WHAT TO EXPECT
Valuation Reality Check (buyer lens) – See what a serious buyer would actually pay for your business today, what they would discount, and how to avoid getting stuck in “transaction purgatory” during diligence.
Exit Readiness Scorecard – Score your company on the levers that move valuation (financial clarity, customer concentration, owner dependency, processes, systems/data, profit trends) and spot the 2–3 biggest gaps holding value back.
Ops + Profit Readiness Roadmap – Leave with a simple 90‑day plan to make your operations more transferable, shore up margins, and tell a profit story buyers will pay more for.
