Four Growth Archetypes
Where do you fall?
Your total out of 35 sets the range. In the top range, your weakest area decides which side of the line you land on.
0-14
The Heroic Grinder
Growth depends on effort and a few key people. The plan is a number, not a system.
"We'll make it up in Q4."
15-24
The Plateaued Scaler
Real process and a respectable record. The pieces were never built to multiply together.
"We're doing everything right. It just isn't moving."
25–35 · one weak area
The Bottlenecked Grower
A strong system with one area left behind. That one area caps everything else.
"One piece keeps holding us back."
25–35 · no weak areas
The Growth Engineer
Growth runs as a managed system: designed, measured against a standard, run on a cadence.
"We know which driver moved."
What the Scan Measures
Four areas. The weakest one sets your ceiling.
Each question asks you to pick the statement closest to how your company runs today, so you score what happens, not what you intend.
Q1-Q2 · 10 points
RevGrowth Architecture
Is growth designed, or does it accumulate?
How your growth plan is built, and how deliberately you manage revenue from existing customers.
Q3-Q4 · 10 points
RevGrowth Benchmark
Is growth measured against a standard, or against last year?
What you compare your growth strategy against, and how close your revenue forecasts land.
Q5-Q6 · 10 points
RevGrowth Engine
Does growth run on a system, or on people?
What happens if your top salespeople leave, and how the plan runs between annual cycles.
Q7 · 5 points
Enterprise Value
Does growth build equity, or only revenue?
How much of your growth a buyer or PE partner would pay for.
The Evidence
Built on 200+ benchmarked companies.
The Ceiling Scan is built on RevGrowth Architecture, the standard behind the RevGrowth Benchmark. Across 212 mid-market companies scored against it, annual growth rises in step with the score.
The top quartile grows almost seven times faster than the bottom quartile, often in the same markets.
The scan is a short self-assessment. It shows where to look. The full RevGrowth Benchmark measures it with your own data during a RevGrowth Installation.

Questions about the Ceiling Scan
How long does it take?
About three minutes. Seven questions, one per screen, and your result appears as soon as you finish.
Who should take it?
The CEO, CFO, or executive who owns growth at a mid-market industrial or B2B company. PE partners can take it for a portfolio company.
Is this the RevGrowth Benchmark?
No. The Benchmark scores 25 Drivers against 212 companies using your own data, inside a RevGrowth Installation. The Ceiling Scan is a seven-question self-assessment built on the same standard. It shows where to look.
Do I need to pull any data?
No. Each question asks you to choose the statement closest to how your company operates today. You answer from what you already know.
What happens to my answers?
Your answers and contact details come to RevGrowth OS. If you book a conversation, it starts from your result instead of from scratch.
How is it different from the RevGrowth Score?
The RevGrowth Score is longer, about ten minutes and 16 scored questions, and places you against peers. The Ceiling Scan is the faster first step, and its results page links to the RevGrowth Score.
Three minutes to see what is capping your growth.
Seven questions. Four areas. One ceiling, named.
