Growth Readiness Assessment

This Assessment Could Be Right for You If…

• You’re growing, but it feels harder than it should.
• Your leadership team isn’t always aligned on priorities.
• Revenue has plateaued or become inconsistent.
• You know there are opportunities, but you’re not sure where to focus.
• Your business has outgrown the way it currently operates.
• You’re preparing for your next phase of growth.
• You’d value an experienced, independent commercial perspective.
• You want practical recommendations, not another generic business report.

This assessment is ideal for:

• Founder-led businesses looking to build a stronger commercial foundation.
• Executive and leadership teams seeking greater alignment and clearer strategic direction.
• Growing SMEs preparing for their next stage of growth.
• Commercial leaders wanting an independent perspective on performance and capability.
• Businesses experiencing stalled, inconsistent or plateauing growth.
• Organisations navigating change, expansion or business transformation.
• Leadership teams looking to identify opportunities, reduce risk and improve commercial execution.

Every business is different, which is why no two assessments are the same. Rather than following a generic checklist, we tailor the assessment to your business, your goals and the challenges you’re navigating.

Depending on your objectives, we’ll typically explore areas such as:

Commercial Strategy – Is your strategy aligned to where you want the business to go?
Leadership Capability – Are your leaders equipped to drive performance and manage growth?
Commercial Performance – How effectively are your sales, customer success and commercial functions performing?
Customer Relationships – Are you creating long-term value for your customers and identifying opportunities for growth?
Team Capability – Does your team have the skills, behaviours and accountability to execute consistently?
Go-to-Market Execution – Is your market approach aligned, repeatable and delivering results?
Operational Effectiveness – Are your systems, processes and ways of working supporting or slowing growth?
Growth Opportunities – Where are the greatest opportunities to improve performance and accelerate sustainable growth?

Every Growth Readiness Assessment is tailored to your business, but a typical engagement includes:

• Discovery Session – Understand your business, objectives and the challenges you’re currently navigating.
• Executive Interviews – One-on-one conversations with key leaders and stakeholders to gain multiple perspectives.
• Business & Commercial Review – An assessment of the strategies, capabilities and commercial drivers influencing business performance.
• Strategic Analysis – Identification of strengths, barriers, risks and opportunities for sustainable growth.
• Growth Readiness Report – A comprehensive report summarising key findings, insights and recommendations.
• Executive Debrief – A facilitated presentation of the findings with an opportunity to discuss priorities and next steps.
• Practical Growth Roadmap – A prioritised action plan designed to strengthen capability and accelerate commercial growth.

Many clients choose to continue working with Killer Consulting through commercial advisory, leadership development or team capability programs to support the implementation of the recommendations. Others use the assessment as a standalone strategic planning exercise.

Is this a consulting engagement or a training program?

The Growth Readiness Assessment is a strategic advisory engagement. Its purpose is to provide an independent commercial perspective, identify growth opportunities and help your leadership team make better-informed decisions.

How much does the assessment cost?

Every assessment is scoped according to the size, complexity and objectives of your business. Following an initial conversation, we’ll prepare a fixed-fee proposal outlining the recommended approach.

What makes the Growth Readiness Assessment different?

Your Growth Readiness Assessment™ is designed to deliver practical outcomes. We combine commercial experience, structured thinking and proprietary frameworks to provide clear priorities, actionable recommendations and a roadmap your business can confidently implement.

How do I know if my business is ready for growth?

There are often clear indicators that a business is ready for its next stage of growth or that something is holding it back. Common signs include inconsistent revenue, leadership misalignment, unclear priorities, operational bottlenecks or a desire to scale without a clear plan. A Growth Readiness Assessment™ helps identify these opportunities and provides a practical roadmap to strengthen capability and support sustainable commercial growth.
