EXIT READINESS WORKSHOP

Exit Readiness Workshop: 90 minutes that turn your score into a plan

You took the assessment. You saw the gaps. Now let's walk through what they mean for your enterprise value — and build the prioritized action plan that addresses the 3 highest-leverage dimensions first.

An Exit Readiness Workshop is a 90-minute one-on-one working session that reviews your business across the 8 dimensions PE firms evaluate during diligence — owner dependency, revenue quality, sales infrastructure, financial reporting, operational documentation, management depth, growth trajectory, and legal transferability. It identifies your 3 highest-leverage gaps and produces a written 90-day action plan with specific tasks, sequence, and time estimates. The Workshop is built around your Exit Readiness Score results and is designed to be valuable as a standalone engagement — no further commitment required.

THE FORMAT

What happens in the Exit Readiness Workshop

This isn't a sales call, a webinar, or a generic consultation. It's a working session. We come prepared. You come honest. We leave with a plan.

BEFORE

We prepare on our end

You take the Exit Readiness Score and share your results. We review your scores across all 8 dimensions, prepare targeted questions for your weakest areas, and research your industry and competitive landscape.

  • 1–2 hours of preparation
  • Customized question set
  • Industry-specific context
DURING · 90 MINUTES

We work through your gaps together

Dimension by dimension, we dig into specifics: which clients are relationship-dependent, where revenue concentration creates risk, what's missing from your CRM and pipeline, what a buyer's QoE team would flag in your financials.

  • Top 3 gaps identified
  • Enterprise value impact quantified
  • 90-day action plan built live
AFTER · 48 HOURS

You get a written deliverable

A Workshop Summary with your dimension-by-dimension analysis, top 3 priority gaps with specific recommendations, 90-day action plan, and a map of which tools and templates apply to each priority.

  • Written analysis you keep
  • Actionable 90-day plan
  • Tool recommendations mapped

You keep the deliverable. The Workshop Summary and action plan are yours whether or not you engage with us further. Many owners execute the plan themselves. Some use it to brief their CPA, attorney, or M&A advisor. It's designed to be useful on its own.

WHAT COMES NEXT

What comes after the Exit Readiness Workshop

The Workshop is designed to be complete on its own — but it often opens a door to deeper engagement. Most owners follow one of three paths:

1

Self-execute with our tools

You take the action plan and run it yourself using the priorities, sequence, and tools we've identified. Many owners pair the Workshop with the Exit-Ready System ($397) for implementation templates. This is the most common path for owners 3+ years from transition.

2

Strategic Assessment

The Workshop reveals gaps more complex than a self-guided plan can address. You want a comprehensive, buyer-lens diagnostic with enterprise value modeling and a longer-term roadmap. Workshop clients receive a credit toward the Strategic Assessment.

3

Value Creation Partnership

You want us alongside you as you build. The Workshop gave you the diagnosis and the plan. The Partnership gives you expertise, accountability, and guidance to execute it with your team over months. Learn more about how we work together →

No pressure toward any path. The deliverable stands on its own. What you do with it is your decision.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Before you book

How is the Exit Readiness Workshop different from a free consultation?+
A free consultation is a sales conversation. The Workshop is a working session with a paid deliverable. We prepare for 1–2 hours before the session, spend 90 minutes in focused analysis, and deliver a written action plan within 48 hours. It's designed to be valuable whether or not you engage further.
Can I bring my business partner or leadership team?+
Yes — we encourage it. The most productive Workshops include the owner plus 1–2 key team members who will be involved in executing the action plan. No additional charge for additional participants.
What if my Exit Readiness Score is really low?+
That's actually the best time to do the Workshop. A low score means high leverage — the gap between where you are and where you could be represents the most enterprise value opportunity. The Workshop helps you prioritize the 3 improvements that create the most value in the shortest time.
Do I need the Starter Kit or Exit-Ready System before booking?+
No. The only prerequisite is the free Exit Readiness Score. If you've already purchased the Starter Kit or System, we'll reference those tools in your action plan and credit what you've spent toward the Workshop price.
