Pitch & GrowthThe $1M-$10M Scaling Diagnostic
Fewer than 1% of companies successfully scale beyond $10M.
These 30 questions are designed to help you diagnose the bottlenecks preventing you from scaling.
What got you to $1M will typically not get you to $10M.
You need a sounding board to see clearly where you’re succeeding, where you’re stalling and where you need to focus most attention to break the constraints holding you back.
This diagnostic gives you that, scored across five key areas central to building a business successfully: strategy, leadership, team, execution and narrative.
On completion, we’ll send you a report assessing whether you have laid the foundations, are actively building, or are scale-ready, with recommendations on where you should focus next.
Takes about seven minutes.
If that’s not you yet, the questions will still be useful - but the recommendations may not be calibrated to your stage.
Sample results - the format, not your answers
Your results: strengths, weaknesses and gaps.
“You’ve built real substance - and real gaps. Both are visible from here.”
You know your ICP, you can name what makes you different, and your business model broadly explains how you make money - the pieces are there. They haven’t been tested. The plan hasn’t been pressure-tested against outside evidence, the funnel maths behind your targets hasn’t been run stage by stage, and your differentiation claim would hold up in a friendly conversation but not necessarily a skeptical one. Put your focus on stress-testing what you already have rather than rebuilding it: run the funnel maths stage by stage, pressure-test the plan against evidence instead of instinct, and get your differentiation claim in front of someone who’ll push back on it properly.
Every founder gets all 5 areas scored and written up like this, plus a clear next step. Yours will be built entirely from your own answers.
