What is YOUR BUSINESS DIAGNOSTIC

by #AppliedStuff?

Inside The Diagnostic

Thirteen areas that shape how your business works.

01

What You Sell

Your value proposition, market fit, and what protects you from being easily replaced.

02

Who Buys It

Acquisition economics, retention health, and whether your customer base is genuinely diversified.

03

How They Find You

Channel strategy, brand durability, and whether you own your relationship with customers or rent it.

04

Money In

Revenue concentration, pricing discipline, and the real health of your top line.

05

How You Deliver

Process documentation, quality control, capacity, and whether operations survive without you.

06

Money Out

Cost behavior, expense discipline, and whether your business is actually profitable after a fair owner salary.

07

Money Flow

Cash runway, forecasting, working capital, and the patterns that quietly drain cash.

08

Who Does The Work

Key-person risk, role clarity, delegation, and whether your team structure can grow.

09

Where You Stand

Competitive position, market intelligence, and your strategic direction.

10

How You Decide

Decision frameworks, performance monitoring, and how you learn from what you get wrong.

11

What Can Break

Risk identification, contingencies, legal protection, and platform vulnerability.

12

How You Grow

Growth readiness, knowledge transfer, and whether growth will break what you've built.

13

What If You Step Back

Transferability, your independence from the business, and whether it can run without you.

What Makes Us Different

Fact-Based

Most business assessments play to your ego. They count wins, inflate strengths, and frame everything in motivational terms. This diagnostic looks at the underlying operating mechanics instead. The shape of your unit economics. Your real exposure to single-source revenue. Whether the business survives without you.

A solo operator building a lifestyle business has different needs than a founder scaling to sell more. Which is why we have 17 introduction questions. Answer them like they matter - because they do.

Covers What Matters

Read more

Most diagnostics focus on what's easy to measure. Revenue, employee count, marketing channels - you name it. But whether you own your customer relationships or rent them from a platform. Whether your pricing is based on evidence or intuition. Whether your business is actually profitable after paying yourself a fair salary. That's where we look.
