What this course covers

Chris's firm runs bookkeeping for roughly 200 clients with two people. This course explains the operating model: which clients fit, the engagement rules, and how work moves through a month and a year.

The thesis is simple: agents do the work, humans only see exceptions. You build the automated month, the review-close-deliver standard, and the year-end handoffs into tax — the theory the LedgerHQ deep dive builds on.

What you leave with

Fit rules, engagement scope, monthly review standards, and year-end rhythm.

Included with the course

  • Full video lessons taught from real firm workflows
  • Module resources, worksheets, and implementation notes
  • A concrete next step for your firm after every module
  • Lifetime access after you open the course — no subscription required
