About

Spreadsheets built by people who actually close the books

Bookkeeping Sheets publishes free Excel and Google Sheets templates and plain-English guides for small business owners, freelancers and the people who keep the books for them.

Our templates come from real day-to-day finance work: tracking balances between related companies, monitoring construction project costs against budget, and producing daily revenue and cash reports for a hotel. These are the kinds of jobs where a well-built spreadsheet saves hours every week, and where a bad one causes expensive mistakes.

What you’ll find here

  • Free templates for bookkeeping, cash flow, receivables, payables, budgeting and reconciliation. No sign-up required.
  • Step-by-step guides that explain the formulas, so you understand your numbers instead of just copying them.
  • Industry templates for areas most template sites ignore, such as multi-entity businesses, construction contractors and small hotels.

Our principles

  1. Useful first. Every page should solve a real problem.
  2. Transparent formulas. No locked cells or hidden macros. You can see and change everything.
  3. Honest about limits. A spreadsheet is not a replacement for a good accountant, and we’ll tell you when it’s time to upgrade to accounting software or get professional help.
