In this case study, we’ll explore how Ledge Accounting helped Jamie, a fitness studio owner, who struggled with keeping his financials in order. Jamie’s story highlights the transformative benefits of partnering with an experienced bookkeeping team, including accurate monthly financials, time savings, and peace of mind.

The Challenge: Staying on Top of Complex Financials

Jamie Carpi, a fitness studio owner, was focused on creating a welcoming and effective space for his clients. However, like many business owners, he found himself swamped with managing financial records at the end of each month. Between supervising his team, planning new programs, and handling day-to-day operations, there was little time left to dive deep into his financials.

Jamie relied on platforms like Mindbody, ClubReady, and Mariana Tek to handle bookings, memberships, and transactions. These platforms were crucial for the studio’s daily operations but didn’t simplify the process of creating accurate monthly financials. Transactions still required manual reconciliation to ensure accuracy—a time-consuming task that Jamie found challenging to keep up with.

Each month, Jamie spent hours on manual reconciliation and revenue breakdown, often feeling uncertain about the accuracy of his financials. He needed a reliable way to get accurate reports without sacrificing valuable time on bookkeeping.

The Solution: Ledge Accounting’s Bookkeeping Services

After researching different options, Jamie decided to work with Ledge Accounting, a bookkeeping service that specializes in fitness studios. The team at Ledge Accounting understood the unique financial needs of fitness businesses and knew how to efficiently pull data from platforms like Mindbody, ClubReady, and Mariana Tek to deliver clear and accurate financial reports.

  4. Peace of Mind During Tax Season: In previous years, tax season had been a source of stress for Jamie as he scrambled to gather records. With Ledge’s proactive support, Jamie had all his documentation ready well before deadlines, making the tax filing process much smoother.
