You did a great job showing all the ways third-party audits are valuable. I like how you pointed out that they help build trust having someone outside the company check things makes everyone feel more confident and shows the company is honest. You also made a good point about reducing risks; finding problems early can save a company a lot of trouble and money later. I thought it was smart to mention that feedback from auditors can help companies get better, not just follow rules. In industries with lots of regulations, outside advice can help a company succeed instead of just getting by. Overall, you clearly explained how third-party audits protect companies and help them grow.
