What is your management company worth?

Most owners find out during a negotiation, which is the worst possible time to learn it. This takes about two minutes and shows you the range a buyer would work from — and which parts of your business are moving it up or down.

How it works

Three steps, about two minutes

Nothing is saved and nothing is sent. The numbers stay in your browser.

Step one

Enter your numbers

Doors, revenue, operating costs, and what you pay yourself. If you know your top line but not the breakdown, enter total revenue and skip the detail.

Step two

Answer five questions

Your role day to day, client concentration, door loss, where revenue comes from, and how your systems are set up.

Step three

See what is moving it

An indicative range, plus a ranked breakdown of which factors are lifting your multiple and which are holding it back.

Why it matters

The number most owners carry in their head is too high

Not because they are wrong about their business, but because of three things that are easy to miss until a buyer points them out.

Your salary is not profit

If you run the company day to day, a buyer subtracts the cost of hiring someone to replace you before applying any multiple. On a small book that adjustment alone can move the value by more than half.

Scale sets the band

Door count is the single biggest determinant of the multiple range you sit in. Smaller books trade lower because a buyer is acquiring a job rather than an operation that runs itself.

Quality decides the rest

Two companies with identical profit can be worth very different amounts. Churn, client concentration, revenue mix, and whether the business runs on documented systems all move the multiple.

Almost everything on that list is fixable, and most of it moves within twelve to twenty-four months. The owners who get the best outcomes are the ones who knew their number early enough to do something about it.
