What's inside

Seven Systems. Thirty-Five Questions.

Each section covers a core area of your operations. Score each question Yes, Partly, or No. The total shows you where to focus first.

01
CRM and Lead Management

Are leads captured automatically? Does every lead have a follow-up sequence? Can you pull a pipeline report in under two minutes and trust the data?

5 Questions · 10 Points
02
Automation and Workflows

Can you list every active automation? Has each one been tested end-to-end? Do you have monitoring in place so you know when something fails?

5 Questions · 10 Points

SOPs and Documentation

Are your core processes documented and accessible? Could a new hire complete your most important recurring tasks using documentation alone?

5 Questions · 10 Points
04

Does every active task have an owner and a due date? Can you see the status of all active work without asking anyone?

5 Questions · 10 Points

FAQ

Common Questions.

What is a business systems audit checklist?

A structured set of questions that evaluates the health of your core business operations across seven systems. Each section scores out of 10. The total tells you where your biggest gaps are and what to fix first.

How long does it take?

Under 20 minutes for most business owners. The questions are yes/no/partly so there is no lengthy analysis required while you are working through it.

Which system should I audit first?

Start with whichever system is causing the most visible pain right now. If leads are falling through, start with CRM. If your team keeps asking the same questions, start with SOPs. The checklist will confirm your instinct and surface gaps you might not have noticed.

What do I do after I complete the checklist?

Three options depending on your situation and what you find. Fix it yourself using the AI Ops Audit (free) or the AI Systems Playbook ($27). Train your team with the Team Operations Toolkit ($297). Or bring us in with a Systems Assessment (starting at $2,500) to do the work for you.
