A business health score is only useful if it is rigorous, repeatable, and actionable. This paper documents a methodology for scoring a business across core pillars — Money, Marketing, Operations, Customers, and Delivery — explaining how raw signals become sub-scores, how sub-scores roll up, and how the model identifies a single focus area rather than an overwhelming list.
