What you get, free

Real documents, not a number on a screen.

Real deliverables, not a number on a screen. The more you share, the deeper the documents go.

Document One

Your PubScore Report

Your whole business on one page: score out of 100, your tier, and all 8 categories graded. Then the parts nobody else gives you free:

  • A ten-lane asset map: which lanes you run, which you own but parked, which you have not opened
  • A revenue table listing what every asset you own could earn beyond what it earns today
  • Your three biggest gaps, with action steps you can start this week, with or without us
Arrives as a PDF, minutes after you finish.
Document Two

Your Valuation Snapshot

An indicative dollar range for your publishing business, built the way buyers value these assets: a multiple of monthly earnings, 24x to 36x on our marketplace.

  • What is driving your number up
  • What is holding it down
  • How the range moves when you close the holes the report found
Arrives as a PDF, minutes after you finish.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is the PubScore free, with no catch?

Yes. Both documents arrive free, with no card and no call required. There is nothing to cancel later.

Do I need exact numbers?

No. Everything is answered in ranges. Real figures are optional, and sharing them opens the asset-level valuation.

What happens to my numbers?

They are used to build your report, never shared and never published. The privacy policy covers the detail.

What if I only run one Facebook page?

Then the census is shorter. Only the branches you own open up, and the report meets you at your stage.

Will someone call me?

No. The report arrives by email. What you do next is up to you.

Can I retake it?

Yes, every 90 days. Your score and your valuation range refresh together.

Ten minutes. Your score, your gaps, your number.

Close the holes, retake it in 90 days, and watch both numbers move.
