• Provides templates for exit surveys that identify why customers are leaving
• Creates offer strategies based on your pricing, plans, and customer segments

Financial Due Diligence

• Creates a tailored document request list covering financials, revenue, costs, cash, debt, and tax
• Generates key analytical questions about revenue quality, margins, cash conversion, and liabilities
• Provides a red flags checklist highlighting common warning signs like customer concentration or aggressive accounting
• Outputs a summary assessment template to rate revenue quality, margin sustainability, cash generation, and overall risk
