Is Your Business Too Dependent on You? Take Our 5-Minute Assessment!

When it comes to exit planning, business owner dependency can significantly impact your company’s value. Buyers want a business that runs smoothly without relying on a single person—especially the owner.

Quick & Insightful – Get your results in under 5 minutes.
See Through a Buyer’s Eyes – Understand how owner dependency might affect your business's market appeal.
Simple, No-Pressure Scoring – Rate each statement from 1 to 10. If you're unsure, choose 1—this isn't a test, it’s a tool for growth.

When you complete the assessment, you’ll gain valuable insights into how building a self-sufficient team can boost your business's value and make it more attractive to potential buyers. Let's get started!

You’ll be scored on the following key areas:

Leadership & Decision-Making

Discover how well your business operates without your daily input. From decision-making strength to problem-solving independence, see if your leadership team is ready to thrive without you.

Financial Independence & Scalability

Evaluate how your business generates consistent revenue, manages finances, and scales—without needing your wallet or constant oversight. A financially independent business is a buyer’s dream!

Team Development & Talent Retention

Examine how strong your team is when it comes to independent performance, leadership growth, and retaining top talent. A business with a capable and committed team is far more attractive to potential buyers.

Operations & Systems Efficiency

Assess how well-documented your processes are, how smoothly operations run without you, and if your team can handle onboarding and growth independently. The more self-sufficient, the higher your business value!
