FAQ
Questions, answered
The things studio owners ask us most. Don’t see yours? Reach out — we’re friendly.
Do you really only work with paint-your-own-pottery studios?
It’s our specialty. We understand studio economics — walk-in vs. parties vs. to-go kits, seasonal swings, inventory, and the margins that actually matter. That focus means less explaining on your end and sharper advice on ours.
I’m brand new. Is it too early to talk to a CPA?
Nope — it’s the best time. Setting up your books and entity correctly from day one saves a painful (and expensive) cleanup later. Start with our free PAINT tier and grow from there.
What is the four-season tax framework?
Most accountants only think about your taxes once a year — in April, when it’s too late to change anything. We plan proactively across all four seasons so there are no surprises and you keep more of what you earn.
Do I have to switch off QuickBooks / my current system?
Usually not. We meet you where you are and tidy up what you already have. If a change would genuinely help, we’ll explain why before recommending it.
How do we get started?
Book a short studio review. We’ll look at where you are, where you want to go, and recommend the tier that fits. No pressure, no jargon.
