#1 tether: Process. How things get done lives mostly in your head, or in the heads of a few key people. So almost everything keeps routing back to you and there's a concentrated risk if they ever leave.

The Freedom Scorecard

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Freedom Scorecard?

A complimentary self-assessment for busy business owners who want to transition from operator to owner, so they can have more of the freedom they started their business for.

The scorecard was created by Lauren Goldstein, The Biz Doctor®.

You rate how true each statement is for your business today across four pillars: People, Process, Profit, and Leadership.

You get your Freedom Readiness Score out of 100, and your #1 bottleneck and tether: the thing keeping you in the weeds and working in your business instead of on it.

Who is it for?

Owners of established service businesses who feel like they're still the one everybody comes to, and like they can't take a vacation. It's built for businesses that run on know-how, such as financial services, law, wealth management, construction, and engineering. Usually the owner is one of the people with the most expertise, with a team of at least five.

What does it measure?

The four pillars that need to run like clockwork for a business owner to have a business that can run without them: People (your team and their roles), Process (how work gets done), Profit (your numbers and margins), and Leadership (who decides and leads). Each pillar is scored out of 25.

How long does it take?

Less than 5 minutes. One open question, then quick statements you rate from 1 to 5. If you get interrupted, your progress is saved on your device, so you can pick up where you left off.

What do I get when I complete the assessment?

Your Freedom Readiness Score right away. Then your #1 tether and your first next step, on your results page and by email, plus a short, practical exercise built to sever your #1 tether. Lauren calls it your freedom shortcut.

Is it really complimentary?

Yes. There's no cost. You get your results by email, plus occasional emails from Lauren at Golden Key Partnership to help you further your transition from operator to owner. You can unsubscribe anytime.
