Stop Emailing P&Ls. Give Every Client a Branded Portal That Justifies Higher Retainers.

Linkly Reports is a client portal solution designed for bookkeepers and small bookkeeping firms to deliver monthly financial reports to their clients. It aims to streamline the reporting process, making it faster, more secure, and more professional than traditional methods like emailing PDFs or sharing individual Google Drive links.

Linkly Reports integrates with existing workflows by allowing bookkeepers to continue uploading their monthly PDF reports to Google Drive as usual. Instead of manually sharing individual links, bookkeepers then paste the Google Drive URLs into each client's private portal within the Linkly-Reports system. Clients receive a single, branded, and passcode-protected link to their personal portal, where all their reports are securely accessible.

For bookkeepers, Linkly Reports offers several significant advantages: it saves hours of administrative time by automating report delivery, reduces errors associated with manual sharing, provides a professional and branded presentation for reports, and enhances client trust through secure, passcode-protected portals. It also offers optional analytics dashboards for client insights and helps bookkeepers stand out as modern and organized professionals.

Clients appreciate Linkly Reports for its simplicity, speed, and security. They get one consistent, secure link to access all their financial reports, eliminating the need to search through emails or folders. Reports are always up-to-date, providing instant access to the latest information. The professional and intuitive interface enhances trust, and the passcode protection ensures their financial data is safe. Additionally, optional analytics dashboards help them better understand their financial trends and make informed decisions.

For real estate investors, Linkly Reports (in conjunction with Data Studio dashboards) helps visualize three key metrics:

1. Net Cash Flow Over Time: Shows what's actually going into pockets each month after expenses, often presented as a bar chart with profit/loss indicators.
2. Expense Breakdown by Category: Tracks where money is being spent (e.g., maintenance, taxes, utilities) to help identify cost spikes, typically shown as a donut or stacked bar chart.
3. Monthly Rental Income Trend: Visualizes income trends to forecast performance, track occupancy, and verify timely rent collection, usually displayed as a line graph.

Yes! The portal and reporting system works for any bookkeeping client. We started with real estate investors, but bookkeepers serving construction companies and service businesses use it too.

Linkly Reports prioritizes client security and privacy by providing passcode-protected client portals. Each client receives a unique passcode to access their private portal, ensuring that only authorized individuals can view their financial reports. There are no general logins or complex password management for clients, simplifying access while maintaining strong security.

Linkly Reports differentiates itself by offering a dedicated client portal that centralizes all reports under a single, secure, and branded link. Unlike emailing PDFs or sharing individual Google Drive links, it eliminates manual back-and-forth, ensures reports are always up-to-date in one place, provides a consistent professional presentation, and offers optional analytics dashboards for deeper insights without replacing a bookkeeper's existing Google Drive setup.

While QBO and Xero are both effective tools for internal financial management and generating various reports like profit and loss statements or balance sheets, neither offers a dedicated, centralized client-facing portal for streamlined, branded, and secure delivery of these reports to multiple clients. Linkly Reports fills this gap by providing a unique service that allows bookkeepers to deliver all client reports—whether sourced from QBO or Xero—via a single, passcode-protected link, ensuring professional presentation and always-up-to-date access. It also offers optional analytics dashboards that visualize key financial metrics for deeper client insights, such as net cash flow or expense breakdowns for real estate investors, thereby enhancing the perceived value and professionalism of the bookkeeper's service beyond basic report generation.
