Co-Founder @ Measure Studio 📈 AI-Powered Social Media Insights

I’m a 3x entrepreneur and M&A advisor who helps founders sell their businesses.

👋 WHY ME?

After I sold my first startup (Paladin), several founder friends reached out to me. They wanted to know what it was like and what I learned in the process.

A few of them were thinking about selling their companies and asked if I would help. After all, I understood the industry and probably knew most of the potential buyers.

So I agreed to help a few of those friends and found myself with a new side hustle as a boutique investment banker.

After cutting my teeth on a few deals, I realized how much I love working with entrepreneurs, so I made it official and launched my own M&A advisory practice: Quartermast Advisors.

🤝 WHAT I OFFER:

I help my clients manage the entire M&A process from start to finish, which includes:

✭ Preparing your materials (management presentation, financials, etc.)
✭ Identifying and getting in touch with the right buyers
✭ Negotiating the deal structure and economics
✭ Coordinating with legal and tax experts to protect your interests
✭ Asking thoughtful questions and providing useful advice along the way

🤔 WHY WORK WITH AN M&A ADVISOR?

Research shows that hiring a banker results in ~25% higher valuation premiums, on average.

It also frees founders up to continue operating the business and hit their targets. There's nothing worse than poor company performance during a sales process, so it's often more valuable for the team to focus on delivering good results rather than managing M&A discussions.

👨‍💻 WHO I HELP:

I stick to what I know: digital media, tech, and the creator economy. I’ve helped sell influencer agencies, talent management firms, enterprise SaaS companies, and more.

If you’ve been approached or are just thinking about selling your company now or in the future, shoot me a note. I’d be happy to chat and answer any questions.

If I’m the right fit, I’d love to help you out. And if I’m not, I’ll gladly point you in the right direction.

Type a Prompt, Get a Finished, Edited Video Ready to Post. 

As wild as that sounds, this tool has amazed me.

But before I talk about it, hear me out. 

Most early-stage creators quit content creation not because they are not motivated enough, but because they are burnt out. 

Either by spending too much time editing and perfecting the video, or hiring expensive editors who burn their profits down. 

After speaking with dozens of early creators, one pattern is clear: Editing eats the most time and delivers the lowest ROI on effort.

When the team at ChatCut reached out to me, I was immediately impressed.

You can edit an entire video with a simple prompt !!! 

You drop your footage and give one prompt like:

“Edit a YouTube video, add motion graphics where relevant, and generate matching music.”

ChatCut analyzes the footage, identifies hooks, builds a rough cut, adds animations, and handles sound design in minutes.

This effectively replaces the most time-consuming functions in an editing workflow.

Right now it’s invite-only.

If you want the invite link, comment “CODE” and I’ll send it.
