For nearly 20 years, Leslie worked inside Fortune 500 companies across research and development, manufacturing, operations, and commercialization, using data and analysis to solve complex problems, improve performance, and support growth.
Today, she is the CEO and Chief Profitability Strategist of Leslie Taylor & Associates Business Solutions, a boutique financial operations and CFO advisory firm. Leslie and her team help business owners build a stronger financial foundation through bookkeeping, reporting, and better financial processes, then use that information to make smarter decisions around cash flow, pricing, profitability, operations, and growth.
Known for making financial concepts practical and approachable, Leslie helps business owners understand the stories their numbers are telling and figure out what to do next.
Clients come to us because they want greater visibility into the financial health and performance of their business. They may be growing, but struggling to understand profitability, cash flow, pricing, operational efficiency, or the factors impacting their results.
LTA provides customized support that spans from CFO services and financial advisory to the bookkeeping and reporting that serve as the foundation for informed decision-making. By combining financial insight with operational perspective, we help business owners identify opportunities, solve problems, and make more confident decisions around growth, operations, cash flow, and profitability.
Unlike firms that focus primarily on bookkeeping or tax compliance, our work is centered on helping business owners use their financial data as a tool for decision-making. The result is greater clarity, stronger financial visibility, and a roadmap for building a more profitable and sustainable business.
