Published price band
Mode's affiliate FAQ gives indicative offers by full-time US staff: 20 to 49 = $200K to $500K, 50 to 149 = $400K to $900K, 150+ = $800K+, with eligible companies under 20 quoted individually. Mode calls these 'indicative ranges, not offers' (Mode affiliate FAQ).
Mode names four drivers: how many people work in the company's systems (today and at its peak), years of records, number of connected systems, and volume. Records that show outcomes, such as deals won or lost and jobs completed, raise the number (Mode affiliate FAQ).
