Finance for jiu-jitsu & martial arts gyms

The finance team your academy never had.

Matside Financial gives gym owners clean books, a clear monthly read on what's actually making money, and the kind of financial insight big firms reserve for million-dollar companies — priced for a gym's budget.

Sound familiar?

You run the gym on feel. The numbers stay a mystery.

Most academy owners are world-class on the mats and flying blind on the books. Matside fixes that — without adding one more thing to your plate.

?

Which programs actually make money — adults, kids, privates — and which quietly lose it every month?

?

Is the bank balance going up because you're profitable, or just because you haven't paid yourself?

Books that are months behind, a shoebox of receipts, and a CPA you only hear from at tax time?

What you get

The same packet every month — clean, clear, and built for you

One predictable deliverable each month, generated from your accounting data. The structure never changes — only your numbers and what they're telling you.

Clean books, monthly

Your books reconciled and closed on a reliable schedule — accurate, current, and ready whenever your CPA or a lender asks.

Your KPI dashboard

Revenue by program, margins, membership trends, and cash — the handful of numbers that actually drive your decisions, in one view.

A 3-minute walkthrough

A short screen-recorded video with each packet, walking you through what changed and what it means — no meeting to schedule.

Budget & forecast

A simple plan for the year so you know what to expect — and can see early when reality starts drifting from the plan.

Variance analysis

Plan versus actual, explained in plain English — what moved, by how much, and why it matters this month.

A standing channel

A "text me anything" line for quick financial questions between packets — so you're never left guessing until the next close.

Page one is always three headlines

Every packet opens the same way: the biggest win, the biggest risk, and the one action to take this month — each with the dollar impact spelled out. No jargon, no 40-page report to wade through.

"Kids program dipped below break-even → costing ~$600/mo → raise the kids rate $10 or add 4 members."

Built with a real academy

Designed on the mats, not in a boardroom.

Matside Financial was built and proven alongside a working jiu-jitsu academy — closing its books, building its dashboard, and untangling exactly the questions gym owners actually ask.

That means a service that already speaks your language: memberships, programs, privates, drop-ins, and the seasonal swings every academy lives through. No translating your business into accountant-speak.

"For the first time I can see which programs actually pay the bills — and what to do about the ones that don't."
