Nearly 20 years managing financial strategy inside 8- and 9-figure companies — not as a passive reporter of results, but as the person responsible for the financial decisions that determined whether the business survived, scaled, or sold. Now he brings that same discipline to the business owners who need it most and have never had access to it.
These are not marketing claims. They are the specific strengths his clients notice first, describe most often, and value most deeply.
Matt walks into a business with messy, unreliable, or non-existent financial infrastructure — and rebuilds it from the ground up. Going into QuickBooks, diagnosing what is wrong, cleaning up the chart of accounts, building a proper month-end close, setting up job costing, creating a cash flow forecast, and defining KPIs that actually mean something to a business owner in their industry. By the end of 90 days, the financial foundation is unrecognisable from what it was.
This capability is rare because it combines deep technical accounting knowledge with practical systems thinking and the patience to do the detail work properly. Most advisors want to provide strategy. Matt builds the infrastructure first — because strategy without clean numbers is guesswork.
Matt takes financial data — however raw or complex — and translates it into the two or three things a business owner actually needs to understand right now to make a better decision. He doesn’t overwhelm with reports. He covers the essential facts, speaks plainly, and makes it easy for a non-financial person to grasp what the numbers mean for their hiring, their pricing, their cash position, and their growth.
Clients consistently describe this as the thing that makes Matt feel different from every accountant or financial advisor they have worked with before. He understands the full picture, reconfigures it into the clearest possible presentation, and communicates only what moves the decision forward.
Having been inside three companies that went through exits, Matt knows what clean books look like from the outside — from the perspective of a banker, an acquirer, or an investor. He knows what a credible forecast looks like, what a due diligence process demands, and what kills a deal or a loan application before it starts.
This gives him the ability to help a small business owner build toward a financial story that stands up to external scrutiny — whether that is a bank conversation, a business sale, or simply the confidence to bring on a serious growth partner. Most small business owners will never get this perspective without someone who has been inside that process. Matt has — three times.
This is not a business that was started because it seemed like a good market opportunity. It was started because Matt had been inside the problem long enough to know exactly who needed what he had to offer — and who had never been able to access it.
Matt spent his career as a CFO and finance leader inside growing companies — guiding investments, restructures, and acquisitions. He was not a passive reporter of results. He was the person making the financial decisions that determined whether the business grew, stalled, or got sold.
His last three corporate employers were all acquired or sold. He was there for the financial preparation, the due diligence, the strategic positioning. Each transition left him with the same question: what is next for me? After the third exit, it hit differently. He realised that while he had been helping companies build toward exits, he had not been building something of his own.
Matt turned down traditional CFO opportunities after the third exit. Roles that came with stability, prestige, and a predictable income. He said no — and it was genuinely scary — because he knew that if he went back into a corporate seat, he would spend another decade helping large organisations that already had teams of advisors and consultants. The people who actually needed what he had would never benefit from it.
What kept surfacing was the other side of the equation: the small business owners. The construction company doing $5M a year with no idea which jobs made money. The landscaper who had worked 60-hour weeks for a decade and could not tell you his actual margin. The trades operator sitting across from a banker, unable to explain his own cash flow. These were the people who needed what Matt had — and who had never had access to it. Not because they did not deserve it, but because the financial services industry had decided they were not big enough to be worth the effort. OiProfit exists to change that.

Matt finishes what he starts and holds himself to an uncompromising standard of delivery. If he says it will be done, it will be done. This is not a claim — it is the consistent feedback from every client he has ever served.
He does not hide behind jargon or complexity. He explains financial concepts in ways a non-financial person can genuinely understand and act on. This is the single most consistent piece of client feedback he receives.
The first thing a dream client notices about Matt is that he listens before he advises. He understands your situation before he offers a solution. That is rare in financial services — and his clients value it deeply.
Matt’s approach honours what you have already built and positions the financial work as making that foundation worthy of the business sitting on top of it. He does not talk down to operators. He respects the craft.
Matt is not just a financial strategist. He is a husband, a father, and a person driven by faith, family, and the belief that meaningful work should fund a meaningful life — not consume it.
He built OiProfit specifically so that it would support his life from day one, not five years from now. That same principle drives how he works with clients: the goal is a business that funds your life, not one that drains it.
