Financial Health
Profitability, stability, clean books
Operations
Automation, vendors, tech complexity
Owner Dependency
Can it run without you?
Growth Trajectory

Why This Matters
Buyers may ask for financial records, evidence that operations can transfer, and an explanation of dependencies and risks. Preparing those materials helps you identify gaps before a buyer reviews them.
This assessment helps you see your business through a buyer's eyes—before they do.
