Jay Dotson believes good business makes great lives possible, for owners, their teams, their customers and their families. But a business only gets there with financial leadership, and Jay learned how rare it is at 24. Two months into a job as a finance analyst, the CFO and the staff accountant both left, and suddenly he was all there was. Six fractional CFOs and four accounting solutions later, he understood that the market isn’t short on accountants. It’s short on financial leadership.
Jay then spent time at Sport Clips, a national franchisor with about 2,000 locations, and it showed him what mature finance looks like at scale. He later cofounded Prosper CFO, an Inc. 5000 company that has helped more than 100 businesses. Today he speaks to CEOs and owners on the question he has spent ten years answering: what is financial leadership, and how do you install it in a company?

But a business only gets there with financial leadership, and Jay learned how rare it is at 24. Two months into a job as a finance analyst, the CFO and the staff accountant both left, and suddenly he was all there was. The owner looked at him and said, “Let’s see what you’ve got.” Six fractional CFOs and four accounting solutions later, he understood that the market isn’t short on accountants.

Jay then spent time at Sport Clips, a national franchisor with about 2,000 locations, and it showed him what mature finance looks like at scale. He later cofounded Prosper CFO, an Inc. 5000 company that has helped more than 100 businesses.
Today he speaks to CEOs and owners on the question he has spent ten years answering: what is financial leadership, and how do you install it in a company? In his workshop, owners work through their numbers together and leave with three decisions made: who owns the financial health of the business, whether their numbers can be trusted, and how to run a monthly finance meeting that drives decisions.
