The 10-Minute Business Health Check
Running a business keeps you busy in it. This quick, do-it-yourself check is a chance to step back and look at it. It's a condensed version of our full Business Health Check: 24 statements across the same 8 areas, giving you a snapshot of where you're strong, where to focus first, and one practical next step.
Think of it as a starting point, not a full diagnosis. Our professional Health Check goes much deeper, with interviews, a review of key documents and a written roadmap.
- Free and self-guided

How to score
Pick the answer that best describes your business today, not where you hope it will be.
- 1Not true
- 2Rarely true
- 3Somewhat true
- 4Mostly true
- 5Completely true
- ?Not sure (counts as 2)
A tip before you start: most owners score themselves higher on a first pass than an outside reviewer would. If you're torn between two numbers, pick the lower one.
Your results
Here's where your business stands
Most businesses land between 2 and 3 in most areas. That's normal. It usually means the business grew faster than its systems did. The point isn't a perfect score; it's finding the one or two areas where a little attention pays off most.
All 8 areas
Want the full picture?
Our professional Business Health Check goes deeper: interviews with you and your team, a review of key documents, a written report with scores and findings in all 8 areas, and a prioritized roadmap, in about three to four weeks. A self-check shows you where to look; an outside view catches what's hard to see from the inside.
This self-assessment is a general business tool for educational purposes. It is not legal, tax, accounting, insurance, investment or valuation advice, and using it does not create a consulting, attorney-client or other professional relationship. Please consult your own licensed professionals about matters in those areas.
