How the Snapshot works
The Local Business Growth Snapshot is a free, 10-question self-assessment for owners and leaders of local businesses and mission-driven organizations. It looks at visibility, reputation, messaging, and how people take the next step.
Each answer earns 0, 1, or 2 points. The results show an overall score and category percentages; the suggested starting point also considers which answers indicate more direct friction.
Results reflect your answers, not an independent review of your business or organization. Use them as a starting point for further investigation, not a full audit or proof of what causes growth or engagement.
