MATHEW BRESELOW
Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA)
Certified Business Broker (CMSBB)
.As a Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA) and M&A Advisor with Blue Sky Business Acquisitions, I help business owners, entrepreneurs, and investors navigate one of the most important financial events of their lives, The sale and Transition of their business.
My career spans more than 20 years in Commercial banking, SBA lending, business finance, and transaction advisory. That experience gives me a unique perspective on the factors that drive business value, financing, deal structure, and successful ownership transitions. Today, I work closely with business owners throughout the Midwest and beyond to prepare for exit, execute transitions, secure growth capital, and maximize enterprise value.
At Blue Sky Business Acquisitions, I advise privately held businesses on mergers and acquisitions, exit planning, succession strategies, and business sales. By combining deep financial expertise with a relationship-driven approach, I help bridge the gap between buyers, sellers, lenders, and investors to create transactions that are both financially sound and strategically aligned.
Whether I'm guiding a first-time buyer through an acquisition, helping a founder prepare for a future exit, or connecting business owners with the right growth opportunities, my focus remains the same: helping clients achieve their goals while preserving the legacy and value they have worked so hard to build.
Areas of Focus:
• Business Acquisitions & Sales
• Exit Planning & Value Growth
• SBA & Conventional Business Financing
• Lower Middle Market M&A
• Deal Structuring & Capital Advisory
• Succession & Ownership Transition Planning
Education: Accounting & Finance, Madison College, Certified Exit Planning Advisor (CEPA), Certified Mainstreet Business Broker (CMSBB)
I welcome conversations with business owners, referral partners, investors, and professionals who are passionate about helping companies grow, transition, and thrive.
