What FinThinkers does

Clear numbers, every week,
without the accountant silence.

Most owners get their books once a year and guesswork the other 364 days. FinThinkers reads your numbers, tells you the story they’re telling, and gives you one clear action. Simple language. From the team that builds DeFogger, with a real person you can talk to.

The gap nobody fills

Too busy to ignore your numbers.
Too lean for a CFO.

Bookkeeping alone
Cheap & silent

Records the past. Tells you nothing about what to do next. Goes quiet after filing season.

Where you sit
FinThinkers

A clarity layer, from the team that builds DeFogger. Someone who reads your numbers weekly and tells you, in plain words, what they mean and what to do.

Real guidance, but priced for $5M+ companies. Out of reach for an owner running the whole thing themselves.

The Clarity Audit

One deep read of where your business truly stands. Real profit after every cost, your actual cash position, your margins, your biggest risk, and your biggest opportunity. You get a jargon-free report and a walkthrough call, not a spreadsheet you’ll never open.

For example, if you run a Shopify or e-commerce store, that means your true margin after COGS, fees and payouts, plus which products and customers actually make you money. Run a different kind of business? The same clarity applies. We’ll read whatever numbers you have.

£250 one-time

Fair pricing for your region. Not currency-converted.

  • Deep read of profit, cash and margins
  • Your biggest risk and biggest opportunity, named
  • Plain language report, no jargon
  • Walkthrough call to talk it through

The audit pays for itself. Join any monthly plan after your audit and the full fee is credited to your first month. You only carry the cost if you just want the one-time read of where you stand.

Our promise. The audit delivers a complete written read of your numbers, your true profit, real margin, cash position and 90-day direction, your biggest risk and biggest opportunity, plus a walkthrough call. If we don’t deliver that, you don’t pay.

The three ways we work together

Built around what you actually need.

1
The foundation

Clean Bookkeeping

Accurate, current books so every number after this one is trustworthy. For owners who are behind, doing it themselves and unsure, or who just want it off their plate. Each month you get a short plain-English summary of how the month actually went.

The weekly habit

Weekly Clarity Signal

One short message a week that keeps you on top of your money, with zero finance knowledge needed. Where your cash stands, what needs your attention this week, and what to do about it’s usually one thing, sometimes more. It’s the thing that means you’re never surprised by your own bank balance again. It comes built into our Clarity and Partner plans.

Financial Advisory

For ambitious owners ready to improve profit and make bigger calls with real numbers behind them, not just record the past. A monthly deep-dive on profit, margins, pricing and cash forecast, plus a finance brain on call between sessions. CFO-level thinking, built for where your business is now, so you can make the decisions that get it to the next stage.

The sounding board, in practice: a supplier wants 50% upfront for a bigger order. Can you afford it without choking your cash? Message before you decide and you’ll get a clear, reasoned answer, not a guess.

Inside Financial Advisory

The depth behind the decisions.

This is the actual work, not a mock-up. A clear read of where the money is really going, what’s working, what’s leaking, and exactly what to do about it, written for an owner, not an accountant. It’s the same depth behind the way we think about your numbers. The Advisory tier delivers this kind of thinking every month.

In plain terms

What is FinThinkers?

FinThinkers gives small business financial clarity: plain-English help understanding your cash, profit, and margins, without waiting for an accountant once a year. It’s built for small and micro business owners who want to know where their money stands and what to do next.

Instead of leaving you to figure out the numbers alone, you get a real person reading them each week and telling you the one thing that matters, plus clean bookkeeping and CFO-level advisory when you need it. Prefer to watch your cash yourself? DeFogger, our software, lets you do that too. The result is simple: small business financial clarity you can act on, at a price built for an owner, not a finance department.

Questions, answered

Frequently asked questions

Do you replace my accountant?
No, and we work happily alongside one. FinThinkers handles bookkeeping, clarity and business financial guidance. Formal tax filing stays with a registered accountant or tax agent. Many owners keep their accountant for year-end and use us for the day-to-day clarity they were missing the rest of the year.
How much does it cost?
Service plans start from £199/$279 a month for Clarity (bookkeeping plus a weekly clarity signal) and from £499/$699 for Partner (everything plus advisory). A one-time Clarity Audit is £250/$300, credited back if you join a plan. Your exact number is set together on a free call once we’ve seen your business.
What is the Weekly Clarity Signal?
One short message a week, by WhatsApp or email, that tells you where your cash stands, one risk to watch, and one action to take. A real person reads your numbers and sends it, so you stay on top of your money.
Do I need to be a Shopify or e-commerce business?
No. Shopify and e-commerce owners are a great fit because profit is easily hidden by fees and COGS, but the same clarity applies to any small or micro business. We’ll read whatever numbers you have.
What is DeFogger?
DeFogger is our software for businesses that buy and sell every day. Sales, stock, cash and customer accounts in one place. At the end of every day, you know what you made, what you hold, and who owes you. The demo is open to everyone: no sign-up, nothing to install.
How do we get started?
Start with a free 20-minute clarity call. We’ll look at one real problem in your business and you’ll leave with something useful either way. If it’s a fit, the next step is the Clarity Audit, then a plan that suits you. No pressure, no prep needed.
A clear note on what we do. FinThinkers provides bookkeeping, clarity, and business financial guidance, covering profit, pricing, cash, margins and decisions. We are not a regulated accountant or tax agent. We do not file tax returns and do not give regulated financial or investment advice. We prepare and clarify your numbers; formal filings go to a registered accountant, and we’re happy to work alongside yours.

See your numbers clearly.

Start with a free 20-minute call. We’ll look at one real problem in your business and you’ll walk away with something useful, whether or not we ever work together.
