What is TrueWorth?

A free, confidential assessment that scores your business across the five pillars sophisticated buyers care about most. Answer 25 questions and receive a personalised buyer-perspective report — specific to your answers, not generic advice.

Who is it for?

Designed for UK business owners who are thinking about selling in the next one to five years — or who simply want to understand what their business looks like to the people who buy companies like theirs. Whether you’re actively planning an exit or just curious, this is your starting point.

Why trust it?

TrueWorth is built by professionals who’ve evaluated businesses from the buy side of UK transactions. The assessment uses real buyer evaluation frameworks — the same criteria that determine whether a deal moves forward or falls apart. No generic scores, no false comfort.
