Eclipseful began as a one-woman wellness practice that quickly grew into a multi-service operation with a small team. But as demand increased, the financial side became harder to manage. Tax deadlines, payroll updates, and scattered documents created constant stress. Monica, the founder, needed a solution that would bring calm, structure, and predictability to her financial operations.

Challenge

Monica was managing tax prep manually, often unsure whether deadlines were being met or forms were complete. Payroll required frequent adjustments and double-checking, and quarterly reviews were always rushed. Mistakes were becoming costly, and the administrative load was pulling her away from her clients.

Approach

Lysterra centralized all financial documents, automated payroll for her six-person team, and built a quarterly review system that flagged potential issues early. We also implemented a clear calendar and simplified reporting so Monica always knew what needed attention — and when.

Impact

Eclipseful saved over $12,000 annually by eliminating manual errors and streamlining workflows. Payroll processes now run smoothly, quarterly reviews consistently come back clean, and tax season — once the highest-stress time of year — is now predictable and manageable. Monica can finally focus on her clients without worrying about compliance.
