We extract the business from the owner. In 4 weeks we document your pricing, systems, and operations, built around how your shop actually works. Over the next 8 weeks we prove it runs without you. Then you choose: sell it, hand it down, or just step back.
61 indicators across 6 areas, weighted by what actually kills deals. About 10 minutes on the site, and no email required to see your score. Your score, your three biggest deal-killers, and what to fix first. Not a grade, a map.
Paid, and credited toward the build. I'm on site with you: shadowing jobs, reviewing the books, interviewing your people. You get a detailed report mapping every weak point in fix order. Then you choose: have us build it, or take the report and do it yourself.
4 weeks. We document what only you know, fix how pricing and money get tracked, and build the systems your business actually needs, around your actual workflow. Then 8 weeks of live operation while we correct whatever reality reveals.
You step back for 30 days and the business runs. If it doesn't, we keep working at no extra cost until it does. Then transition support through the actual handoff: a sale, a family member, an employee, or a reduced role for you.
Five core pieces, built from your actual quotes, jobs, and workflow, plus automation wherever it genuinely helps. The goal isn't a folder of documents. It's a business that keeps functioning the day you're not the one running it.
This isn't priced like a small software subscription, because it isn't one. The deliverable is making your day-to-day presence optional: a business that runs without you, whatever you decide to do with it next. Pricing is discussed directly, once we understand what your business actually needs, not posted as a number on a page.
The build runs 4 weeks, followed by 8 weeks of live operation. Then the 30-day step-away test: the business runs without you, or we keep working at no extra cost, and final payment isn't due until the test passes.
The guarantee covers operational independence: the business runs without you. Legal and licensing long-leads (a second license holder, entity changes) are tracked to completion separately and don't count against the test.

Perpetual Order LLC ("Perpetual Order," "we," "us," or "our") helps retiring trade-business owners build the documentation and systems their business needs to operate without them. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information in connection with the Handoff Test, the Succession System Build, and related services.
From prospective and current clients:
We do not sell personal or business information. Documentation and operational knowledge captured during a build remain the property of the client (see Terms of Service, Section 7). We share information only with service providers necessary to deliver our services, or when required by law or court order.
Assessment and build documentation is retained for the duration of the engagement and any active retainer/credit balance. Upon request or engagement close, clients may request an export or deletion of their data, subject to standard business recordkeeping requirements. Account and billing information is retained for 3 years following engagement close for legal and tax compliance.
You have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of your information. Contact us at admin@perpetualorder.com to exercise these rights.

These Terms of Service govern your use of Perpetual Order LLC's services. By engaging our services, you agree to these Terms in full. Specific project scope, deliverables, and any additional terms are confirmed in a signed engagement agreement before the Succession System Build begins.
Perpetual Order offers a free Succession Readiness Assessment ("Handoff Test"); a paid Deep-Dive Diagnostic; and the Succession System Build: a documentation- and systems-building engagement (SOPs, job & pricing tracking, lead capture, client onboarding, and tool consolidation as needed) intended to reduce a trade business's dependence on its owner, plus transition support through the client's actual handoff.
The Deep-Dive Diagnostic is a paid, standalone service consisting of on-site observation, review of business records, and interviews with Client's staff, delivered as a written report identifying operational weak points in recommended fix order. If Client proceeds with a Succession System Build, the Deep-Dive Diagnostic fee is credited toward the build fee. Client may instead keep the report and implement its recommendations independently. The guarantee described in Section 5 applies only to Succession System Builds performed by Perpetual Order, and does not apply to work Client implements independently from the report.
The Handoff Test is a free readiness assessment with no purchase or build commitment required. Results are directional and based on information the client provides; they are not a guarantee of business valuation or saleability.
Pricing for the Succession System Build, available payment plan options, and the standby retainer are provided directly during the sales conversation and documented in full in Client's signed engagement agreement before work begins. This website does not publish specific pricing.
The Succession System Build consists of an intensive build period of approximately 4 weeks, followed by approximately 8 weeks of live operation during which Provider monitors the business and corrects the systems as needed. At the end of the live-operation period, a step-away test is conducted during which Client refrains from day-to-day involvement in the business for 30 consecutive days, so the business's operational independence from Client can be verified. If the business does not operate without Client's involvement during the test, Provider will continue work at no additional charge until it does. The final installment of Client's chosen payment plan is not due until the step-away test is passed.
The guarantee covers operational independence only: the business's ability to operate without Client's day-to-day involvement. Legal, licensing, and structural items with long lead times outside Provider's control (including, for example, qualifying a second license holder or changing the business entity) are tracked to completion separately, are not conditions of the step-away test, and do not count against it.
Payment schedules are set by the payment plan selected under Section 4. Failure to remit a scheduled payment may result in a pause of build work until payment is received, as detailed in the client's signed engagement agreement.
All documentation, SOPs, and business-specific materials produced during a Succession System Build are the property of the client upon full payment. Perpetual Order retains ownership of its own methodology, templates, and any reusable tooling used to deliver the engagement.
Either party may cancel an in-progress engagement per the terms of the signed engagement agreement. Amounts already paid for completed work are non-refundable outside of the guarantee described in Section 5; amounts paid for work not yet performed are refunded on a pro-rata basis.
Provider's total liability shall not exceed fees paid in the 12 months preceding the claim. Provider is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages, or for a specific sale price, valuation, or business outcome beyond the guarantee described in Section 5.
Any dispute shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration under AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules, with a single arbitrator in Ada County, Idaho, or remotely by mutual agreement. Class action waiver applies.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Idaho. Venue: Ada County, Idaho.
