01 · Scorecard

Scored like a buyer would.

Eleven questions, about three minutes, no documents to upload. We score the business across the dimensions a buyer actually scrutinises and place you in a clear sale-readiness band, so for the first time you can see the company the way the person writing the cheque will.

A business-health scorecardA clear read across the areas that decide value, from the quality of your earnings to how much the business still depends on you.
A sale-readiness bandAn honest placement on the spectrum from not yet sellable to ready for market, with no flattery and no sales pitch attached.
The buyer's-eye viewThe same risks an acquirer would hunt for, surfaced for you before you ever sit across the table from one.
No cost, fully confidentialA genuine piece of analysis given freely, because the right first step should not cost you anything or commit you to anything.

02 · Priorities

What to fix first.

Not a generic checklist. The diagnostic ranks the highest-leverage gaps by their effect on value, so the work you do next goes where it moves the number most, rather than where it simply feels busiest. It is the difference between effort and progress.

Gaps ranked by value impactEvery weakness weighted by how much it actually costs you at sale, so you put your effort into the expensive ones first.
The two or three that matterA short, ordered list of what to tackle now, not a hundred-point audit that paralyses more than it helps.
Quick wins versus long buildsA clear split between what you can fix in weeks and what needs a genuine runway, so you can plan around real timelines.
A place to startThe single most useful output of all: knowing precisely where to put your energy first.

03 · Valuation range

As-is versus prepared.

You leave with an indicative valuation range: the multiple your profile would attract today, and what disciplined preparation could realistically make it worth. It turns "I should probably sort the business out" into a number, with a gap you can actually close.

Your indicative value todayWhat the business would likely fetch if you went to market exactly as you are, priced the way a buyer would price it.
The prepared, higher rangeWhat the same business could be worth with the right gaps closed, so you can see the prize and not just the problem.
The size of the gapThe distance between the two numbers, which is the money preparation exists to recover for you.
An honest go or not-yet callA straight view on whether to move now or build first, with no pressure to do either before you are ready.

Questions, no documents

A focused set you can answer from what you already know, with nothing to upload and no meeting to book.

Minutes, start to report

About three minutes of your time for a structured read on your business most owners have never actually had.

100%

Confidential, always

Your answers are used only to prepare your report. Nothing is listed, nothing is shared, and no one is contacted.

The diagnostic delivers four things: a business health scorecard across the dimensions a buyer scrutinises; a sale-readiness band showing where you stand today; the highest-leverage priorities ranked by their effect on value; and an indicative valuation range showing the multiple for your profile, as-is versus prepared.

"Where you stand in front of a buyer today, and the gaps that matter most, before you have spent a penny or told a soul."
