Meet Jay Owen.

CEO of Business Builders, father of 5, author, podcast host, and keynote speaker on a mission to help business owners build companies — and families — that last.

Jay Owen

Jay Owen is the CEO of Business Builders, a digital agency that helps others grow their businesses.

Jay believes every business owner deserves to grow their business and have the freedom they wanted when they started it. After achieving this dream himself (Business Builders has grown for over 25 years in a row), he made it his mission to help other business owners do the same.

When Jay isn’t focused on his business mission, he can usually be found with his wife Claire and their five children. He also serves as Chief of Ministry Staff at The Church of Eleven22 in Jacksonville, Florida — helping the church operate with the same discipline and care he brings to his agency. He is the author of Building a Business That Lasts, host of the podcast by the same name, a StoryBrand Certified Guide and Facilitator, and a two-time Inc. 5000 CEO.
