A one-time onboarding investment, followed by a simple monthly membership.
Example: A service-based business generating $6M annually pays approximately $6,000. The minimum applies below $3.5M in revenue; the maximum applies above $12M.
For most owners, this is the first time your business has ever been truly valued: the same rigorous assessment a buyer, lender, or private-equity firm runs before committing capital. You finish onboarding knowing exactly what your company is worth today, what’s holding that number back, and how to grow it with intention over the next three years. It’s built once, and everything that follows builds on it.
Membership begins once onboarding is complete and your data systems are connected and active. Continued membership requires that connected data systems remain active and current.
Onboarding tells you what your business is worth today. Membership keeps that number alive: your Enterprise Value is recalculated every month, tracked as a share price, and benchmarked against your peers, so you always know whether you’re building value or leaking it, and where to act. It’s the difference between a valuation that sits in a drawer and one that works for you every day.
Yes. Leadership teams can tie a portion of management or key-employee compensation to Enterprise Value movement or Health Score performance — functionally, a private phantom-equity mechanism where the Green Leaf Index serves as the ultimate scoreboard. Because every member starts at $100 and the Index updates monthly against a 29-variable model, it produces a defensible, non-gameable metric to align leadership teams, GMs, and key employees with the outcome that matters most: the long-term value of the business. Members structure these plans independently with their own counsel; GLI provides the data feed.
Yes. The platform is designed to support conversations with lenders, SBA partners, and equipment finance providers by producing Green Leaf Command Center reports and quarterly Enterprise Value movement documentation that can be shared externally. Because the valuation is built on a disciplined, transaction-calibrated methodology rather than operator-generated projections, lenders and underwriters can treat it as independent third-party analysis. The platform does not replace lender due diligence. It produces the kind of clean, defensible, investor-grade documentation that shortens it.
Membership begins once onboarding is complete and your data systems are connected and active. Onboarding typically takes 45–60 days.
The onboarding fee is 0.1% of your trailing twelve months revenue, with a minimum of $3,500 and a maximum of $12,000. A $6M business pays approximately $6,000.
No. GLI sits above your existing tools — accounting, ERP, payroll, operations — and pulls from them. It does not replace them. Your team keeps working the systems they already know.
Neither exactly. GLI is an intelligence platform. It is not operations software, and it is not a consulting engagement. It is a continuous view of your Enterprise Value and market position.
No. GLI is built to support the peer groups, mastermind cohorts, and coaches you already rely on — by providing accurate, timely, business-wide numbers that bring clarity to the conversations you are already having. Better inputs, sharper discussions, faster decisions.
Private. You see your own stock price and how you are tracking against the Green Leaf Index, never another member's name or financials. Members select a three-letter ticker at onboarding, so participation stays anonymous. The Index is a scoreboard, not a leaderboard.
Service-based businesses generating $3M–$30M in annual revenue, owned and operated by leadership teams who treat their business as a long-term asset, not just a paycheck. Whether you are running a regional operation or a multi-market platform, GLI is built for owners who want to know what their business is actually worth — and what is driving that number up or down.
No. GLI is a neutral, third-party intelligence platform with no commissions to earn and no agenda to push. Your membership fee is the only commercial relationship.
GLI is built for service-based businesses generating $3M to $30M in annual revenue, across three categories: outdoor property services, mechanical and structural trades, and property construction and improvement. The same valuation framework, Quality Score, and Risk Score apply whether you run a lawn care company, an HVAC operation, or a remodeling firm. They measure the variables that move Enterprise Value in any service business, so whether you operate a single service line or several, GLI tracks what your company is worth and what is driving that number.
