Andy Byer brings a rare combination of firsthand entrepreneurial experience and deep M&A expertise to his role as Broker Associate at M&A Business Advisors. With over 25 years of executive leadership, business development, operations, and sales strategy across multiple industries—including education technology, audiovisual, software, and food distribution—Andy is uniquely equipped to help business owners plan and execute successful exit strategies.
Andy’s journey began with the founding of a snack food distribution company in California, which he scaled and sold successfully. He spent several years as a business broker, guiding entrepreneurs through the sale of their businesses. His ability to empathize with business owners comes not only from his extensive deal-making experience but also from having been in their shoes.
From 2019 to 2025, Andy served as Vice President of Sales at ELB US, Inc., a leader in audiovisual solutions for collaborative learning and meeting environments. He built and led a high-performing sales organization that consistently achieved record-setting results. Andy has also assisted companies with services focused on accelerating growth through strategic partnerships, business development, and sales leadership.
Prior to his role at ELB, Andy held senior positions with Promethean, a global leader in interactive display technology and education software, where he oversaw solution sales and regional leadership across the Western U.S. and Latin America.
Earlier in his career, Andy was instrumental in TriVision Technology’s acquisition of Software Technology, Inc., where he served for 13 years as Executive Vice President of Business Development and Operations. He led both acquisition and divestiture initiatives and drove national growth through strategic roll-ups. He also served as VP of Business Development, Sales and Marketing at TriVision and was co-founder and CEO of eGreatCause.com, an online fundraising company serving over 2,500 schools nationwide.
Andy earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from California State University, Northridge. He is a licensed Broker with the California Department of Real Estate, a member of the California Association of Business Brokers (CABB) and the International Business Brokers Association (IBBA) and holds certification from the Due Diligence Institute.
Business owners looking to navigate the complexities of selling their company will benefit from Andy’s strategic insight, clear communication, and track record of results. His goal is to ensure that every sale is not only successful but deeply rewarding.
