The Valuation Gap Check

Seven questions.
Find out where your
business sits.

Most business owners approaching exit have a figure in their head. This tool tells you whether the business will support it.

Seven plain English questions. No registration. No technical language. No trick questions. Takes three minutes.

At the end you will see your current position — Captive, Captain or Surfer — and an estimated valuation gap in pounds.

Question 1 of 7 1 / 7

Question 1 of 7

What is your approximate annual EBITDA?

Question 2 of 7

What sector best describes your business?

Question 3 of 7

How dependent is the business on your personal involvement day to day?

I am the business — most key decisions and relationships run through me

I steer it but others run the day-to-day

It largely runs without me — I could be away for a month without it breaking

Question 4 of 7

How much of your operational knowledge is formally documented?

Very little — most of it lives in people's heads

Some processes are written down but not consistently followed

Most processes are documented, up to date and followed by the team

Question 5 of 7

How many key people would significantly disrupt the business if they left tomorrow?

Three or more — several people hold critical knowledge

One or two — there are one or two people we really can't afford to lose

None — the business is system-led and not dependent on individuals

Question 6 of 7

What is your planned exit timeline?

Within 18 months

18 to 36 months

More than 36 months

I am exploring options — no firm timeline yet

Question 7 of 7

Has a buyer, adviser or accountant ever indicated your business might be worth less than you expected?

Yes — I have received a valuation or indication below my expectation

Not yet — but I suspect there may be a gap
