Sell-Side Readiness Scorecards

---

Preparing your fire protection and life safety business for a successful sale starts long before you find the right buyer. The Sell-Side Readiness Scorecard, developed by John Mackey, helps business owners evaluate the key factors that influence business value, buyer interest, and transaction readiness. Through 12 targeted questions covering critical areas such as financial performance, recurring revenue, leadership, owner dependency, and transition planning, you'll gain a clearer understanding of your company's strengths and the gaps that could impact a future sale. Whether you're considering selling in the next year or simply exploring your long-term options, this assessment provides a practical starting point for protecting the value you've built and preparing for a successful transition.
