Meet The Founder
I pivoted YourBigBank to M&A accounting because I saw too many great businesses lose value... not because they weren’t profitable, but because their numbers didn’t hold up under pressure. I’ve worked with founders in high-stakes moments: raising capital, securing loans, preparing for acquisition, or cleaning up messy books right before due diligence. And I’ve seen firsthand how often smart entrepreneurs are let down by accountants who aren’t built for investor scrutiny. That’s where we come in. My goal is to make sure your financials tell the full story, the right way, the first time. So when a buyer, banker, or investor looks under the hood, they see exactly what you’ve built: a valuable, trustworthy business. We don’t just do cleanup. We build confidence. Line by line.

Prevent Deals Busters With a Proactive,
Audit-Ready Reporting System.
Expose risks before buyers do, so you can neutralize them and protect your valuation.
How It Works
Early Stage - Identify what buyers value, clean up books, get valuation clarity.
Document Oriented Accounting
Accounting that isn't systemized is the first source of confusion in your business.
YourBigBank will work with your team to gather all of your financial documents, structure your Chart of Accounts, track your invoices & bills, and writing accounting policies that guide the categorization of transactions.
Mid Stage - Remove deal-killers, make the business simple and compelling.
Prepare Audit Ready Financials
It's not enough to have your team just set up your system -- it also needs to be able to pass an audit.
YourBigBank will review your financials, correct errors, and write the appropriate disclosures to deliver the trial balance to the audit team.
Late Stage - Build your exit timeline, founder narrative, and buyer confidence.
Financial Reporting, Planning, & Analysis
Without a clear financial picture, pitching your business value to a buyer is difficult.
YourBigBank will issue audited financials that will lead to a budget & forecast of financials, so that we can create an internal valuation for you in support of the picture that you're selling to buyers.
Case Study
My client has a brilliant idea that they wanted to bring to life so they decided to raise money but that meant they needed to get a private placement memorandum done so once they raised money they needed to track all their money according to US GAAP so they hired an accountant but he turned out to be incompetent and he ruined the books. In the meantime they negotiated a sale of their assets to a public company. So they needed their accounting records to be GAAP compliant. So they hired me. But they didn't have all of their supporting documents. So I started with what I could and used their team members to collect the supporting documents and help with the accounting entries. And eventually we were able to get the books 98% done. This was good enough to pass the audit.
Answer to some questions we get often
What if I’m not 100% sure I’m going to sell my business right now?
Preparing your financials well in advance is key to a smooth sale process. Buyers will feel more confident in your business when you can easily demonstrate its value and future potential. Getting started now ensures you have everything ready when the time is right.
What if I already have an accountant?
Having an accountant is valuable, but ensuring your financials meet the stringent GAAP standards and are audit-ready is crucial when you’re looking to sell. These steps can help prevent delays or challenges during due diligence, potentially saving you time and securing a better sale.
Can’t I just organize the books myself?
While you can handle some bookkeeping tasks, the complexity of creating GAAP-compliant, audit-ready financials is time-consuming and technical. By allowing us to handle this, you’re reducing the risk of errors and ensuring everything is ready for due diligence, potentially avoiding issues during the sale.
Why are future financial projections so important?
Buyers don’t just look at your business’s past performance; they want to know what it will look like in the future. Accurate financial forecasts allow you to demonstrate future earning potential, making your business more attractive and increasing its value in the eyes of potential buyers.
What if we don’t need to worry about GAAP compliance?
Even for smaller businesses, GAAP compliance provides a level of trust and transparency that buyers are looking for. It shows that your financials are in order and can pass an audit, which reduces risk for the buyer and can lead to more competitive offers.
What if I’m not sure your service fits my specific business model?
Every business has unique aspects, and that’s why we tailor our financial verification process to your specific needs. We work closely with you to understand your business model and industry, ensuring your financials reflect the true value and future potential of your business.
How do I know that working with Your Big Bank will actually lead to selling my business closer to my dream valuation?
That’s a valid concern. Our process ensures that all financials are clear, accurate, and presented in a way that gives potential buyers confidence in your business’s ability to generate earnings, which often results in higher offers and better terms.
What if I don’t have the bandwidth to deal with this?
We handle the heavy lifting for you. Our team takes care of gathering, organizing, and preparing your financials, so you can focus on running your business while we ensure everything is in order for a smooth sale when the time comes.
What if I’m uncomfortable sharing sensitive financial information with a third party?
We understand that confidentiality is a top priority. Our processes are designed with the highest standards of security and privacy. Your financial data is only used to prepare the necessary reports and is kept strictly confidential to ensure your privacy throughout the sale process.
What if the price is out of my current budget?
I understand how price can be a concern, especially when you're selling a business. However, clean and GAAP-compliant financials can drastically increase the final sale price and overall value. By investing now, you could see a much higher return at the point of sale, ensuring you’re not leaving money on the table.
