What We Do

One firm. Two practices, kept firmly apart.

Investment Consulting USA represents business owners who are selling. A separate practice, Deal Structure Advisory, helps buyers get a deal financed and closed. Neither practice ever works on the other’s transactions, so every client knows exactly whose side we are on.

01 — FOR OWNERS◆

Sell-Side Advisory

Our main practice since 2018. We tell you what your business is worth, help you prepare if the timing is not yet right, and represent you from the first buyer conversation through closing and transition, with the same senior advisor at every stage.

  • Business Assessment of Value
  • Exit Planning & Business Prep Advisory
  • Seller Representation: before market, on the market, at closing, in transition

02 — FOR BUYERS⚖

Deal Structure Advisory

The Deal Structure Experts. Deals die because of poor structure, not because the business or the buyer was bad. Send us the CIM and the structure you have in mind. You get a written verdict, the structure a lender will fund, and time with a senior M&A advisor.

  • Deal and CIM reviews with an SBA financing fit check
  • One-on-one sessions with a senior M&A advisor
  • Packages from $199, and a monthly plan for active searchers
Explore Deal Structure Advisory

Never on a deal we represent. Read the independence policy.

The line between the two. Our sell-side team never reviews, coaches on or structures a deal for a buyer of a business we represent, and Deal Structure Advisory never works for a buyer who is under contract on one of our engagements. If a deal you send us turns out to be one of ours, we tell you before any work starts.
Our Approach

Counsel you can rely on — even when it is not what you hoped to hear.

Most firms are compensated to bring you to market today. We have built our reputation on a different discipline: giving owners an honest assessment of their business, their timing, and their value — and proceeding only when it genuinely serves their interests.

01 — INTEGRITY ⚖

We decline more than we accept

We take on only the clients we are confident we can serve well. If your business is not yet ready, or we are not the right fit, we will tell you directly and point you toward a better path — with no engagement and no pressure.

02 — DISCRETION ●

A private process, end to end

The sale of a business is a confidential matter. Our off-market approach ensures your staff, customers, and competitors remain unaware until you decide otherwise — protecting both your operations and your negotiating position.

03 — VALUE ▲

Prepared sellers command more

A period of preparation — clean financials, precise positioning, a stronger pool of buyers — can change your outcome by seven figures. We help you sell from a position of strength rather than urgency.

Track Record

Closed quietly. Often for more than the local advice said.

Four recent closings, described by type and state only. Company names are never published, before or after a sale. Together the firm has closed more than $108 million in transaction value.

Meet Your Advisors

Two advisors. One standard.

Owner-level attention, the same two people from the first conversation to the closing table. Between them, the partners have also worked on institutional transactions in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

AB

Alejandra B. Barrera

Founding Partner & Senior M&A Advisor

Advising business owners since 2015 and a co-founder of the firm in 2018. Two years on Deloitte’s Integration & Divestiture team on multinational mergers and divestitures. She leads valuation and deal structuring, negotiates terms on the owner’s behalf, and directs lenders, CPAs and attorneys through diligence to closing.

AM

Alfonso E. Moncada

Managing Partner & Senior M&A Advisor

Co-founded the firm in 2018 after cross-border institutional transactions in infrastructure and corporate development, then time inside a regional bank learning underwriting from the lender’s side. He reads a business the way a lender and a buyer will, and brings qualified buyers from across the United States and Latin America to the table.

Questions We Hear First

Straight answers before you pick up the phone.

Will anyone find out my business is for sale?
No. We never list your business publicly without your approval, and most of our engagements are never listed at all. Every prospective buyer signs a confidentiality agreement before your company is identified, and your employees, customers and competitors remain unaware until you decide otherwise.
Do I need to be ready to sell before contacting you?
Not at all. Many of the owners we work with are one to three years away from a sale. A Business Assessment of Value tells you where you stand today and what would move the number, and often the best advice is to prepare first. Exit Planning & Business Prep is built for exactly that.
Do you also represent buyers?
We represent owners in the sale of their business. For buyers we offer Deal Structure Advisory: written deal reviews with a financing fit check and sessions with a senior advisor. It is a separate practice, and it never works on a business we represent or for a buyer under contract on one of our engagements.
What kinds of businesses do you work with?
Owner-operated, privately held businesses across trades and services, healthcare, technology, real estate, retail and e-commerce, typically with revenue between $1 million and $50 million. We work nationwide from Miami and bring qualified buyers from across the U.S. and Latin America.
How do fees work?
Plainly and up front. Sell-side fees are discussed in our first conversation, and there is no obligation of any kind until you decide to engage us. Deal Structure Advisory packages are priced on the page, from $199.
How quickly will I hear back?
A senior advisor will contact you privately, typically within one business day.
