THE BUSINESS OPERATIONS AUDIT - £395

The essential first step for any founder whose business still runs on them. We show you exactly how much it does, and what to do about it.


Business Operations Audit

You already know the business leans on you too heavily. You feel it every time you try to take a day off.

What you don't have is the full picture. Where it depends on you. What that's quietly costing you. What to fix first.

The Business Operations Audit gives you that picture as a number. Your Founder Dependency Score, with my eyes on your business and a sequenced plan to bring it down.

No hidden extras. No ongoing commitment required. The £395 is credited in full against your first retainer month if you book within 30 days.


A number, not a feeling

Most audits hand you a feeling. This one hands you a score.

We measure how dependent your business is on you today, across five areas: Decisions, Knowledge, Delivery, Revenue, Resilience.

If you go on to work with me, we measure again. You watch the number move.

That's your return. Measured, not promised.


What's included

→ An in-depth pre-call questionnaire. A detailed set of questions before we meet, so we arrive already across your business. The more you share, the deeper we go.

→ A 90-minute online working session. Not a sales call. A structured conversation about how your business really runs. The people, the processes, the pressure points, and what's quietly costing you time.

→ Your Founder Dependency Score and full written report. We analyse everything, score your business across all five areas, and hand you my read on each. Delivered within five working days. Clear, practical, jargon-free.

→ A prioritised action plan. Not a list of problems. A ranked, sequenced roadmap of what to change and in what order. Yours to act on, whether you continue with me or not.

→ A follow-up check-in. We make sure it all lands and answer anything before you move forward.


Why this works

I've spent years inside founder-led businesses. I know where dependency hides, and it's rarely where you'd look first.

I don't just hand you a score. I tell you what it means, and exactly what to do about it.

That's the difference between a report you file away and a plan you can act on.


What you can expect

  1. Book and complete your questionnaire. A detailed prep form so we make the most of every minute.
  2. We meet online for 90 minutes. An honest, structured look at how your business really runs. The good, the messy, and everything in between.
  3. We do the work behind the scenes. Analysis, operational mapping, and your score across all five areas.
  4. You receive your report and action plan. Within five working days. Prioritised, practical, ready to act on.
  5. A follow-up check-in. We make sure everything is clear before you decide your next step.

The £395 covers the full process, typically five to seven hours of expert time start to finish. Credited against your first retainer month if you proceed within 30 days.


What staying this dependent costs you

Think about what one month of founder-dependency actually costs you.

→ The hours every week that only you can do

→ The growth capped at your own capacity

→ The risk if you step away, for any reason

£395 is a fraction of one month of that. The audit isn't the cost. Staying stuck is.

Ready to find out exactly how much your business depends on you?

Stop guessing. The Business Operations Audit gives you the number, the reasons behind it, and the plan to change it.

Please note: This audit tool is designed as a self-directed framework to help business owners reflect on their operations. It does not constitute a professional business assessment, nor does it replace tailored professional advice. 

Prefer to start on your own?

The DIY version walks you through the same five areas at your own pace. You score yourself, see where your business leans on you hardest, and leave with your first moves.

And the £97 comes off your Business Operations Audit if you decide you'd rather have it done with you.

Not sure if it's the right fit?

If you're not certain whether the Operations Audit is what your business needs right now, get in touch. We're happy to have a no-pressure conversation to help you figure out the best next step - whether that's the audit or something else entirely.
