Method: yes scores a question in full, partly scores half and no scores nothing. Each is weighted from one to three by how much the business relies on that document, and the score is the weighted share out of a hundred. Unanswered questions are left out.
The problem
Every small business needs documented processes for hiring, training, opening and closing, handling complaints, safety, and the specific work of its trade. Almost none have them.
Consultants charge a lot to write them. Free templates online are generic single documents that do not add up to a system, so owners collect a folder of half-useful files and nothing changes.
Who it is for
Small business owners
Owners of dental practices, gyms, restaurants, cleaning companies and agencies who need documented processes and will never write them from scratch.
Franchisees and multi-location businesses
Franchisees and businesses with more than one location, with licensing available at volume.
