About Dealmaker

Dealmaker is the systematic progression from revenue advisory to investment banking to principal investing, compressed from decades to a few years.

Founded by Louis Garoz, who built Kadenwood Capital (a FINRA licensed broker-dealer) and orchestrated over $1.3B in transactions, Dealmaker teaches the dual discipline at the heart of every major transaction: generating massive interest and converting it through negotiation.

The Three-Stage Journey:

Genesis:

Master revenue advisory. Scaled to $100K/month by finding underserved markets and commanding premium fees. This is where you develop the foundational dealmaking psychology skillset.

Foundry:

Graduate to capital markets. Build a licensed investment bank capable of executing $50M-$1B+ transactions. Work with Wall Street veterans, close institutional deals, earn 1-10% success fees (6-8 figures).

Sovereign (Coming Soon):

Become a principal. Raise your own fund, execute roll-ups, own equity. This is where advisory skills transform into generational wealth.

Why This Works:

While others compete on price in saturated markets, we teach you to find positions where you're the only logical choice in a starving market.

While MBAs wait 20 years to make partner, our members have potential to build 8-figure firms in 24 months. While traditional finance guards its gates, we've kicked in the backdoor.

The formula is proven. The infrastructure is built. The only variable is your execution.
