WHERE YOU STAND

Q6. Which best describes you today? *

I own a business doing seven figures or more in annual revenue

I own an established business that has plateaued — revenue steady, growth stalled

I own a business that is still early or under $500K in revenue

I've owned or operated a business before, but don't currently

I've never owned a business, but I'm an operator/executive ready to

Q7. Do you currently own a business, and does it run without your daily involvement? *

Yes — it largely runs without me day to day

Yes — but it still depends heavily on me

I've owned before, not currently

Not yet — that's what I'm here to change

A few sentences. Enough for us to understand where you're starting from. Held in confidence.

Q8. In broad strokes, tell us about your business — what it does, roughly what it earns, and how long you've run it. *

WHERE YOU INTEND TO GO

Q9. What are you trying to build, and why now? *

Q10. If nothing changes over the next five years, what concerns you most about where you'll end up? *

This helps us understand fit — FourAM Advisors works with established owners growing what they've built. Held in strict confidence.

Q11. What is your business's approximate annual revenue? *

SBA acquisition loans generally require roughly 10% of the purchase price as an equity injection, alongside credit and experience review. Held in strict confidence.

Q11b. Acquiring your first business is typically financed through an SBA-backed loan, which requires a down payment and lender qualification. Which best describes your position? *

I've been pre-qualified, or have spoken with an SBA lender

I believe I would qualify — strong credit, and liquid capital available for a down payment

I'm not certain whether I would qualify

I likely would not qualify today

READINESS & FIT

Q16. A FourAM Advisors engagement is a five-year, high-commitment relationship requiring real execution between sessions. Does that match what you're looking for? *

Yes — that's exactly what I want

I think so, and I want to understand it better

I'm not sure yet

Q17. When are you looking to begin? *

I'm ready now

Within the next few months

Exploring for the future
