Build a Business That's

Valuable and Sellable

It all started with a book...

Built to Sell became a must-read for small business owners looking to create a company that thrives without them—and sells for top dollar. That idea grew into an assessment to help owners evaluate their business and then a suite of tools to unlock its value.

Today we call it The Value Builder System™. With over 80,000 business owners using our tools, we’re here to help you protect, grow, and realize the value of your company.

Start your Value Builder journey, and see how your business stacks up.

Three Ways We Help

Assess the Value of Your Business

Written in the same approachable style that has made Built to Sell the world’s most popular exit book, the owner-friendly Value Builder Report gives you an estimate of the value of your company plus a roadmap for improving it.

Determine Your Personal Readiness to Exit

Seventy-four percent of owners have regrets one year after they exit their business. The PREScore™ (Personal Readiness to Exit Score) Report assesses whether you are psychologically ready to exit your business, helping you avoid disappointment after the sale.

Measure Your Financial Readiness to Exit

The Freedom Score Report helps you determine whether you are financially prepared to sustain your desired lifestyle after you exit your business. The report encourages you to think about life beyond your business and map out a roadmap to financial freedom.
