How to answer the 67 questions

Rating questions: choose a number from 1 to 10 using the descriptions below each scale. 1 is the lower-readiness end; 10 is the stronger-readiness end. Choose an in-between number that best reflects your business today.

Dropdown questions: select the listed response that best describes your business. These answers record a range or category rather than a 1–10 rating.

Select I don't know if you cannot assess an item. Unknown and skipped answers are reported separately. Your preliminary grade is based on self-reported information and reviewed by Pitkin Business Group.

There are nine sections. You can return to earlier sections and review your responses before submitting. Keep this page open until you finish; reloading clears your answers.

How Pitkin uses your information

Want the full picture? The paid Exit Grade™ Analysis is delivered as an Exit Grade™ Position Report, with a dimension-by-dimension breakdown and prioritized improvement roadmap. It can include a Broker's Opinion of Value (BOV) after review of the necessary financial records and market evidence, plus a discussion of acquisition financing readiness. The preliminary grade is based on your self-reported answers; a BOV requires additional information and review. Ask about crediting your analysis fee toward listing or advisory services.
