Controller-level books at small-business prices.

I'm Berdine Ramos, founder of Brick & Ledger Co.

I've spent my career as a Controller and finance manager for companies in construction, environmental services, manufacturing, healthcare, pharmaceuticals and nonprofits. I've closed the books every month, built the reports owners rely on, and answered to auditors, lenders and boards.

Along the way I saw how many small trades and service businesses run without clean numbers. They're great at the work and behind on the books, and it costs them at tax time, at the bank and in decisions made on gut feel.

I started Brick & Ledger Co. to fix that. You get the same discipline I brought to larger companies, at a flat monthly price that makes sense for a crew of five.

How I work

• Accurate first. Every account reconciled to the bank, every month.
• Fast. Books closed on a set schedule, and questions answered within one business day.
• Plain English. Reports you can read in five minutes, with a note on what changed.
• Straight pricing. Flat fees quoted up front. No hourly billing.
