Bookkeeping Cleanup

“What’s the best way to clean up my books before an investor looks at them?”

CommonDeep Dive · 60 min · $170

Before an investor review, bookkeeping cleanup often focuses on making the records consistent, supportable, and easy to follow. Common factors include whether bank and credit card accounts are fully reconciled, whether older transactions have been properly categorized, and whether balance sheet items such as loans, payroll, or owner contributions match the underlying records. The level of cleanup also depends on how far back the books need to be reviewed and how formal the investor process is. In many cases, the goal is to reduce surprises, document adjustments clearly, and make the financial story easier to understand. Sitting down with a CPA for thirty minutes is usually enough to draw a clean line on this.
