Spring Clean Your Expenses: Clear the Clutter & Find Hidden Profit

Spring is here—and while you’re bravely tackling that garage, finally parting ways with those “someday they’ll fit again” jeans, or wondering how your junk drawer became a black hole of mystery items… let’s talk about a different kind of mess: your business expenses.

Because let’s be real—there are probably some cobweb-covered charges lurking in your bank statements, quietly draining your profits while you blissfully ignore them.

Haven’t checked what you’re actually spending lately? Now’s the time. An expense audit can uncover sneaky leaks, cut out what’s no longer serving you, and free up money and time to fuel actual growth (instead of funding forgotten subscriptions).

And just a reminder: while we’re not financial experts, we ARE operations experts and can spot shiny object syndrome software purchases from a mile away. Plus, we have a knack for finding pennies & $20 bills in the couch.

What Is an Expense Audit—And Why Should You Care?

Think of an expense audit like spring cleaning, but for your finances—no heavy lifting required. It’s a simple, no-stress review of where your money is going, how you’re spending it, and which expenses have overstayed their welcome.

And no, this isn’t about becoming some penny-pinching spreadsheet person. It’s about spending smarter, not smaller, so your money actually supports your business goals instead of just… vanishing into the abyss.

If you run a mental health practice, you might be paying for tools, services, or subscriptions that once made perfect sense—but now? They’re just hanging around like that old gym membership you swear you’ll use “next month.”

Time to play financial detective—because some of those expenses are sneakier than you think.

Common “Dust Collectors” We Find in Audits

Here are some of the most common financial dust bunnies we uncover—and help clean up:

🧹 Outdated subscriptions nobody uses (RIP to that meditation app you meant to implement for your team).

🧹 Monthly software fees that could be paid yearly for instant savings (because yes, companies reward commitment).

🧹 Overlapping tools—spoiler alert: you probably don’t need two project management platforms.

🧹 Automated payments that renew in the background while you’re busy actually running your practice.

🧹 Software pricing tiers with features your team doesn’t even touch (do you really need the enterprise plan?).

🧹 Marketing expenses that no longer align with your goals (Why are we using [insert popular therapist search engine here] when we haven’t gotten a single referral in six months?).

🧹 Contractors or roles that aren’t delivering a clear return (Are we sure we need this… or did we just forget to check?).

These expenses add up—and fast. If you’ve been feeling like your budget is tight, your team is stretched, or you’re working more but keeping less, this is where to start looking.
