Sound familiar?
The stuff that keeps contractors up at 2am
Your P&L says profitable. Your bank account disagrees. Revenue is vanity — cash flow is reality.
Change orders get approved in the field then vanish between your PM and bookkeeper. Money earned, never billed.
Buildertrend says one thing. QuickBooks says another. You're double-entering numbers and neither system is right.
Revenue went up 40%. You should be celebrating. Instead you're more cash-strapped than when you were smaller.
These aren't signs you're bad at business. They're signs you've outgrown your financial systems.
What's Inside
7 guides. Same frameworks we use with $2M+ contractors.
We're giving these away because contractors who understand their numbers make better clients — and because we'd rather help 500 for free than hard-sell 5.

What happened when we opened Zach's books
Zach's company looked profitable on the P&L. Change orders were approved but never invoiced. AR was running 52 days. Job costs were guesswork. We ran our audit, found the leaks, and built the systems.
The audit system Zach used is Guide #2 in the vault. Same checklist. Same framework.
Who This Is For
Built for a very specific contractor.
This is for you if:
- You're between $500K–$10M in revenue
- You've outgrown your bookkeeper but can't justify a $150K CFO
- You use Buildertrend, Procore, CoConstruct, or Knowify
- You're tired of "profitable on paper, broke in real life"
- Builder, remodeler, GC, specialty trade, or developer
Probably not for you if:
- Under $250K and still figuring out operations
- Not in construction (these systems are industry-specific)
- Already have a fractional controller handling all of this
- Looking for tax prep (we work alongside your CPA)
What Actually Changes
Imagine opening your dashboard and it actually makes sense.
Monday morning. Every job's profitability is right there — real-time, not three months late. PM approves a change order; it's queued for invoicing before you finish your coffee. Your bonding agent calls for a WIP schedule — you pull it up in 30 seconds.

Questions contractors ask us
No catch. The vault shows you exactly how to fix your financial systems. Some contractors do it themselves. Others realize they'd rather hand it off. Either way, you win. We'd rather earn trust with 85 pages of real help than a flashy sales pitch.
It's the real playbook — same audit checklists, setup frameworks, and cash flow strategies we use with paying clients. We give everything away except the implementation.
Probably more so. Most bookkeepers are great at categorizing expenses. Construction needs job costing, WIP reporting, retainage tracking, and PM-to-QuickBooks integration — that's controller-level work. The vault shows you the difference.
A few helpful follow-up emails showing where to start. If you want to talk, we're here. If not, enjoy the guides. We're not going to chase you.
$500K–$10M revenue. The "Graduation Gap" — you've outgrown a basic bookkeeper but aren't ready for a $150K/year CFO. These guides are built for that exact stage.
You're already doing the hard part.
Let's get the financial side working as hard as you do.
