 A/R Aging → shows who owes you money (if you invoice your clients).

📊 A/P Aging → shows whom you owe money to!

If you want to run your business like a true CEO in 2026, you need numbers you can rely on (and I can help!). 📚

The KEY to creating a budget for your business that you'll actually stick to?

Giving yourself flexibility!

I'll be the first to admit, I get a little hard on myself when I go over budget...

And when I *know* I'm going over budget, it's easy to fall into the trap of simply not looking at my numbers at all.

But I beat that trap by giving myself grace! 🫶

When I pull up my bookkeeping to compare how much I actually spent vs. what I budgeted, if there's a really good reason I went over in a certain expense category, I simply adjust my budget for that moving forward.

The budget you create in January doesn't have to be your set-in-stone spending for 2026; it should adapt with your business as life happens!

Here's a not-so-secret secret thing that successful business owners do: They rely on their data to drive their decisions.

They know their profit margin, highest expense categories, and biggest revenue sources. 💸

They aren't guessing whether they can afford that new subscription or how much they should save for taxes! 👀

Your bookkeeping is NOT just for taxes; it's a wealth of information that you *could* be using to grow your business in 2026.

Hot take: the biggest win my business clients get is NOT done-for-you bookkeeping...

It's the insane amount of mental space they get back when they don't have their bookkeeping weighing on the back of their minds.

All of a sudden, my clients no longer worry about:

🧠 Reconciling their accounts on a random Sunday night.

🧠 Googling whether that new office chair is a write-off.

🧠 Stressing when their CPA asks for their financials.

My monthly bookkeeping for your business starts at $400/month... what's your peace of mind worth? 👀

I was today years old when I learned that Door Dash drivers only get paid what you tip them. 😳

You know the vibes when all your transactions are automatically syncing + everything reconciles down to the penny?

Here's how you get there as a business owner who wants to do their own bookkeeping: ↓

1️⃣ Sync your bank accounts to your bookkeeping software.

2️⃣ For each transaction, double-check that it's categorized correctly. For example, an Amazon order for printer paper would be "Office Supplies", or a Google ad would be "Marketing".

3️⃣ Confirm auto-rules or matched credit card payments are correct before accepting them.

4️⃣ If your sales are being pulled in from your CRM or payment processor, check to make sure nothing is double-counted!

5️⃣ Upload + attach receipts for big/unusual purchases to the appropriate transaction.

6️⃣ Reconcile your accounts to ensure each account matches its source document (like a bank or CC statement).

7️⃣ Run your financial reports and benchmark your performance towards your 2026 goals.

*Pssst* Don't wanna worry about all that? If you hire me, I'll do all the behind-the-scenes work that ends with you getting your financial reports delivered to your inbox every month instead! 📧

Your chart of accounts is the foundation of your business... so if it's a hot mess?

Well, you can guess what that means for your bookkeeping! 🫠

A clean, customized chart of accounts means you'll get clean, customized insights into your business.

Plus, when it's obvious what expenses + income belong in each account, it's waaay easier for ANYONE to do your bookkeeping. 📚

P.S. I don't talk about it very often, but I do offer a [your preferred software] set-up service that includes a custom chart of accounts for your business.

If it's giving stress, bookkeeping burnout, or misalignment... it is OUT in 2026! 👋

2026 is the year for:

→ Outsourcing outside of your zone of genius (aka buying back your time)

→ Paying yourself consistently

→ Saying "no" to things that aren't bringing you joy in your business

→ Tapping into your soft CEO era

2026 is the year your business helps you achieve your dream life! 🌟
