Know yourself before becoming an owner. We built three diagnostic tools at Earned Equity and opened them up for anyone on Searchfunder to use. No pitch on the other side. 1. **DISC Operator Profile** — 15 questions, maps your operating style to business types where operators with your profile tend to succeed. ( https://earned-equity.com/tools/operator-personality-quiz ) 2. **Operator Readiness Score** — 10 questions. Honest diagnostic. Outputs a tier (Ready Now / 6–12 Months / Build First) with specific action items. ( https://earned-equity.com/tools/am-i-ready-to-buy-a-business ) 3. **Business Type Fit Finder** — Based on your background, recommends 3 specific business sectors with a rationale for each. ( https://earned-equity.com/tools/what-business-should-i-buy ) All three are at (https://earned-equity.com/owner-operators.html#tools). Free to use. If you take one and have feedback, I'm genuinely listening — we're still iterating.

This is great. I've heard good things about DISC, we're implementing it in our process
