Build Models That Actually Work
Real-world financial modeling resources for Australian business professionals who want practical skills
We've been teaching financial modeling since 2019, and one thing keeps coming up. People don't need another textbook theory. They need templates they can use tomorrow, examples from actual companies, and guidance that makes sense when you're staring at a spreadsheet at 11 PM trying to meet a deadline.
Access Our ResourcesMaterials Built From Client Work
Everything here came from projects we've done. When a manufacturing client needed cash flow projections, we built a template. When a retail chain wanted scenario planning, we created a framework. Now those tools are available to you.
-
Excel Templates & Frameworks
Pre-built models for DCF analysis, three-statement integration, and sensitivity testing. Download them, plug in your numbers, and adapt as needed.
-
Case Study Archives
Anonymized examples from real Australian businesses. See how a Sydney tech startup modeled their Series A, or how a Brisbane property developer structured their debt.
-
Video Walkthroughs
Screen recordings where we build models from scratch. No fancy editing, just the actual process of thinking through assumptions and building formulas.

Common Mistake Guides
We've reviewed hundreds of models over the years. These guides show the errors we see repeatedly and how to avoid them in your own work.
How We Structure Learning
Our materials follow a progression that's worked for over 300 professionals across Australia. Start wherever makes sense for your current skill level.
Foundation Components
The building blocks — how to structure assumptions, link statements properly, and create flexibility in your models. These fundamentals show up in every project, whether you're working on a k loan or a m acquisition.
Industry Applications
Different sectors need different approaches. A SaaS company model looks nothing like a manufacturing business. We break down the specific considerations for retail, tech, property, and professional services.
Advanced Techniques
Once you've got the basics, we get into scenario planning, Monte Carlo simulation, and dynamic dashboarding. These aren't always necessary, but when you need them, you really need them.
People Using These Materials
Financial professionals across Australia who've applied these resources to real projects
Remy Cartwright
Corporate Finance, Melbourne
The DCF template saved me probably 15 hours on a recent valuation. I've built dozens of these before, but having a solid starting structure with all the error checks already built in made the process so much smoother. Used it for three deals now.
Petra Donnelly
Financial Planning, Perth
I'm not an Excel expert by any means, but these resources are clear enough that I could adapt them for client presentations. The video walkthroughs especially helped me understand the logic behind the formulas, not just copy-paste them blindly.
