Margin Theory
About

What Margin Theory means.

Margin Theory is the practice of thinking further than you're comfortable with. In business, in life, in everything.

The people operating at the highest level aren't working with better information than you. They just look at what's already in front of them differently.

Dr. Wayne Dyer said it best: "When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change." That's the entire foundation of Margin Theory.

The answers are already there. In your business, in your life, in your decisions. The problem is never the information. The problem is how you're looking at it. Change the lens and everything changes with it.

The data is everywhere. You just haven't connected it yet.

The newsletter and podcast are where I think out loud about business and life. The CFO practice is where I apply that same thinking directly to $500K to $20M businesses and prove it works with real numbers.

Who is Jake Erickson?

I run a fractional CFO practice for owner-operator businesses doing $500K to $20M. I go 5 to 10 drivers deep into the numbers most people never look at. That's where the six-figure opportunities live.

But I don't just think about business. I think about how people make decisions, why most people stop looking too early, what it actually takes to build something and still be a person at the end of it. Business, faith, fitness, family. Margin Theory is where I do that work in public and share everything I find along the way.
