Does this sound familiar?

You check the bank balance instead of reports, because the reports don't seem to match reality.
Tax time is a scramble every single year, and you're never sure what your preparer is going to find.
You suspect the books are off, but you don't know where, and you're not paying somebody for an undisclosed amount of billable hours to wander around in your books looking.
Somebody quoted you a "cleanup" once. The price changed twice before they finished.

None of that is on you. Nobody ever checked the whole thing, top to bottom, and told you plainly what they found.

Here's everything you get

75 individual checks across your bookkeeping software and your business foundations. Entity standing, banking separation, reconciliations, your chart of accounts, whether your books tie to your last tax return. Every check scored Pass, Flag, or Fail.
A scored report in plain English. Eight sections, each graded. You'll know exactly where you stand, and every "I don't know" gets answered.
A fixed-price fix quote. Almost every problem we find is one we can help you solve. We generate the list, and you choose how to move forward.
A free DIY list. The stuff you can fix yourself in an afternoon, we tell you how. No charge. That includes any money we find that nobody ever invoiced.
A 30-minute walkthrough call. The report lands in your inbox first, so you read it on your own time. Then we go through it together.

All in, that's ten-plus hours of our time on your books. At our hourly rates you'd be north of $1,000 before the report was half done. The Checkup is $500, flat, up front, no meter running. And it credits toward the fix work if you hire us for it.

Read-only. We don't touch anything in your books during the Checkup. Where a finding touches tax strategy, we flag it and point you to your CPA. We do bookkeeping and financial systems; the tax advice stays with your tax pro.

Who's doing the checking

Frank Fontenot, Sturdy Numbers

Based in Baton Rouge. I run the books and build the financial systems for HVAC and plumbing shops across south Louisiana, and every Checkup is done by me, not handed to an offshore team. Veteran-owned, and when we get on the walkthrough call, you're talking to the person who actually went through your books.

How it works

Buy the Checkup, get your link

One link with two things on it: a 30-minute voice interview you take on your own schedule, and a secure upload spot for your statements and read-only access to your books.

We run all 75 checks

Seven business days. You'll get a first finding by email within two or three days, so you can begin taking action before the report ever lands.

Report first, then we talk

The scored report and the quote hit your inbox a couple days before our call. Read it on your own. Then 30 minutes together and you decide what happens next.

Our guarantee

If we don't find at least three things worth fixing, you don't pay.

Say so at your walkthrough call and the full $500 comes back to your card. No forms, no argument. And if your books turn out clean? You'll know that for a fact, for the first time.

The Full Financial Review, 120 checkpoints

Everything in the Checkup, plus the questions a Checkup can't answer. Which type of work actually pays. When cash is going to get tight, and why it keeps happening to you. Whether your prices have kept up. Your break-even, and what your next hire has to bring in before they earn their keep. You also get a live dashboard built off your real numbers and a 90-day plan.

$1,000, and it counts. Start monthly service with us inside 15 days and the whole thing credits to your first month.

Common Questions

What if my books are a total disaster?

Then you're exactly who this is for. The worse the books, the more the fixed-price quote matters, because you're the person hourly cleanup billing takes advantage of.

Is this a sales pitch for your bookkeeping service?

It's a real deliverable you pay for and keep, whether or not we ever talk again. Plenty of owners take the report and the DIY list and run it themselves or hand it to their current bookkeeper. That's a fine outcome. If you do want us to fix what we find, the fix quote is fixed-price and your $500 credits against it in full.

How much of my time does this take?

About 90 minutes total. A 30-minute voice interview on your schedule, a few uploads, and a 30-minute walkthrough call at the end. We do the rest.

Is my financial information safe?

Your documents go into a private, encrypted portal, encrypted in transit and at rest. We get read-only access to your bookkeeping software, which you can revoke with one click the moment we're done. We never ask for a bank login, ever.

Can you see my bank accounts?

No. You upload statements and give us read-only access to your bookkeeping software, QuickBooks or whatever you use. We can look but we can't touch, and we change nothing during the Checkup.

Do you do my taxes?

No. We do bookkeeping and financial systems. When a finding touches tax strategy, we size it, flag it, and point you to a CPA or enrolled agent. If you don't have one, we know good ones here in Baton Rouge.
