Business Moat Assessment

How Strong Is Your Business's Competitive Position?

You’ve spent decades building this business. But could a buyer see the same value you do?

Most owners are surprised when they sit down with an advisor and realize that the advantages they know are real — the loyal customers, the hard-won reputation, the team that keeps everything running — aren’t documented in a way that holds up in a transaction. A buyer can’t pay for what they can’t verify.

Our business moat assessment takes three minutes to complete . It evaluates your business across the five dimensions of competitive advantage that buyers and valuators examine most closely:

  • Cost advantage and pricing power
  • Customer loyalty and switching costs
  • Network effects and market position
  • Brand strength, licenses, and intangible assets
  • Efficient scale and owner independence

When you’re done, our advisory team reviews your responses personally and follows up with a frank picture of where your business stands — what’s working in your favour, what’s fragile, and where the most meaningful preparation work lies.

It’s free, confidential, and carries no obligation. If you’re thinking seriously about an eventual exit — whether that’s one year from now or five — this is a useful place to start.

(If you’d prefer to speak directly before completing the form, that’s equally welcome. You can reach us at our contact page or by calling our office.)
