Free commercial diagnostics

Know where you are stuck before you spend a penny fixing it.

Short answer: Addoli offers four free diagnostics for founder-led B2B businesses turning over £1m to £15m. Each one takes under 10 minutes, scores a specific commercial constraint and sends you a written PDF report showing what to fix first. They were built by Tom Wood, founder of Addoli, from the frameworks he uses in client work.

✓ Free   ✓ Under 10 minutes   ✓ Written report you can keep   ✓ No sales call required

Which diagnostic should you take?

Start with the symptom you recognise.

Growth has stalled and you are not sure why

The 7 Plateaus

You keep losing deals on price, or buyers cannot tell you apart from competitors

The Proposition Architect

→

You are working hard but not sure you are fixing the right thing

5Rs Commercial Diagnosis

→

The business cannot run without you

5Rs Commercial Infrastructure

→

If none of these fits, start with the 7 Plateaus. The stage it identifies tells you which constraint to test next.

Thank you for your inspiration and support, your input was so valuable. From your Proposition Architect report, I have been able to narrow my proposition and focus on where I make a clear difference. You have a great way of phrasing things so they really land.
