Question 1

How does revenue-based pricing work?

Accepted Answer

Core and Growth fees are a percentage of your revenue. For Core, choose monthly assessment at 4.5%, or a 12-month contract assessed annually at 4%. Annual contracts can’t be ended early. Core has a $5,000 monthly minimum on either option. Growth uses the same terms with no minimum, and we’ll share its rates when we talk.

Question 2

What isn’t included in Quickstart?

Accepted Answer

Invoicing and collections, bill pay, payroll processing, and advice beyond the weekly email. Those come with Core. No tier includes tax preparation: we hand clean books to your CPA.

Question 3

Do I need a CFO to choose Growth?

Accepted Answer

No. Ablaze can provide CFO advisory as part of Growth, or we’ll work alongside the CFO you already have.

Question 4

Can I change tiers later?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Quickstart books use the same chart of accounts as Core, so moving up doesn’t mean starting over. We’ll plan the timing with you.

Question 5

Do you prepare taxes?

Accepted Answer

No, we’re not a CPA firm. We keep books your CPA can file from, and in Growth we coordinate your tax filings with your CPA, based on your financials.
