Zone 04 · Money + Control

Know what to charge, what to sell — and exactly where your money is.

Money + Control is the finance side of Alive24 Solo24: budgeting, pricing, live sales targets, expenses and receipts, inventory, profit per job or session, twelve-month forecasts and accountant-ready reports — one system, no spreadsheets, no bookkeeper.

Alive24 connects the life you want to the prices you charge, the sales you need and the money moving through the business.

  • 5 min to see the whole business
  • 0 spreadsheets to maintain
  • Live gap to your monthly goal
  • $6k+ a year in avoided admin cost

Be honest

Are you currently doing this?

Every line below is something you can stop doing today — not manage better, not outsource cheaper. Stop.

Solo business owner at a kitchen table late at night surrounded by a shoebox of receipts, printed spreadsheets and a calculator
A shoebox of receipts and three spreadsheets that never agree.
  • Setting your prices by copying whatever a competitor charges
  • Working out your revenue target by picking a number that sounds fair
  • Guessing whether this month covered its costs
  • Keeping receipts in a shoebox, a glovebox or a drawer
  • Rebuilding a year of expenses the week before the accountant
  • Maintaining three spreadsheets that never quite agree
  • Discounting without knowing if there was any margin left
  • Finding out on the 30th that the month did not work
  • Having no idea which package or client actually makes you money
  • Counting stock and materials in your head
  • Wondering how much cash you will have in three months
  • Paying yourself whatever happens to be left over

You can stop all of it now.

The real problem

Stop finding out too late.

Most solo owners discover the problem after the money has already gone: the month that did not cover costs, the package that lost money on delivery, the receipts reconstructed the week before the accountant. Your financial system tells you what happened. It should be telling you what to do this month.

  • Money is always backward-looking
  • Prices set without knowing the real cost of delivery
  • No idea how many sales this month actually needs
  • Receipts and expenses rebuilt from memory at tax time
  • Cash spread across accounts with no plan behind it

Imagine if you could…

Open one screen and know exactly what to charge, what to sell and where the money is.

Twelve parts of a finance and business-control department, each one built and connected. Here is every single one, on its own, so you can see exactly what you get.

You voice-note one thing…

Here's the receipt from this morning — log it against the job.

Dream life budgetThe life you want, costed backwards

One voice note — your numbers update themselves around it

Dream-Life Budget

Start with the life you want, not a number you guessed.

  • Your personal costs and the income the business must produce
  • The working days and time off you actually want
  • The business revenue target that pays for all of it

Business Budget

Know what the business really costs to run.

  • Every fixed and variable cost in one place
  • Budget versus actual, updated as money moves
  • The true break-even figure you must clear each month

Pricing

Prices built from delivery time, cost and the profit you want.

  • Real delivery hours and direct costs behind every package
  • The profit you want built into the price, not hoped for
  • New prices flow to your website, quotes and invoices

Sales Targets + Gap to Goal

See the gap in week two, not at month end.

  • Annual, monthly and per-package targets worked out for you
  • How many sales and how much pipeline that actually needs
  • A live gap to goal, with a nudge while you can still fix it

Expenses

Record it once, the moment it happens.

  • Spending categorised against the right budget line
  • Costs attached to the job, session or package they belong to
  • Nothing reconstructed from memory the week before tax

Receipts

Photograph it at the counter and forget about it.

  • Snap or upload a receipt and it files itself
  • Petty cash and card spend recorded, including cash
  • No shoebox, no glovebox, no receipt app subscription

Cash + Payments

Always know what has landed and what is still owed.

  • Payments, deposits and refunds recorded as they happen
  • Overdue invoices flagged and chased without you asking
  • A live view of cash instead of a guess

Inventory + Materials

Stock and materials counted as you use them.

  • Products, materials and consumables tracked in one list
  • Usage attached to the work so nothing is absorbed silently
  • Low-stock alerts before you run out on a client

Profit Per Job

Know which work makes money and which quietly costs you.

  • Revenue, time and cost compared on every job or session
  • The real margin on each package, not an average
  • Clear evidence of what to sell more of and what to drop

Projections + Forecasting

See the next twelve months before you live them.

  • Forecasts built from live pipeline, prices and capacity
  • Quiet months visible far enough ahead to fill them
  • What-if scenarios: raise a price, add a day, drop a package

Reporting + Accountant Export

Clean numbers your accountant can simply take.

  • Income, expenses, tax categories and statements ready to go
  • Exports and accountant access without a handover scramble
  • Records kept properly all year, not rebuilt in a panic

Business Dashboard

Five minutes to know exactly where you stand.

  • Revenue, profit, cash, pipeline and target on one screen
  • Written in plain English, not accounting language
  • The whole business, understood before your first coffee

Inside Money + Control

Watch it talk to itself.

Money + Control is not a folder of finance tools. The life you want sets the income target, the target sets your prices, your prices flow into quotes and invoices, spending and payments record themselves, and the dashboard tells you what to do this month — while you get on with the work.

  • The life you want → the income the business must produce
  • Income target → package prices and this month's sales target
  • Quote accepted → revenue, margin and forecast update themselves
  • Receipt photographed → categorised → profit on that work is real
  • Every number → one dashboard → what to do this month

See it for real

This is what it runs for a business like yours.

Your dream-life budget, your prices, your live target, expenses and receipts, stock, twelve-month projections, accountant-ready reports and one business dashboard — all inside your system, all in plain English.

The apps and people you will no longer need

The bookkeeper, the pricing consultant and the six spreadsheets.

This is not a cheaper accounting app. It is the end of paying people and tools to tell you — months later — what already happened.

People you will no longer need

  • Bookkeeper (day-to-day recording)$300–$900 / month
  • Pricing consultant$1,500–$6,000 once
  • Business consultant / coach$500–$2,500 / month
  • Administrator (data entry)$1,500–$3,500 / month
  • Financial modelling / analyst work$1,000–$4,000 once
  • Stocktake help$200–$800 each time

Apps and spreadsheets you can cancel

in year one — one up-front fee, then you own it outright

About $32.60 a week in year one. Then you own it.

You pay once, up front — not weekly and not monthly. Spread across the first year that single payment works out at about $32.60 a week, and you are not paying that every week: it is simply how cheap owning the whole thing is. From day one you also cancel $105–$470 a month of budgeting, receipt, expense, inventory and reporting subscriptions, so most owners are ahead within the first few months. The only ongoing cost is AI prompts, from $25–$100 a month pay-as-you-go depending on how much customising you do.

Averaged small-business market rates. One package priced too low for a year usually costs more than the entire system.

In practice — wellness

Zero tech experience. A $150,000 contract in week one.

After 30 years as a massage therapist, Marnie wanted out of the spa she'd been trying to sell for two years and into a luxury consultancy for hotels and spas. At 55, with zero tech experience and a dread of hiring another web designer, the idea stayed stuck. She built her site in Alive24 in one day — by voice, no code — and signed a $150,000 international contract in her first week. Alive24 even helped draft the agreement.

Connected, not bundled

What this actually means for your month.

Bundled means a spreadsheet and three apps on one invoice. Connected means the numbers keep themselves up to date and tell you something useful before it is too late to act.

The first five minutes of Monday

One screen: money in, money out, what is owed, pipeline, and the gap to this month's target. You know where you stand before your first coffee, without opening a spreadsheet.

The moment you spend

You photograph the receipt at the counter. It is categorised, attached to the right budget and, where it belongs, to the job or session — so the margin on that work stays honest.

The moment you quote

The price already carries your delivery time, your costs and the profit you decided on. When it is accepted, revenue, margin, forecast and target all move on their own.

The end of the year

Nothing to reconstruct. Income, expenses, categories, statements and exports are already clean, so your accountant gets a tidy file instead of a shoebox and an apology.

Time and money

A finance department that would traditionally cost more than the business keeps.

Bookkeeping support at $300–$900 a month, a pricing consultant at $1,500–$6,000, and dashboard tooling on top. Inside Solo24 it is part of the one-time system.

A traditional bookkeeping and finance team working on ledgers, reports and pricing charts — the department you no longer need to hire

Bookkeeper, pricing consultant, analyst and data-entry admin.You no longer need any of them.

Replaced

Most solo owners cannot justify a bookkeeper and a pricing consultant, so the numbers get done late, by hand, in a spreadsheet — and the decisions get made blind.

Alive24 Solo24 replaces the whole layer: the budget, the prices, the targets, the expenses and receipts, the stock, the profit per job or session, the forecast and the reports — in the same system that wins and delivers the work.

  • No bookkeeper for day-to-day recording
  • No pricing consultant to re-hire every year
  • No budgeting, receipt or reporting subscriptions
  • No spreadsheets to maintain, ever again

Questions

Money + Control — every question, answered.

If you are weighing this up against a bookkeeper, a pricing consultant, a receipt app, an inventory app and a pile of spreadsheets, this is the honest detail.

What exactly is inside Money + Control?

A dream-life budget, a business budget, package pricing, annual and monthly sales targets with a live gap to goal, expenses, receipt capture, cash and payment records, inventory and materials, profit per job or session, twelve-month projections, reporting with accountant export, and one business dashboard. All of it built, connected and included.

Does this replace my accountant?

No, and it does not pretend to. It replaces the day-to-day recording, categorising, chasing and spreadsheet maintenance, and hands your accountant clean records and exports. Most owners find their accountant bill goes down because there is nothing left to untangle.

Do I need to understand accounting to use it?

Not at all. You get answers in plain English: what the business must earn this month, what to charge, who owes you, what that job or session really made, and whether you are on track. No debits, credits or jargon.

What is the dream-life budget, in plain English?

You tell it the life you want — what you need personally, the days you want to work, the time off you want to take — and it works out the revenue the business has to produce, then checks that against your prices and your capacity. Most owners find out in ten minutes why the last two years felt so hard.

Will it tell me to raise my prices?

It shows you what your current prices actually produce against your goal, your delivery time and your capacity. If the numbers do not reach your target, you will see it immediately. Most owners discover they were underpricing by more than they expected.

How does the gap to goal work?

Your target is broken down to the month, the package and the number of sales required. It reads your live pipeline and revenue, then shows the gap while there is still time to close it — usually in week two, not on the 30th.

What about receipts and cash spending?

Photograph or upload the receipt when it happens and it is categorised against the right budget line, including petty cash and card spend. No shoebox, no glovebox, no separate receipt app.

Can it connect to my bank or payment provider?

Payment-provider connection is supported, and bank import or connection where it is available, with manual records and reconciliation support where it is not. Either way the records stay complete.

Will I finally know what each job or session actually makes?

Yes. Revenue, delivery time and direct costs sit on the same record, so you see the real margin on each job, session, program or package — and can stop selling the ones that quietly cost you money.

How is this different to a budget spreadsheet?

A spreadsheet is a snapshot you maintain by hand. This is connected to live quotes, invoices, payments, expenses, packages, pipeline and capacity, so the forecast updates itself as the business moves — and it never has a broken formula in row 84.

Do I have to enter everything twice?

Never. Prices, quotes, invoices, payments, expenses and job costs all read the same records as the rest of the system, so a sale in Sell and a session in Deliver already show up in your numbers.

What does the inventory side handle?

Products, stock, materials and consumables — what you hold, what has been used on client work, what it cost and what is running low, with alerts before you run out in front of a client.

Can I see what happens if I change something?

Yes. Raise a price, add a working day, drop a package or take an extra week off, and the projection shows what it does to revenue, profit and cash across the next twelve months before you commit.

Is it useful if I sell sessions rather than jobs?

Completely. Sessions, treatments, programs, retainers and product sales are all priced, costed and reported the same way, including packages of multiple sessions and their real margin.

How do I change how the numbers work once it is live?

Say it. "Put my prices up 8% from July." "Add a materials cost to this package." "Show me profit by service on the dashboard." It happens immediately, everywhere it applies.

So I can cancel my budgeting, receipt, expense, inventory and reporting apps?

Yes. That whole stack — usually $105–$470 a month — is replaced by one system you own outright for a single up-front payment — about $32.60 a week across your first year, with no weekly or monthly fee ever.

Is my financial data mine, and is it safe?

Yes. Your budgets, prices, expenses, receipts and reports belong to you, are held in your own system and can be exported at any time.

Is Money + Control enough on its own?

It is already wired into Attract, Sell and Deliver, so leads, quotes, bookings, invoices, payments and completed work feed your numbers automatically. That is what makes the dashboard true rather than a data-entry job.

How long does it take to set up?

It is already built. You answer a short set of questions about your costs, your prices and the life you want, and the budgets, targets and dashboard are live the same day — inside the 24 hours it takes to stand the whole business up.

What if I want help setting it up anyway?

Use the video guides, the knowledge base or the in-app AI helper, which knows your system. If you would rather someone else did the customising, an Alive24 builder can take it on as a paid extra.
