What your sale-readiness scorecard looks like
This is an example of the sale-readiness scorecard you build yourself, graded across the same six areas a buyer checks. You score each area using the free checklist and Checkup. It is an example channel, not a done-for-you audit.
Sale-Readiness Scorecard
Example channel · evergreen how-to niche · June 2026
Close to buyer-ready. The money and niche are strong. Owner dependency is the one thing to fix before listing, and the plan below shows how.
How you score against the buyer's checks, area by area
Evergreen niche with steady demand, and a format you can show repeats, not one viral hit.
Twelve months of revenue you can back with exports, and honest profit after every cost.
Healthy audience, but check traffic-source concentration and confirm clean account standing.
Licensed music and footage with clear ownership; confirm contractor agreements assign the work to you.
If the owner does everything with no SOPs, this is the first area to document and delegate.
A safe verification plan and a data room ready, with contracts and liabilities disclosed up front.
Estimated value range
~18× to 28× monthly profit
Rough educational estimate only. Not an appraisal, advice, or a guaranteed sale price. Verify your own numbers.
Scored, not guessed
Every area gets a number and a reason, the way a buyer grades it.
Each gap names its fix
No vague advice. The report points to the exact step that turns it green.
Built from real exits
The scoring comes from channels we actually prepared and sold.
