Solocount
Contractor organizing financial records at a clean desk
One-time · $700 USD

Start fresh with
your finances sorted.

One focused engagement to go through what you have, organize it properly, and set up a system you can actually keep up with — then hand it back to you with a written guide for what comes next.

What this gives you

Records in order. A system that holds. A guide you can follow.

When this engagement is complete, your existing financial records are sorted and stored in a way that actually makes sense. Invoices where you'd expect to find them, receipts categorized, bank records matched up and accounted for.

More than that — you'll have a tracking system configured and ready, and a written guide that explains how to keep it current yourself. Not a dependency on an ongoing service, but the tools and understanding to manage it going forward.

Records sorted

Receipts, invoices, and bank records gone through and organized into a logical structure.

System configured

Simple tracking tools set up with the categories that fit how you actually work.

Written guide included

A clear reference document for how to maintain the system yourself going forward.

One fixed price

A single engagement at a known cost — no ongoing commitment required after completion.

Where most contractors find themselves

The records exist — they're just not organized.

Receipts in multiple places

Some in email, some photographed and sitting in a camera roll, some on paper in a drawer. You know they exist, but pulling them together when you need them takes longer than it should.

No consistent tracking habit

You've tried a few different approaches — a spreadsheet, an app, just keeping bank statements — but nothing has stuck long enough to become routine.

The backlog that keeps growing

Months of transactions that haven't been categorized. The longer it sits, the more daunting it looks. It's the kind of task that's easy to keep postponing.

Starting fresh feels complicated

You'd like a clean system, but setting one up properly — one that will actually hold — takes more time and thinking than you want to give it right now.

This situation is genuinely common among independent contractors. You're focused on your work, not on building an accounting infrastructure. This engagement is designed to take that off your plate in one go.

What we do

We go through what you have and build from there.

This isn't a consultation or a set of recommendations to act on yourself. It's practical, hands-on work: going through your existing records, organizing them, setting up the tools, and writing down exactly how to maintain the system. You hand us a pile; we hand back something workable.

01

Review of existing records

Receipts, invoices, and bank records are gone through systematically — regardless of what format they're currently in or how far back they go.

02

Categorized folders set up

Everything is organized into a clear folder structure — by year, by type, by client where applicable. Labeled in a way that makes sense for how you work.

03

Tracking tools configured

Simple, practical tools — nothing requiring a learning curve — set up with the categories that fit your type of contracting work and ready for you to start using.

04

Written maintenance guide delivered

A clear, plain-language document explaining how the system is set up, what to do with each type of record as it comes in, and how to keep things current month to month.

What to expect

A contained engagement with a clear end point.

Unlike ongoing services, this one has a defined start and finish. You'll know when we're done because you'll have the organized records, the configured system, and the written guide in hand. There's no ambiguity about what "complete" looks like.

We work with what you have

No need to pre-sort or prepare anything before handing things over. We start from wherever you currently are.

Questions as we go

If something is unclear — a transaction, a vendor, a recurring charge — we'll ask. The goal is accuracy, not assumptions.

Delivered and done

When the engagement is complete, everything is returned to you — organized, documented, and yours to maintain from that point forward.

Typical turnaround is one to two weeks from when we receive your records, depending on volume. We'll give you a more specific timeline after the initial conversation.

Pricing

One fixed price. No ongoing fees.

$700 USD

Single payment — complete engagement, no ongoing obligation.

One-time only

What's included:

  • Review and sorting of existing receipts, invoices, and bank records
  • Categorized folder structure set up and organized
  • Simple tracking tools configured for your work type
  • Written maintenance guide for keeping the system current
  • Follow-up questions answered for 14 days after delivery

If your records go back several years or involve an unusually high volume of transactions, we'll discuss that in the initial conversation and confirm whether the standard engagement covers it.

Why it holds

A system built around how you actually work.

Generic financial organization templates don't account for how contractors actually earn and spend. The tracking tools and folder structure we set up are shaped around your specific type of work — not a one-size approach that you'll outgrow or abandon within a month.

Relevance

Categories that match your work

A developer's expenses look different from a consultant's or a designer's. The system is set up around the categories that matter for your situation — not a default list of accounting line items.

Simplicity

Low effort to maintain

The tools we configure are ones you can keep up with in a few minutes a week, not something that requires dedicated time or accounting knowledge to operate.

Documentation

Written so you can refer back

The guide is written in plain language and structured so you can look up exactly what to do with any type of record without having to remember a verbal explanation.

Foundation

Ready for tax time from here

With organized records and a working tracking system, you're in a substantially better position heading into tax season — whether you handle it yourself or work with an accountant.

Our commitment

Delivered completely, or we keep working.

The engagement is complete when all three deliverables are in place: organized records, a working tracking system, and a written maintenance guide. If any of those aren't fully done when we hand things back, we finish the job.

The 14-day follow-up period after delivery is there precisely because questions come up once you start using the system yourself. You're not expected to figure it all out on your own from the guide alone — you can ask, and we'll answer.

All three deliverables included

14 days of follow-up support

No surprise scope additions

Getting started

Send a note and we'll take it from there.

01

Get in touch

Fill in the contact form. Tell us roughly how far back your unorganized records go and what format most of them are in — digital, paper, or a mix.

02

Quick intake call

We go over what you have, confirm the scope, and agree on a timeline. Usually a short exchange — no long intake process.

03

We get to work

You share access to your records, we work through them, and return everything organized — along with the configured tools and written guide.

There's no complicated prerequisite before reaching out. The messier the records, the more useful this is. Start wherever you are.
