Readiness Check
Why Readiness Matters Before Selling
Most owners spend years building their business — but very few take the time to prepare it for an eventual sale. The result? Up to 75% of businesses never sell, or sell for far less than they’re worth.
The #1 reason isn’t lack of buyers. It’s lack of readiness.
A buyer isn’t just purchasing revenue — they’re buying systems, people, and a company that can thrive without you. If those things aren’t in place, your leverage disappears and your valuation suffers.
A BUSINESS THAT YOU CAN SELL IS A GREAT BUSINESS TO OWN
The Readiness Framework
We use a simple but powerful framework to evaluate whether your
business is truly ready for a successful exit.
Business Readiness
Is your company transferable and scalable? Do you have documented systems, a leadership team that can run operations, and recurring revenue streams that prove predictability? Buyers pay premiums for businesses that run like well-oiled machines.
Financial Readiness
Are your books accurate, your cash flow consistent, and your valuation range realistic? Clean, organized financials aren’t just compliance — they’re confidence for buyers. Transparency reduces risk and boosts offers.
Personal Readiness
Are you ready? A sale isn’t just financial — it’s personal. Understanding your timing, goals, and post-exit vision ensures you don’t just close a deal, but that you exit on the right terms for you and your family.

Quick FAQ
What if I’m not ready to sell now?
That’s completely fine. In fact, the earlier you measure your readiness, the more time you’ll have to strengthen value drivers and protect your options.
Is my score confidential?
Yes. Your results are 100% private and meant only for your own planning.
Why should I check readiness if I’m years away from selling?
Because markets change, and opportunities come fast. Owners who prepare early always have the flexibility to choose their timing — and secure the best outcomes.

Want to see where you stand right now?
Every business owner exits — the only question is whether it happens on your terms. The sooner you prepare, the more options you have.
