In Plain English
-
ValueBuilder is the diagnostic & coaching engine. It tells you where your business is strong or weak and maps out the value-boosting projects that will move the needle.
-
Business Power Tools is the execution toolkit. It gives you the actual documents, models, and dashboards that answer the buyer’s due-diligence checklist and prove you’ve already done the work.
Put another way: ValueBuilder shines a light on the gaps; Business Power Tools hands you the wrenches, screws, and blueprints to close them.
When to Choose Which (or Both)
-
Choose ValueBuilder when you need a quantified baseline, an advisor-guided plan, and accountability to improve key drivers over time.
-
Choose Business Power Tools when you must quickly assemble a bank-ready business plan, formalise SOPs, or create a compelling “business prospectus” that helps a broker justify top-dollar offers.
-
Use them together if you want the strategic insights and the tangible paperwork—ValueBuilder tells you what to fix; Business Power Tools gives you the tools to fix it.
One-Sentence Takeaway
ValueBuilder measures and coaches you toward a premium exit; Business Power Tools equips you with the buyer-ready documents that make that premium believable.
