Assess the health of your business
Introduction
This interactive tool helps you analyse key areas of your business' finance and administration with the aim of avoiding failure. It can help you work out whether your business could be in trouble, and shows how external business advisers can provide help and expertise.
If you identify and tackle any problems early, you will markedly increase the chances of your business surviving and being a success.
This tool can only highlight where your business could encounter difficulties. Its conclusion should be used as an indicator only and should be discussed with professional business advisers.
If you would like to discuss the health of your business with a Business Gateway adviser please call the Business Gateway Helpline on Tel 0845 609 6611 to arrange an appointment.
