Very few stop to ask whether they – or their business – are truly ready to achieve the outcome they want.
Exit Readiness is a paid, structured diagnostic designed to answer that question before any process begins. It combines strategic analysis, market perspective, and practical insight into a clear view of what an optimal exit could realistically look like for you.
All work is performed by Mark and his senior team – meaning thoughtful, high-quality outputs grounded in decades of sell-side experience, supported by real market evidence rather than exaggeration or speculation.
Too many founders enter a sell-side process before understanding how buyers see their business, how positioning influences valuation, or whether the timing is right at all.
Exit Readiness exists to close that gap.
It provides an honest, deep, structured assessment of where you stand today – what valuation range the global market may realistically support, how your story resonates with buyers, and what would need to change to maximise outcome.
Sometimes the conclusion is to proceed.
Sometimes it is to wait.
Both outcomes create leverage.
Optimal exits are not negotiated at the end. They are designed from the beginning.
This is not a generic report. It is a working perspective developed directly by Mark and his senior team about your business – informed by the information you provide and supported by detailed research and analysis.
Founders and shareholders of privately held businesses typically valued north of $50 million who are:
Considering initiating an exit process within the next 3–36 months
Unsure whether timing is right
Unclear how their business may be perceived by buyers
Seeking an objective perspective before committing to advisors
Looking to understand what an exceptional outcome might realistically require
The Exit Readiness diagnostic is available by request.
Every engagement begins with a conversation to determine whether it is the right fit and whether it would genuinely add value to your situation.
