Funding readiness
Most businesses still chase capital with a pitch — that’s why they’re exhausted. The ones who win get chased, because six measurable things bring funders to them.
Those six are buildable. We build them.

For owners preparing for a funding conversation, or responding to a readiness gap identified by a provider. A structured assessment combines your business context with financial and operating evidence.

Discuss my business assessment ↗The WithNova Growth System™ · six business signals

Your self-reported starting point
Turn my score into an action plan ↗This is a conversation starter, not a credit score, lender assessment or prediction of approval. The six items have equal weight; score = rounded total × 100 ÷ 60. Your records and the provider’s criteria determine the next diagnostic step. A full business assessment is a separate, scoped engagement using supporting evidence; it is not calculated by this six-question self-check.
The work after the score
Bring the provider’s feedback, your business objective and the available financial and operating evidence. Identify what can be addressed and what requires a different route.
Scope the relevant planning, financial-control, customer, people or systems work. Agree its cost, owner and acceptance criteria before implementation.
Assemble the agreed business case and evidence. Any introduction is subject to a suitable relationship and the provider’s own eligibility and decision process.
Funder or programme sponsor?
Connect readiness assessment, post-funding monitoring and targeted business improvement. Agree which gaps the programme will address and what evidence returns to the sponsor or provider.
