Tell me if you relate...

You need to build a model but wish someone would just show you how

There's tons of manual entry and likely errors
-
You have a tight deadline and are feeling overwhelmed
I've Been There.
I can't tell you how many stressed hours and sleepless nights I spent learning financial modeling.
The statement of cash flows used to drive me nuts. After all, the answer was right there in front of me, I just couldn't get it.
People would just send me junk. No formatting. No consistency. 70 million tabs. Errors everywhere.
Enough.
After many years in Corporate Finance, Consulting, and Private Equity, I set out on my own to change financial modeling education.
I wanted to take away the opaqueness and confusion.
So, I created courses for the rest of us. People.
Not sterile textbooks, long lectures, or mindless debits and credits.
I wanted relatable instruction that could be applied immediately, without all the nonsense and over-complication for it's own sake.
So I created these courses to change the game...

About Me
I'm Chris -- with over 15 years of experience in Corporate Finance, Consulting, Private Equity, & Entrepreneurship -- I create financial modeling courses that are taught like we're sitting at the kitchen table, not the conference table.
Financial models can be complicated, but education doesn't have to be. I don't teach "Excel courses," rather, I teach business knowledge through the discipline of a financial model (and we learn some awesome Excel skills along the way).
These models aren't "illustrative," they're the exact models I use with FP&A teams and Private Equity firms around the world.
I've been lucky enough to help thousands of students take their business and financial modeling skills to the next level, and I know I can help you too.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Who is this course for?
Finance professionals who want a no BS, straight-to-the point way to build a 3-Statement model correctly and be done before lunch.
-
Why should I listen to you? Who are you?
My name is Chris Reilly -- I have 15+ years experience in Consulting, Corporate Finance, and Private Equity. My financial models have been used by real companies all over the world, and have also been featured with Wall Street Prep, FTI Consulting, Business Insider, and others. You definitely don't have to listen to me, but these models have been distinguished throughout my career.
-
Okay, this must be expensive right?
No, it's only $299 and is heavily discounted compared to a la carte pricing.
-
How is this different from one of those $997 "Master Classes"?
It's not -- it's just as good. I just honestly think those "Master Classes" are insanely over-priced and under-valued. Nothing on the Internet should cost that much.
-
Can't I Google a lot of this and get it for free?
Yeah, maybe. But you've got to think about the time it would take and the credibility of what you find. The whole point of paying for a course is that you know you're getting accurate and complete information.
-
Will I get lifetime access?
Absolutely. Start and stop completely on your timeline. Nothing expires -- so you can always revisit the content as your career progresses.
-
What if I don't like it?
I offer a 30-Day, 100% Money Back Guarantee with no questions asked. Why? I'm confident you're going to love it. If not, you just let me know.

"This template and course did what I was attempting to do from scratch - combine all of the best "best practices" for 3 statement model building - into one straightforward model. Also added is the confidence that this model has been used for years in the Private Equity space and if it is good enough for PE firms and banks, it will be good enough for me and my clients.
