Jane Green
Jane spent much of her career in corporate controllership, over twenty years closing books and building reporting systems for companies where a full finance department was simply assumed to exist. Month-end was a process, forecasts were standard, and nobody made a hiring decision without a model.
What struck her, working alongside suppliers and clients in the mid-market, was how little of that discipline reached the businesses she admired most — the twelve-person manufacturer, the three-location clinic, the agency about to hire its first senior leader. These owners were making consequential decisions on gut feel, not because they wanted to, but because nobody had ever given them the numbers in time.
She founded BeanBalance in 2025 with a narrow thesis: give owner-operated businesses the same rigour, delivered by one person who actually knows the business. The practice specializes in serving clients in the professional services, trades, retail and healthcare, with a deliberate focus on companies between $500K and $20M in revenue.
“Owners don't need more reports. They need one person who knows their numbers as well as they know their business.”

To give owner-operated businesses the financial rigour normally reserved for the boardroom.
We believe an owner should be able to answer three questions on any given morning: what did we earn, what do we owe, and what can we afford next. Everything we do exists to keep those answers current.
Accuracy first
A number we publish is a number we can defend to a lender, an auditor or the tax authority.
Plain language
Every report comes with commentary in words, not jargon. If you can't explain it, we haven't finished.
Discretion
Behind books, a hard quarter, a difficult partner conversation. We've seen it. We don't flinch and we don't repeat it.
Proactive counsel
We raise the issue when there's still time to act on it, not in the post-mortem.
Your books closed by the tenth business day, a named advisor who answers within one business day, and a fixed fee agreed before we begin. If we miss a close, that month's fee is on us.
Why owners choose BeanBalance.
Closed by the tenth
Your monthly package is in your inbox by the tenth business day. No chasing, no quarter-old numbers.
One named advisor
You work with the same person every month. No ticket queues, no re-explaining your business.
Fixed monthly fee
Scoped up front and quoted flat. You will never receive an invoice for asking us a question.
Audit-ready by default
Documentation, trails and support are maintained continuously — not assembled under pressure.
