Clearer Models, Less Guesswork
This template helped me get past the technical Excel stuff and actually build a model I could use. I saved about 6 hours and had something clean enough to review with my team.

Pricing, costs, and growth were all over the place before. This model brought everything into one place, so I could tighten the numbers and book a planning meeting the same day.
Starting from scratch always slowed me down. With the template already laid out, I got from empty sheet to a working forecast in under an hour and finally had a place to start.
It's an editable five-year Excel and Google Sheets model that combines customer cohorts, billable hours, costs, scenarios, and integrated financial statements.
Use the book to plan how marketing spending becomes an active customer, billing hours, revenue, spending, cash flow, and financial results over time.
Changes in start-up time, initial customers, marketing budget and seasonality, CAC, service allocation, customer lifetime, billable hours, hourly rates, employee employment, costs and capital commitments.
The model acquires customers through marketing spending, retains cohorts by service level, converts active customers into billable hours, and then applies hourly rates.
Monthly marketing spending divided by CAC determines new customers.
New customers are allocated according to the level of service and retained for a specific period of use of each level.
Start-up clients and acquired companies define an active client base.
Active customers are multiplied by average hours of billing per customer each month.
The time invoiced shall be multiplied by hourly rates, with revenue combined at individual levels and months.
In the Revenue view, you can edit launch time, marketing budget and seasonality, CAC, service allocation, customer retention period, billable hours and hourly rates.
Revenue
COGS & OPEX separates the percentages of direct costs, variable costs and fixed operating expenses within the monthly forecast.
COGS & OPEX
The scenario compares the results of revenue low, basic and high levels, gross margin, contribution margin and EBITDA over five years.
Scenarios
The Dashboard combines scenario controls, key metrics, core finance, a mix of revenue, cash flow, profitability and return on investment in one management view.
Dashboard
It is suitable for enterprises that earn mainly from retained client cohorts and billable hours; substantially different revenue structures may require individual modelling.
The indicator is the starting point for planning, not a guarantee of performance.
The Financial Model Laboratory may build or adapt the model where the revenue logic, operational schedules or reporting requirements differ from that model.

Revenue come from an active cohort of clients multiplied by hours per client and the current hourly rate. New customers are equal to marketing expenditures divided by CAC and are kept at utilization level.
You can change the launch date, initial customers, annual marketing budget, monthly seasonality, CAC, service allocation, customer retention period, billable hours and hourly rates.
Alternative cases for revenue, gross margin, contribution margin, EBITDA and related financial results for forecast can be compared.
The workbook contains the income statement, the cash flow report, the balance sheet, the dashboard, the scenarios, the summary, the settlement, the ROIC, the charts, the KPIs, the assessment and the supporting reports.
