Your Sellability Score showed you where a buyer may start asking questions.
The Buyer-Ready Audit goes under the hood to determine which of those issues are real, which ones could affect a future deal, and what deserves your attention first.
$1,500 one-time
From the outside, I can identify the areas I would investigate if I were evaluating your business as a buyer.
But I can’t tell from public information alone whether those things are actual problems.
That requires looking at what is really happening inside the business.
Your Sellability Score might reveal a question about owner dependence.
The Audit determines how dependent the business actually is on you, where that dependence shows up, and whether it could complicate a transition.
The Score might reveal a question about earnings.
The Audit looks at what supports those earnings, what may require explanation, and what needs to be cleaned up or documented.
The Score might identify a transferability question.
The Audit determines what actually needs to transfer and where the risk may be.
The goal isn’t to create a longer list of things to worry about.
It’s to figure out what matters and what doesn’t.
We go deeper into the areas that could matter to a buyer, using your actual business information rather than what can be seen from the outside.
Some things that look concerning from the outside turn out to be fine.
Others deserve attention.
We determine which is which.
Not every issue deserves the same amount of time, money, or attention.
We identify what could matter most in a future transaction and what can wait.
You leave knowing what to address first, what comes next, and what you can leave alone.
You should leave the Audit knowing:
What needs fixing.
What needs proving.
What needs documenting.
And what doesn’t deserve your attention right now.
The Buyer-Ready Audit is designed to help you prepare the business before a transaction.
It is not:
Where specialized professional advice is needed, the Audit identifies the question so you know what to take to the appropriate attorney, CPA, lender, broker, or other professional.
The Buyer-Ready Audit is designed primarily for owners of established businesses who may sell in the next 1–3 years.
It is especially useful if:
The best time to find a problem is while you still have options for fixing it.
I’ve spent 30+ years inside founder-led businesses working across operations, finance, teams, and systems. I’ve scaled a company from startup to roughly $5M in annual revenue and spent a decade in bookkeeping.
I’ve also evaluated a business from the buyer’s side. I walked away from a $1.1M acquisition after due diligence revealed issues that changed the economics and risk of the deal.
That experience is why this process is built around a simple question:
“What would I want to understand before I put my money into this business?”

One focused engagement to determine where your business actually stands and what deserves your attention before a buyer is asking the questions.
Your Audit should leave you knowing what deserves your attention and what to do next.
