JOIN THE GATHERING

Most of us run our businesses on a feeling about the numbers rather than the numbers themselves. This one puts the people who actually read them in the room — a bookkeeper, an accountant, and a financial planner — walking through what they wish every business owner knew before year-end.

Bring the questions you’ve been avoiding. There’s room to ask them out loud.

Date, time & speakers to come — this is the shape of the day.

Schedule

The Rhythm

01

What Your Books Are Telling You · with a Bookkeeper

The numbers you should be able to find in under a minute, what clean books actually look like, and the small habits that make year-end feel routine instead of frantic.

02

The Tax Conversation · with an Accountant

Write-offs, structure, and timing — what’s worth doing before December 31st, what changes as you grow, and where owners most often leave money on the table.

03

Paying Yourself & Planning Ahead · with a Financial Planner

Owner pay, savings, and what to do with a good year — building a plan that holds whether 2027 is your biggest year or your slowest.

04

Open Q&A & Connection

The part you can’t get from a podcast: your specific question, answered in the room. Light refreshments, mentorship, and time with humans navigating the same decisions.

Reframe your numbers. Walk into 2027 knowing where you stand.
