Kiddy noticed
Things a bookkeeper would catch. Checked every night
Same $16 refund issued twice
Oct 28: two refunds to the same card, 3 minutes apart. Probably a double tap at the desk.
Ask Kiddy: "Show me the refunds from Oct 28"Party supplies up 34% vs September
Helium and balloon orders went up. 14 parties this month vs 12, but cost per party rose from $112 to $150.
Ask Kiddy: "Why did party supply costs go up?"Rent is 22% of revenue
Industry guidance says keep rent under 20–25% of revenue. You are inside the range. Staying open to 6 PM on weekends would bring it to about 21%.
Ask Kiddy: "What if we stay open until 6 on weekends?"Insurance renews Dec 15
Liability policy renews in 6 weeks. Signed digital waivers and incident notes can help when you ask for quotes.
Ask Kiddy: "Remind me about insurance on Dec 1"Daily close
