Sunday night dread ends with this spreadsheet.
A free 12-month cash flow tracker built for Alberta trades contractors. See what's in the bank three months before it becomes a problem.
Free Excel download. No spreadsheet skills required.
Profitable on paper. Broke in the bank account.
You know the feeling. It's Sunday night and you're doing payroll math in your head. Will that big supply order clear before the client's check lands? You made money on the last three jobs, so why does it feel this tight?
That's not a profit problem. It's a cash flow problem, and it's the single most common reason a busy, profitable trades business still runs out of room to breathe.
What's inside the tracker
One Excel file. Enter your numbers in the blue cells, and your cash position builds itself, month by month.
A full 12-month inflow and outflow tracker
Customer payments, materials, payroll, subs, equipment, insurance, loans, and taxes, all laid out month by month.
Your running cash balance, calculated automatically
Each month's ending balance rolls into the next, so you always see where you stand, not just this month but the whole year.
A chart that shows the dip before it hits
Spot a tight month three months out, while you still have time to move a payment or chase an invoice.
Built-in categories for how trades businesses actually spend
No generic budget template. Categories built around materials, subs, equipment, and the fixed costs that hit every month.
"I spend my day job deciding how contractors get paid, and when, inside a large oilfield services company. Bricked Bookkeeping brings that same insider view to your cash flow."— Sarah, Founder of Bricked Bookkeeping & Accounts Payable Manager
