The $1,600 Discovery

"Sometimes the smallest details make the biggest difference..."

Last month, I was working with a client who runs a successful consulting business. As part of my white glove service, I was going through his daily transactions - line by line, receipt by receipt.Something caught my eye on his American Express statement. Three identical charges from American Airlines. Same flight. Same amount. Same date.

I picked up the phone. "Hey Mark, quick question - did you buy three tickets for the same flight last Tuesday?"

There was a pause. "Three tickets? No, just one. I was traveling solo to the Denver conference."

Twenty minutes later, Mark called me back. He'd spoken with American Express, and sure enough - it was a processing error. They had charged him three times for a single $800 ticket.

That "boring" bookkeeping work just saved him $1,600.

Here's the thing: Mark is brilliant at what he does. But when you're focused on running your business, these details slip through the cracks. That's exactly why I reconcile every account, match every transaction, and question anything that doesn't look right.

Because your money matters. Every dollar of it.
