70% of founders are disappointed in the value of their business and lack the tools to figure how to fix it. Are you one of them? This assessment is where you start.
Why Take This Assessment?
Most founders only sell a company once, and you don’t want to learn you were unprepared after the fact. The Exit Horizon Exit Readiness Assessment is a quick, online assessment designed for founders who plan to work on building up their business value before eventually selling. It helps you:
You’ll be speaking with peers – fellow founders who have been through the wringer and know the in’s and out’s of selling a business. We understand the mix of emotion and complexity in working on your business. That means more practical advice and empathy, less textbook jargon.
Benchmark your readiness against key exit criteria. Find out if you’re ahead of the pack or at risk of joining the 75% of owners who regret their exit due to poor preparation.
Receive a readiness score out of 100 plus a brief report highlighting your biggest areas for improvement – so you know where to focus now to increase your business’s value and exit on your terms.
Walk away with clarity. Whether your score is high or low, you’ll have a roadmap for next steps. Think of it as an early warning system to prevent costly mistakes and surprises when you eventually sell.
How It Works:
–
Complete a short online questionnaire about your business’s current state – covering topics like finances, operations, dependence on the owner, and transition planning. (It only takes about 5 minutes.)
–
Instantly see your Exit Readiness score, plus a personalized summary of what you’re doing well and where you have risks or gaps. We’ll pinpoint areas like “Valuation Clarity,” “Management Depth,” or “Succession Readiness” and rate your preparedness in each.
–
Along with your results, you’ll get expert-recommended next steps for improvement. These could include tightening up your financial reporting, diversifying your customer base, or starting to groom a second-in-command. You’ll also have the option to discuss your results on a free call with an Exit Horizon advisor to dive deeper into your plan.
