Execution Diligence for LOI-Stage Search Deals

The majority of searchers we speak to budget $25K–$75K for QoE to validate historical earnings.
Few budget anything to validate the growth story and execution risk, even though most post-close challenges are execution based, not accounting failures.
We run a 4-week GTM + execution diligence lab alongside QoE to:
• Pressure-test the growth story
• Surface GTM and execution risk
• De-risk mis-hires and sequencing errors
• Produce a concrete 90-day value creation roadmap and execution and hiring plan
It’s designed specifically for LOI-stage search deals.
If you’re under LOI or entering confirmatory diligence and want to de-risk post-close execution, happy to share how this works. redacted
