About this audiobook
What is your business really worth—and how much value are you leaving untapped?

Written for owners generating $3 million or more in annual revenue, this practical guide reveals the six drivers of business value: profitability, customer predictability, operational systems, leadership capacity, scale readiness and owner independence. Discover how to identify your biggest Value Constraint, uncover hidden opportunities and build a focused 12-month plan to close the gap between what your business is worth today and what it could become. Whether you want to scale, prepare for sale or regain control of your time, you’ll learn how to strengthen the asset you already own. Build a business that gives you more profit, more freedom and more choices—starting now.
