I will build an excel budget, forecast, or financial model
About this Gig
Need a financial model that investors, lenders, or your board can actually understand?
I'm a financial planning and analysis consultant with over 20 years of federal budget experience, including managing a $400 million budget. Today I work as a utility rate analyst, building revenue and rate models every day.
What I build in Excel:
- 3 statement models (income statement, balance sheet, cash flow)
- Budgets and multi year forecasts
- Monte Carlo simulations and scenario analysis
- Break even and cost volume profit analysis
- Startup costs, capital budgets, and sources and uses of funds
- Utility rate and fee reviews
Recent projects include financial models for a healthcare campus, a sports complex development, and a home respiratory care startup.
What makes me different:
Every model has clear formulas, labeled assumptions, and no hidden numbers. Premium orders include a plain English guide that explains every tab in simple language, so you can present your numbers with confidence.
Please message me before ordering so we can confirm your scope and timeline.

FAQ
Q: What information do I need to provide?
A: A short description of your business, any past financial records you have, and your best guesses for sales, costs, and funding. If you're a startup with no history, that's fine. I'll help you build realistic assumptions using industry benchmarks.
Q: Can you fix or update a model I already have?
A: Yes. Send me your file before ordering and I'll review it and send a custom quote. I often find broken formulas, hardcoded numbers, and assumptions that don't match across tabs.
Q: Will I be able to understand and update the model myself?
A: Yes. Every model uses clear formulas, labeled assumptions, and color coded input cells. Premium orders also include a plain English guide explaining every tab, so you can update numbers without calling me.
Q: How many revisions are included?
A: Basic includes 1 revision, Standard includes 2, and Premium includes 3. Revisions cover changes to assumptions or layout. A new scope, such as adding a business line, would be a custom quote.
Q: Will my financial information stay confidential?
A: Yes. I never share client files or numbers, and I'm happy to sign a nondisclosure agreement before you send anything sensitive.
Q: Are you a CPA? Do you prepare taxes?
No. I'm a financial planning and analysis consultant focused on models, budgets, and forecasts. I don't prepare taxes or audited statements, but my models are built to be easy for your CPA or lender to review.
Q: Will a lender or investor accept this model?
A: The models follow the formats lenders expect, including debt coverage and sources and uses of funds.
