Sound familiar?

Running a business is hard enough.

Your finances shouldn't be the thing keeping you up at night. Here's the shift we make.

Before Insight


With Insight


What we do

Three jobs. One team that does them well.

The whole accounting function, handled.

Clean books, on-time payroll, sales tax, and compliance — done for you every month so the foundation is never the thing slowing you down.

Plan ahead. Keep more of what you earn.

We model your year before it happens, so April is a non-event. Proactive strategy for the business and the people who own it.

A partner who reads the numbers with you.

Think of it as a fractional CFO. We translate your financials into the two or three decisions that actually move the business.

Who we work with best

We know the industries you run in.

Generic accounting misses what makes your business tick. These are the sectors we live in — so the advice fits the way your money really moves.

Energy (Oil & Gas)

Working interests, depletion, and lumpy cash flow— books and a tax plan built for how energy money actually moves.

Construction

Job costing, retainage, and progress billing handled, so you know the margin on every project — not just at year end.

Real Estate

Entity structure, cost segregation, and depreciation strategy across your properties, partnerships, and deals.

Service Businesses

Software, medical, legal, and professional firms — clean books and proactive planning tuned to a people-and-billables model.

Where we earn our keep

The decisions we're built for.

Anyone can file a return. We earn our seat in the room for the calls that actually move your business — and your life. These are the questions we sit across the table and answer with you.

What should we do before year-end, not after?

A proactive tax checklist that gets moves made while they still count — not a scramble in April.

Bring on a partner — or buy one out?

Valuation, deal structure, and the real tax consequences, laid out in plain numbers.

Are we pricing the job to actually make money?

Real job costing, so the margin on every project is a number you know — not a guess.

How much can I actually pay myself?

Owner compensation balanced against your taxes, your goals, and the runway the business needs.

Is it time to restructure the entity?

S-corp, partnership, holding company — the right structure for where you’re actually headed.

What’s it worth, and when do I sell?

Exit-ready books and a number you can plan the rest of your life around.

how we work

A simple rhythm that keeps you on target.

01

Take Aim

We get clarity on where you are and where you want to go — clean numbers, real goals, the target on the wall.

02

Build the Plan

A proactive tax and financial plan mapped across the year, so nothing sneaks up on you and every dollar has a job.

03

Take Action

We execute and check in regularly, translating the numbers into the two or three moves that matter most this quarter.

How an engagement works

What working with us actually looks like.

A clear, repeatable rhythm — built around quarters, not tax season. You always know what comes next.

We accept a handful of new engagements each quarter so every client gets partner-level attention.

A limited roster, by design

It starts with fit

FIRST

Most relationships begin with a referral or a short application. We take on a limited number of new clients each quarter — so we start by making sure we’re genuinely the right partner for you.

Onboarding

FIRST 30 DAYS

We clean up the books, take payroll and compliance off your plate, and build the year’s tax and financial plan around your goals — so the foundation is solid from day one.

A quarterly rhythm

EVERY QUARTER

We sit down together, review where the numbers actually landed, and agree on the two or three moves that matter most for the next 90 days. No surprises, no rear-view-mirror accounting.

On call between meetings

ALWAYS

When a real decision lands on your desk, you reach your partners directly — not a portal, not a call center. That’s the whole point of working this way.

OUR ADVISORY METHODOLOGY

The Path to High-Touch Alignment

A deliberate, selective engagement process built to guarantee deep concentration, flawless execution, and continuous strategic partner attention.

FIT

1. First: Alignment & Selectivity

Our dynamic starts with a strict fit assessment. We maintain highly selective caps, only accepting a limited number of new clients per quarter via referral or qualification application.

30 DAYS

2. First 30 Days: Onboarding & Architecture

No delay, no drag. During our first month we jump straight into data cleanup, onboarding legacy documentation, and drafting your tailored master blueprint and operational plans.

QUARTER

3. Every Quarter: Precision Iteration

Consistency yields compounding success. Each quarter, we review primary execution numbers, reconcile your strategic balance sheet, and agree on high-priority targets for the next 90 days.

ALWAYS

4. Always: Direct Partner Access

True partnership lives in the spaces between. You get continuous, direct partner access between scheduled meetings—meaning zero portal barriers, zero call-center queues, and pure focus.

A considered engagement, not a price list.

Anyone can file a return. We earn our seat in the room for the calls that actually move your business — and your life. These are the questions we sit across the table and answer with you.

Engagement levels

Foundations

The right start — clean books and compliance, with the same partner-level care.

For owners building the base


For Scaling teams

Growth

Use your numbers to make smarter calls, month after month.


For established companies

Advisory + CFO

A strategic partner in your corner for the big decisions.


Engagements are scoped and quoted privately, and fixed monthly once we begin; one-time work like cleanup is scoped separately — you always approve it before we start.

Josh Waggoner

Partner · CPA

Not your classic CPA firm.

We pair the rigor of a great accounting team with the plain-English advice of a partner who’s genuinely in your corner — turning your numbers into the next move, not just a tidy report.

The insight difference

You work directly with partners

We’re a two-partner firm. The people who build your plan are a call or email away — no gatekeepers, no account reps, no portal in between.

Year-round, not just at tax time

We meet through the year so decisions get made with current numbers — not a rear-view mirror.

Pricing you agree to upfront

Most engagements are a flat monthly fee. When work is hourly — like cleanup bookkeeping — we scope it first, so there’s no invoice anxiety.

Plain-English Always

We translate the accounting into the two or three moves that actually matter for your business.

Entrepreneurs shape

communities.

When we help a founder make a better decision, the impact doesn’t stop at their bottom line. It reaches their team, their customers, and the neighborhoods their business calls home. Serving entrepreneurs well is how we help whole communities thrive — and it’s why we built Insight.
