Meet
Jeff Greenspan
An IT company founder, two-time business seller, and credentialed financial modeler — bringing first-hand experience to every M&A and advisory engagement.
Financial Modeling Service was founded on a simple idea: the best advisor for an IT business owner is someone who has actually been one. Jeff Greenspan founded and ran an IT consulting company for nearly 30 years, sold it twice, and spent that time completing advanced degrees in engineering and finance. Today he brings that combination of real-world experience and rigorous financial expertise to IT M&A transactions, business valuations, and succession planning engagements.
Jeff Greenspan
An engineering graduate of The Johns Hopkins University , Jeff started and ran an IT consulting company from 1986 to 2013 — evolving it from software design and development through networking to a managed services model, and selling it twice along the way. Since 2013 he has focused on intermediary and advisory services for IT companies, along with financial modeling for businesses and real estate investors.
Jeff has completed two Master's degrees alongside his professional practice, including a Master's in Finance at the University of Florida's Warrington School of Business . His current focus is building Financial Modeling Service into a recognized authority in the IT M&A space — leveraging a strong professional network, first-hand knowledge of what it means to own and sell an IT business, and a deep content library from his podcast, career, and education.
He also serves on the board of Elder Options of North Central Florida , the state-designated area agency on aging, and continues to volunteer with SCORE.org in a reduced capacity as his focus shifts toward FMS.
