I don’t have advanced Excel skills, and this model kept me from getting stuck on formulas. I was able to finish the forecast and send it to my partner the same day.
Model review
What is the financial model of biometric security systems?
This editable Excel workbook and Google Sheets models five years of biometric security operations using client cohorts, billable hours, costs, scenarios and financial statements.
Plan how customer acquisition, the mix of services, customer life expectancy, billable hours and hourly rates translate over time into revenue and financial results.
Edit launch time, initial customers, marketing budget, seasonality, CAC, level allocation, customer retention period, hours and rates; the combined reports update these operational assumptions.
Constructed to provide services on a cohort basisThe structure of revenue is based on active customer cohorts and invoiced hours of service rather than a simple forecast of unit sales.

How does the model calculate revenue from biometric protection?
The model attracts customers from marketing and CAC spending, maintains group groups, converts active customers into billable hours, and applies hourly rates.
01
Get customers
Monthly marketing spending divided by CAC determines new customers, and seasonality shapes the acquisition time.
02
Layers
New customers are assigned to different service levels and retained for a specific period of use at each level.
03
Follow active clients
Start-up clients connect with each still active client cohort to identify active clients.
04
counting hours
The level of active customers is multiplied by the average billing hours per active customer each month.
05
Calculation of revenue
Monthly billable hours at the level are multiplied by hourly rates and then the revenue is summed up at individual levels and months.
The revenue view organizes the acquisition, the allocation of customers, the lifetime, the number of active customers, the billable hours and the introduction of prices that feed the calculation of the revenue cohort.
Revenue
Worksheet revenue shows the acquisition, the allocation of the cohort, the active customers, the billable hours and the price entry.
02 / COGS & OPEX
How are operating expenses organised?
The COGS and OPEX outlook separates direct costs, Variable Costs and Fixed operating expenses so that cost assumptions flow into margin and cash planning.
COGS & OPEX
Worksheet COGS & OPEX presents direct costs, variable costs and recurring fixed costs.
03 / Scenarios
What can be compared in different scenarios?
The scenario compares the low, basic and high levels for revenue, gross margin, contribution margin and EBITDA over the forecast period of five years.
Scenarios
The Worksheet scenarios show the trajectories of low, basic and high level revenue, margin and EBITDA.
04 / Dashboard
What Does the Dashboard Bring Together?

Is the financial model of biometric security systems right for you?
It is suitable for cohorts-based service providers using customer acquisitions and billable hours; structural work to order may correspond substantially to different logical revenue or reporting needs.
Model ready
It fits perfectly
Your revenue starts with the marketing expenses, the CAC and the customer cohort acquired.
You're distinguishing clients at different levels of service with specific lifetimes.
You're taking advantage of active customers through paid hours and hourly rates.
You want a five-year statement plus a comparison of low, basic and high scenarios.
Order structure
Think about the model
Your basic revenue depends on units, subscriptions, spreads, or another unrelated mechanic.
The client's activity cannot be represented by the assignment of cohort life and levels.
You need operational schedules that are vastly different from the structure of workbook.
You need reporting based on requirements that go beyond the current model reporting structure.
The indicator is the starting point for planning, not a guarantee of performance.
