    Hello! I am a financial analyst specializing in LBO models, fractional CFO services, and real estate models. The bulk of my work over the last two years has been building LBO models for family offices, private equity firms, and individual investors seeking to purchase businesses. I have built dozens of 3-statement LBO models for investors to assess the best purchase price and financing structure when acquiring a business. I have also helped investors find debt products and submit their targets for SBA approval to help source capital and execute a deal . My core competencies include the following: 1) M&A Models- My primary specialty involves building LBO models for investors looking to purchase small and medium-sized businesses in the middle market. I am able to utilize information on the company's historical performance and market segment to determine a fair offer range and am able to calculate the risk-return profile given different financing structures. I've also performed 409A valuations for early-stage and mature businesses. 2) Real Estate Models- I began building real estate models in 2021 starting with a hotel construction project in Las Vegas. I've steadily mastered this skill working on projects for multifamily, single-family-residential, mixed-use, RV parks, and retail properties. 3) Pitch Material Creation: I have worked on numerous pitch decks for companies in a range of sectors. If you would like an investment teaser or pitch deck produced feel free to contact me to discuss further.

    I am a Professional EOS Implementer and Fractional Strategic CFO. I have more than 20 years of business advisory and investment banking experience. I help business owners build a better life and a more valuable business. All four of my grandparents were entrepreneurs, my father is an entrepreneur, and my mother is a schoolteacher. By about 10 years old I knew that “I wanted to buy and sell companies” when I grew up. Over the past 20 years I have worked with hundreds of companies in transactions worth billions of dollars. As an investment banker I was a right person, right seat problem. I GWC’d (got it, wanted it, and the capacity to fill) my seat, but I didn’t fit a traditional investment banks unstated core value – they want to sell your company today. I didn’t always want to do that, I wanted to help, and it was a problem. I founded RedShift Advisors in 2018 to serve the owners of businesses in the lower middle market with approximately 10-250 employees. I believe the owners and managers with companies of this size are underserved in many ways. I have developed a proven process to help owners build a better life and business. My proven process solves problems, reduces risk and increases value. I believe my service is the best investment available to most business owners. What is a better life and a more valuable business worth to you? With my service, there is no contract, and I guaranty that you receive value. If you do not, you do not pay me. I work exclusively for entrepreneurs and owners. I do not work for private equity groups, venture capital investors or public companies. I am an independent advisor - I am free of conflicts that come from working for or with another business.

    I enjoy helping people with excel-based work that makes life easier, facilitates well-informed decision making, or simply makes things look cleaner and more presentable. I recently worked as an Investment Banking Analyst at J.P. Morgan which consisted of 80-100hrs of work per week revolving around collecting/analyzing/modeling financial data in excel and building presentations to advise large public companies on M&A transactions and capital raising. I chose to leave for an exciting new opportunity, and since I'm no longer working 80+ hours per week, I have time and energy to work on the side. I have a diverse occupational background so I'm happy to help with any excel-based work you may need even if it isn't finance-related. I've used excel extensively across logistics, operations, recruiting, and HR as well. My "softer" experience includes having led teams ranging in size from 9 - 75 employees across HR, Recruiting, Operations, and Logistics in both the conventional Army and Army Special Operations. I have encountered and solved an extensively wide range of problems across multiple business functions in a wide variety of environments, so I'm happy to help you with any management consulting / problem-solving work as well.

    With a deep foundation in both monetary economics and financial markets, I’ve developed a keen understanding of how banking systems, liquidity management, and risk pricing shape global and domestic finance and investment landscapes. My expertise spans key areas such as direct and indirect finance, shadow banking, credit derivatives, and central banking, which I apply to my work in financial analysis and investment strategy. I put a focus on liquidity management, capital allocation, and intermediation in the banking system, to provide insights into market movements and investment opportunities. By integrating key financial concepts and understanding the relationship between liquidity constraints and price formation, I’m able to evaluate how global events, such as shifts in central bank policies or fluctuations in capital markets, impact asset prices and investment portfolios. This combination of academic rigor and practical application allows me to help clients and organizations navigate complex financial environments with informed decision-making and strategic foresight, particularly in areas such as portfolio management, asset allocation, and risk mitigation in both domestic and international markets.

    I'm a 2x founder and former high-finance guy with over a decade of experience building and investing in businesses, raising capital, and consulting with founders. Check out my website and offering here: eddymikes.com I've personally raised over $30 million of capital across multiple asset classes from angels and early stage startups to institutional asset managers and alternative investment funds, and I actively maintain a deep network of investors and buyers. I started my career with a decade of investment banking and private equity experience. I can be helpful in multiple contexts depending on what you need, from simple pitch deck reviews and feedback to full blown business idea validation, pitch deck creation, modeling and investor/buyer introductions. For new businesses, I can help isolate the key needle-movers investors expect to see when assessing your business and position your company in a way that's clear, compelling, and generates the RIGHT follow up questions. Reviewing and/or working on your pitch or working with you to validate your idea in the market makes sense here. For investor/buyer introductions and access to my network, I'm happy to work with you if your business meets the following criteria: - You have a fully working/deliverable product or service. - You have traction (i.e. people are consistently paying you for your thing). - You are a "traditional" business. This one is subjective, but I steer clear of deep tech, crypto, and highly specialized technology like renewable energy, etc. (traditional SaaS and tech-enabled services are okay) Specific skills include: - Company positioning and storytelling - Pitch deck creation - Investor/buyer outreach strategy - Investor/buyer introductions - Business validation exercises - Financial modeling and valuation - Dataroom preparation - Deal structuring and contract advice - Fundraising and sale process management I'm a big believer in overcommunicating, so you will always have a clear picture of where things stand. Let's work together!
