Your clients' books, done monthly. Under your name, never ours.

You didn't build a firm to spend partner hours categorizing transactions — but your clients keep asking for bookkeeping, and sending them elsewhere risks the whole relationship. So the work stays in-house, eats your staff's month, and still isn't what anyone charges real money for. We're the back office for that work: you send statements, we do the monthly books behind the scenes, and the finished file comes back to you — under your firm's name — for your review before your client sees a page of it.

Ren Studio is a bookkeeping production shop. Our retail work is monthly bookkeeping for online sellers and small service businesses — the fee-heavy, statement-tangling end of the trade. The same production line is available to firms wholesale: your client keeps dealing with you, your header goes on the page, and our name never appears anywhere your client can see it.

This is a common arrangement, not an experiment. In the AICPA and CPA.com 2025 National MAP Survey, 38% of firms that outsource send client bookkeeping to an outside provider. The reason is arithmetic, not fashion: bookkeeping has to be done monthly, on a deadline, at a price clients resist — and every hour your people spend on it is an hour not spent on the tax and advisory work only your firm can do.

Talk about a pilot client
Use the subject line PARTNER + your firm name. Tell us roughly how many bookkeeping clients you have and where the pain is. No pitch deck, no sales sequence — a short reply from a person, and if it fits, one pilot client to judge us on.

How the white-label arrangement works

1. You introduce the client — your way

Most firms tell the client their bookkeeping is handled by the firm's bookkeeping team. That's accurate: we're your production team. The client sends their statements to you (or to a collection address you control), and the statements reach us from you. We never contact the client — not to onboard, not to chase a missing statement, not ever. If something is missing, we tell you, and you decide how it's asked for.

2. We do the monthly production

Every transaction categorized and reconciled against the statements — bank, card, and marketplace payouts, with every marketplace fee broken out line by line instead of left as one mystery lump. Anything we can't identify goes on a short "what's this?" list to you, never a guess in the client's books. We work in the chart-of-accounts structure you specify, so the year-end file drops into your tax workflow the way you want it.

3. The file comes back to you, under your name

By the 10th of the month: a one-page profit-and-loss carrying your firm's header, the full itemized backup behind it, and a short flags note — duplicate charges, fees creeping up, anything odd. Every page is reviewed by Ren Studio's founder before it leaves us. You review it, you send it to your client under your name, and your client never learns our name. If you spot something you want handled differently, we adjust the convention and it holds every month after.

What your client sees

Sample page, placeholder firm and client — this is the format delivered to you each month, with your firm's header where the bracket sits and nothing of ours on it.

Catch-up work: clients who arrive months behind are quoted per client before we start — you'll see the number and approve it before any work happens, same as our retail cleanups. Your margin is yours: firms typically bill their clients above wholesale and keep the difference; what you charge is your decision and none of our business. Month to month — no long-term contract, no minimum number of clients, no setup fee.

The terms that protect your firm

  • We never contact your clients. Not for onboarding, not for missing statements, not for marketing. All communication runs through you.
  • We never market to your clients. No list, no follow-up, no "while we have you." If one of your clients somehow finds our retail site on their own, that's the open internet — but nothing from your engagement ever feeds it.
  • Your clients stay yours if you leave. End the arrangement any month and the client list, the files, and the relationship go with you. We keep nothing to compete with.
  • Statements only, no logins. We never take bank credentials, marketplace passwords, or access to anyone's accounts — yours or your clients'. There is nothing in our files that could move money.
  • A person checks every page. Ren Studio's founder reviews each client's P&L before it goes to your firm. If a page ever doesn't match the statements, we fix it free and that client's month is on us.

What we don't do — and won't pretend to

No tax preparation and no tax advice. We produce books; your firm makes every professional judgment, files every return, and gives every piece of advice. No audit, review, or compilation support — this is bookkeeping production, not a CPA's professional service, and nothing we deliver carries your firm's professional opinion until you've reviewed it and made it yours. No payroll. And no client contact, as above — if a workflow needs us in front of your client, we're the wrong shop for that workflow.

Firms also ask about the reverse arrangement: if you'd rather simply refer seller clients to us directly and skip the white label, our retail bookkeeping page is the client-facing version — same production line, our name on it, your clients stay yours for tax and advice either way.

Questions firms ask

What do my clients actually see?

Your firm's name, your firm's header, and a page your firm sent them. Our name appears on nothing the client receives — not the P&L, not the backup, not an email. The engagement is between you and us; the client relationship is entirely yours.

How do I know the work is right before my name goes on it?

Because you see it first, every time. Delivery is to your firm, by the 10th, with the itemized backup behind every number — nothing reaches a client until you've reviewed it and sent it yourself. Start with one pilot client and judge the file the way you'd judge a new hire's first month.

What do you need from us to start?

Four things: the pilot client's statements (bank, card, marketplace exports), the chart-of-accounts conventions you want followed, the header your P&L should carry, and any house rules — categories you name a certain way, things you always flag. One short setup call or email thread, then production starts the following month.

What if a client is a year behind?

Common, and fine. Catch-up is quoted per client in writing before work starts — you approve the number, we clear the backlog month by month, and the client rolls into the normal monthly rhythm once current.

Can we stop?

Any month, with a short email. There's no term contract to buy out and no hostage files: the work we've delivered is yours and your clients', and the clients remain your clients, full stop.

Start with one pilot client
