The Founder Readiness Checklist

Is your business ready to be built?

Before you pour a foundation, you survey the land. The Founder Readiness Checklist is a one-page diagnostic that shows you the gaps in your business before they cost you — and tells you exactly which of the seven phases you're standing on right now.

Inside:

• The Founder Readiness Assessment — rate yourself across six dimensions: skills, talents, experience, industry knowledge, administrative readiness, and access to support
• The seven-phase build checklist — Blueprints, Infrastructure, Foundation, Utilities, Reinforcement, Protection, and Inspection, in order
• Find your phase — check the last box you can honestly complete, and start there instead of at the beginning or the end

A low score isn't a stop sign — it's a hiring decision, a learning goal, or a partnership waiting to happen. This free tool is the first step of The Administrative Process.

Build the business before you scale it.
