You Don’t Need To Do More. You Need To Lead Differently.

Most entrepreneurs don’t struggle because they lack effort. They struggle because decisions about money, compliance, structure, and growth get made under pressure – with fragmented advice and incomplete context.

CentsableCEO™ exists to provide the decision framework most owners were never given – so preventable mistakes don’t compound.

Explore the Framework

CentsableCEO™

From Chaos to Clarity

CentsableCEO™ is built for business owners and CEOs navigating growth, complexity, or change – plus serious founders who want to build correctly before committing deeper capital, time, or bandwidth.

This is a structured leadership environment that strengthens how owners:

Frame decisions before action is taken
Use professional advice more effectively
Delegate from clarity instead of urgency
Operate with standards – not improvisation

How Decisions Are Framed

Each Framework Session applies a disciplined decision lens rooted in our CentsableCEO™ Framework:

1. What rules govern the decision?
2. What assumptions, constraints, or tradeoffs are shaping it?
3. What must be true before responsible action?

You don’t leave with tactics, templates, or “quick wins.”

You leave with clearer judgment, stronger framing, and leadership control.

This is leadership calibration.

The CentsableCEO™ Framework

CentsableCEO™ is a six-pillar decision framework you cycle through year-round – because business decisions don’t stop.

PILLAR 1

Personal Finance & ENTREPRENEURSHIP Readiness

Unexamined personal financial pressure shapes how owners frame business decisions – distorting risk tolerance, pricing, and growth.

PILLAR 2

Tax Compliance & Resolution

Misunderstood tax obligations and resolution options frame decisions through fear – leading to reactive and costly outcomes.

PILLAR 3

Impact & Profit Clarity

Misalignment between impact and profit drives growth decisions that feel meaningful but cannot sustain the business or owner.

PILLAR 4

Business Financial Management

Limited financial understanding shapes decisions that feel reasonable short-term but undermine cash flow and growth capacity.

PILLAR 5

Business Infrastructure

Weak processes and operating standards create chaos, delegation failure, and bottlenecks – compounding risk as the business grows.

PILLAR 6

Scale & Exit Readiness

Unexamined assumptions about growth and succession limit intentional expansion and future exit options.

Learning more effective decision-making is cheaper than missing opportunities or fixing avoidable mistakes. CentsableCEO™ exists so experience doesn’t have to be your most expensive teacher.

Meet the Founder & Facilitator

Anisha Bailey, EA, MSEL

Anisha Bailey is a federally licensed Enrolled Agent and entrepreneur with nearly two decades of experience helping business owners navigate tax pressure, financial strain, and the operational decisions that determine stability.

Over time, one pattern became undeniable: business failure is rarely caused by lack of effort – it’s caused by misframed decisions under pressure, made without a shared standard for evaluating tradeoffs, risk, and responsibility.

CentsableCEO™ was created to solve that upstream problem: a live decision forum built to strengthen how business owners frame decisions, lead with discipline, and collaborate with their team and advisors – especially when the stakes are high.

Clarity is a competitive advantage

The CentsableCEO™ Model

A disciplined leadership experience for business owners who value clarity and control – because a CEO can delegate tasks, but responsibility cannot be delegated.
CentsableCEO™ is standards-based – not networking, motivation, or hype.

Frequently Asked Questions

CentsableCEO™ is designed for business owners who value disciplined thinking and long-term clarity. If you’re looking for tactics, motivation, or passive content, this won’t be a fit.

CentsableCEO™ is a standards-based leadership program for business owners and CEOs who want stronger judgment before execution. It strengthens how you frame decisions about money, structure, compliance, and growth – before execution creates avoidable consequences.

It is not a course and not one-on-one consulting. It’s a structured forum and onboarding model designed to build decision discipline you can apply repeatedly as your business evolves.

CentsableCEO™ is for business owners and CEOs who carry real ownership responsibility – or are preparing to.

This includes:

owners navigating growth, complexity, or change
founders building intentionally before scaling further
CEOs who want clearer judgment, stronger standards, and better internal leadership control

Readiness matters more than revenue. If you’re willing to slow down, verify what’s true, and lead with discipline, you’re in the right place.

No.

CentsableCEO™ is a live decision forum and onboarding model. It does not include one-on-one coaching, done-for-you implementation, or private consulting unless separately contracted.

The value is decision clarity, standards, and repeatable judgment – not tactics, gimmicks, or execution support.

CentsableCEO™ is not individualized professional advice. You may bring real context into discussion, but the purpose is to strengthen your decision-making – not deliver customized strategy or implementation.

If you need a formal, evidence-based evaluation of your business against the CentsableCEO™ standard, the optional Certification Path exists for that purpose.

No. Framework Sessions and Office Hours are live only. No replays are provided.

Members receive written post-session framework briefs to anchor decision discipline between sessions. Briefs are not transcripts, not minutes, and not a recording.

Taxley may record internally for quality control, training, or compliance purposes, but recordings are not distributed.

Participant recording is strictly prohibited.

Each session applies a disciplined decision-framing process inside one of the six pillars. Discussion centers on:

what rules govern the issue
what assumptions, constraints, and tradeoffs are shaping the real decision
what responsible leadership requires before action

You leave with stronger judgment and clearer framing – so you can lead, delegate, and use professional advice effectively.

Your first three days provide a guided onboarding intensive designed to move you through the full six-pillar framework in a structured way, using your business context.

It establishes:

shared language and standards
how to use the framework within the context of your business
decision discipline before you enter the ongoing forum

This onboarding is required because CentsableCEO™ is a standards-based room. It protects the quality of discussion and the value of the membership.

No. Enrollment requires an active Founder/CEO seat.

Additional leadership seats can be added inside the member portal after the Founder/CEO enrolls. Leadership seats exist to support implementation and shared internal standards – not to replace owner judgment.

A CEO can delegate tasks. Responsibility cannot be delegated.

Orientation Intensive (required): Cohorts begin in April, August, and December. Each cohort includes a 3-day live onboarding intensive (9:00 AM – 3:00 PM ET). Exact dates are listed above and in the Program Guide.

Framework Sessions + Office Hours (ongoing membership): Membership includes access to 36 Framework Sessions and 36 Office Hours annually, typically held Jan–Mar, May–Jul, and Sept–Nov on 1st–4th Wednesdays:

No Framework Sessions or Office Hours are held during onboarding months (April, August, December). Schedule is confirmed in the Program Guide and inside the member portal.

Sessions are held live online. The current schedule is provided in the Program Guide and confirmed inside the member portal upon enrollment.

Membership terms begin in April, August, and December – you choose your start date. Your renewal date is anchored to that start date.

Membership time runs continuously from that date regardless of participation. Delaying participation does not pause or extend the term.

CentsableCEO™ builds disciplined decision-making – the kind that reduces preventable mistakes, improves delegation, and strengthens your ability to lead through money, structure, compliance, and growth with clarity.

No outcomes are guaranteed. Results depend on your decisions, implementation, market conditions, and constraints beyond Taxley’s control.

CentsableCEO™ Certified is an optional designation available to active members who pursue verification against the CentsableCEO™ standard.

Certification is evidence-based and includes evaluation and verification to confirm alignment with the framework – including compliance readiness. Certification is renewable every three years, and active membership is required to maintain the designation.
