WHAT LEDGERPLAIN HANDLES

The work behind
your month.

Separate the routine work from the questions that need your judgment.

See the service scope

Bookkeeping and reporting. Tax filing, audit, legal and investment advice are separate services.

THE RESPONSIBILITY LINE
ORGANIZE

Bring the records together.

Structure the invoices, payments and expenses you provide. Agree what belongs in the monthly routine.

REVIEW

Reconcile within scope.

Carry out the agreed reconciliation work. Keep unresolved items visible rather than guessing.

HAND OVER

Explain what comes back.

A readable report, plain definitions and specific questions for your input.

WHAT YOU RECEIVE

Numbers with context.
Questions with a place.

In this small fictional example, the outstanding balance is an item to review—not a conclusion about the business.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

A conversation.
Before a commitment.

Tell us the kind of business you run, the support you’re looking for, and where your records stand. Then define the responsibilities together.
