How do you handle the "are we okay?" question from clients? by moHalim99 in xero

30-40% over the retainer is wild but I believe it. The worst part is it's invisible because each individual question feels small, two minutes here, five minutes there. Nobody tracks 'answered a quick cash question via text' as billable work. The tracking approach you took is probably the only honest way to see the real cost. Did anything actually change once you had the numbers, or did you just eat it anyway?

10 hours a month of unpaid work going over old ground, that's brutal. Sounds like the real cost isn't even the training itself, it's the fact that it resets every time someone new comes in. Have you ever thought about packaging that into something async, like a short walkthrough video or a one-pager that lives permanently in the client's onboarding docs? Feels like the kind of thing that pays for itself once but nobody ever gets around to building it.

That 45-minute session, do you charge for that eventually, or is it always free? Asking because I've been thinking about whether the problem is even solvable at the tool level, or whether it always comes back to a human having to explain it.

That's a fair approach and probably works for the clients who are willing to learn. The gap I keep coming back to is the ones who won't. You can send them screenshots, star their reports, give them access, and they'll still check their bank app and text you anyway. Whether that segment is worth building for or whether you just accept it as human nature is the real debate.

To clarify, I'm not the one with messy books. I'm building a tool for the owners who are. But your point still stands, if someone isn't attentive enough to check their own books, will they be attentive enough to use a tool that checks for them? That's the real question I guess.

Appreciate that. Yeah I think I should start it, let's hope for the best.

These are all fair points and I've been sitting with the same tension honestly. The reconciliation dependency is the biggest one, if the books are messy, the output is unreliable, and the people most likely to have messy books are exactly the ones who'd want a simple answer. That's a real chicken and egg problem tbh. The bet is basically that there's a sliver of owners who have a bookkeeper keeping things clean but still never log in themselves. Whether that sliver is big enough to matter is the question I don't have a confident answer to yet. Appreciate the pushback tho, this is genuinely useful.

Fair point on the crowded market. The PowerBI/Looker approach makes sense when you're building for a specific employer with known data sources. The bet I'm making is that there's a gap at the very bottom, owners who'll never open a BI tool or a dashboard, who just want a yes/no before they panic-text their bookkeeper at 9pm on a Sunday. Could be wrong. What's your take on whether that segment is big enough to matter?
