SOS Self-Assessment

One of four areas is costing you more than the rest. This tells you which.

A free self-assessment for founder-led agencies and consultancies. You rate your own operation across four areas. You get a score against each, the one gap costing you most, and three things to do about it in order.

Twenty-three questions / About seven minutes / No call required

What it measures

No.	Area	What it looks at
01	Leadership & Founder Leverage	How much of the business still routes through you, and what happens when you step away.
02	Delivery & Capacity	Whether client work gets delivered the same way twice, and whether you know who has room.
03	Financial Visibility & Commercial Model	What you can see: margin by client and service line, and how pricing gets set.
04	Systems, Data & AI Leverage	Whether your technology is doing real work, or whether people are working around it.

What you get at the end

A score out of 100, and a score against each of the four areas.
With the band each one falls in, from foundational gaps through to strongly aligned.
The one gap costing you most, named.
Written against your scores and your size, not a generic reading. If your profile is genuinely even, the report says so rather than inventing a problem.
Three things to do about it, in order.
Drawn from your three lowest-scoring answers. Specific enough to start on without us.

Answer the way you'd answer a peer who already knows. A generous self-rating produces a useless report.

Written for the founder or owner. Answer as yourself.

Who is asking

A decade building and scaling two agencies. Three years since, doing it fractionally.

The assessment is the same diagnostic we run at the start of a paid engagement, shortened to the parts you can answer yourself. See what the full version produced for five agencies.
