CROCHET ECOMMERCE REVENUE ENGINE
How Does the Crochet Business Financial Model Calculate Revenue?
Revenue starts with customers acquired through marketing spend and CAC, adds repeat-customer orders, converts orders to units, allocates product mix, and applies category prices.
01
Acquire Customers
Calculate customers separately by channel as marketing spend ÷ CAC, apply seasonality, then add online and offline customers.
02
Build Repeat Cohorts
A percentage of new customers becomes repeat buyers, and each cohort stays active for its stated lifetime.
03
Calculate Orders
Monthly orders equal new-customer first purchases plus active repeat customers × average repeat orders per month.
04
Allocate Units
Units sold equal total orders × average units per order, then sales mix allocates units across categories.
05
Calculate Revenue
Category revenue equals allocated units × category price, then categories and months are summed into total ecommerce revenue.
CORE FORMULARevenue = Allocated category units × Category price

PRODUCT FIT

CUSTOM STRUCTURE
Consider Custom Modeling
Your revenue depends on subscriptions, marketplaces, commissions, wholesale contracts, or other different mechanics.
You need customer cohorts, channels, or product economics calculated differently from the supplied ecommerce structure.
Your operating schedules require specialized capacity, production, inventory, or project timing beyond the current setup.
You need a different reporting structure, additional schedules, or outputs built around specific requirements.
The template is a planning starting point, not a guarantee of performance.
