Memberships, trainers, and retail that reconcile. QuickBooks, QuickBooks, fixed fee. Free assessment.
Austin scales faster than its back office — revenue arrives before the systems do, and the books are usually the last thing to catch up. For gyms and fitness studios across Travis County — from downtown and South Congress to the Domain and East Austin — that shows up as failed drafts, refunds, and comps from your billing platform make revenue impossible to trust and per-class, per-session, and employee trainers all mix together — payroll never reconciles to sessions
Steven Palmieri works remotely with Austin owners in a market defined by a technology-and-startup boom layered over hospitality and creative small business. We reconcile your billing platform (Mindbody, Wodify, PushPress) to the bank, separate recurring vs. one-time revenue, and clean up trainer pay. You get a documented before/after trail your CPA can verify — no offshore rush job, no judgment about how far behind the books have slipped.
You're not bad at business. The books just stopped telling the truth about memberships and the front desk.
Freezes, fails, and proration mean the membership total never matches the bank.
Sessions, packages, and splits live outside the books — until payroll day.
Small revenue streams pile into mis-categories and hide true club economics.
Two minutes. No document dump. Just the truth about how behind it feels.
We map billing software, trainers, and retail into a chart a studio can run weekly.
Backlog cleared. Accounts reconciled. A before/after report you — and your CPA — can act on.
Studio cleanup: memberships, trainers, retail — one clean story.
Every account reconciled and every anomaly documented before we change a thing.
The backlog cleared with fitness studio / gym-correct categories — not a generic chart of accounts.
A before/after summary and a simple monthly rhythm so it stays clean after we leave.
If our assessment can’t show you exactly what’s wrong and what it costs to fix, the assessment costs you nothing — no obligation either way.
“Finally handed my CPA a clean QuickBooks file instead of a shoebox.”
“MRR is a real number now, not a guess.”
