About me

Hello, I’m Jay, one of the co-founders of Profit Decoder. I enjoy helping businesses like yours get a grip on their finances. Let’s face it, if you don’t understand your financial data you are flying in the dark. I have worked with hundreds of start-ups and small businesses and have a talent for demystifying the numbers so you can easily make informed decisions to grow your businesses.

My approach throws out confusing explanations and brings together experience consulting with start-ups and small businesses, as well as companies with billions in sales. In addition, I have taught  entrepreneurship for over two decades around the world and had my work covered in The New York Times, Entrepreneur and dozens of other media outlets.

With Profit Decoder, I help you enter the numbers as you understand them, leaving behind the accounting speak and spreadsheet confusion. Together, we can get to answers with impact, so you can improve your business and your life.
