Disclaimer
The plain-language version of the things people most often misread on a site like this. It sits alongside our terms, not instead of them.
No guarantee of results
We do not promise any particular outcome, revenue figure, growth rate, or improvement. We never have and we will not start. What a business achieves depends on its market, its people, its capital, its timing, and the decisions its owner makes, almost all of which sit outside our control.
Where we describe what happened for a client, that is what happened for that client. It is not typical, not a projection, and not a promise about you.
About the figures on this site
References to capital raised, structured or advised, to companies founded and exited, and to exit multiples, describe Nick Ayala's career across multiple businesses and ventures over roughly twenty years. They are biographical background. They are not results produced for Platform One clients, and they should not be read as an indication of what an engagement with us will produce for you.
The assessment is self-scored
The P1 Index reflects your own answers about your own business. It has one structural limitation, which we state on the result itself: it is one person's view. It is a prompt for a conversation, not a professional opinion, and it should not be the sole basis for any material business decision.
Not professional advice
Nothing on this site, in the assessment, or in our emails is legal, tax, accounting, insurance, or investment advice. Platform One is not an investment adviser and provides no investment advice, securities recommendations, or offers of any security. Nick Ayala's Series 65 and 63 registrations relate to other activity and are disclosed as background only. Consult your own qualified professionals before acting.
Forward-looking statements
Where we describe what we expect to find, what a business could achieve, or what usually happens at a given revenue stage, those are opinions and observations. They are not facts about the future.
External links
We link to third-party sites, including retailers selling Nick's books. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or their privacy practices.
