You're not bad at finances.
You were just never taught.

ARC of Impact™ Academy is a 15-lesson financial literacy program for founders who are brilliant at what they do — and ready to become just as powerful at understanding, structuring, and leading their business financially.

A·R·CThe Academy
If any of this sounds familiar

You're running a business without a financial language.

Most founders weren't taught this in school. There's no shame in that — but there is a cost. ARC of Impact™ Academy gives you the language, the systems, and the command you should have been handed years ago.

  • You avoid your bank balance because the numbers feel heavy
  • Your books are 'mostly' done — but you can't read them
  • You don't know your monthly burn or runway with confidence
  • Tax season feels like a panic, not a process
  • You're growing revenue but not building wealth
  • You want to make CEO-level decisions, not operator ones
The Framework

A founder-first financial transformation model.

Three phases. Fifteen lessons. Real tools. A repeatable system built to help founders lead with clarity instead of confusion.

A

Awareness

Financial clarity and removing avoidance. Five lessons that move you from blind spots to honest visibility — without judgment.

R

Reconstruction

Systems, structure, and compliance. Five lessons that rebuild your operating model on a foundation that holds weight.

C

Command

Strategy, decision-making, and scaling. Five lessons that hand you the controls so you can lead with conviction.

What's Inside

15 core lessons across 3 phases.

Every lesson includes a workbook prompt, a downloadable tool or template, and a reflection — so the work moves from screen to spreadsheet to your real business.

    Your Compliance Calendar

    Federal, state, and local. Nothing surprising you in Q4 again.

  • 05

    The five numbers you check weekly, not annually.

    Reading Your Financial Reports

Frequently Asked

The questions founders ask first.

Do I need to be 'good with numbers' to take ARC?

No. ARC was built for founders who avoid finances, not for accountants. Phase A is specifically designed to remove that avoidance and meet you where you are.

How long does ARC take?

Self-paced students typically move through the 15 lessons in 8–12 weeks. Cohort students follow a structured 12-week schedule. VIP is custom-paced.

Will this replace working with an accountant or CFO?

No — and it shouldn't. ARC teaches you the language so you can lead the engagement. Many ARC students go on to work with Franco Blueprint as fractional clients, but that's not a requirement.

What tools or software do I need?

A spreadsheet program and your accounting software (QuickBooks, Xero, or similar — even a simple ledger). Every template we provide is designed to work with what you already have.

What if I'm just starting out?

ARC is especially powerful early — before bad habits set in. Phase A and Phase R will save you years of cleanup. We just ask that you have a real business, not just an idea.
