It is an editable five-year Excel model that predicts the monthly and annual revenue of doula cohort clients, with scenarios, financial statements and management reports.
Use the workbook to plan how marketing, customer acquisition, mix of services, customer retention, billable hours, prices, costs and employment shape financial results.
The editable assumptions are driven by revenue and operational schedules, which are made up of forecast reports, scenario comparisons and dashboard reports.
The model attracts customers from marketing and CAC spending, tracks withholding cohorts by service level, and then uses billable hours and hourly rates.
The monthly marketing expenditure allocated to CAC determines the number of new customers.
New customers are assigned to different service levels and retained for each specified lifetime.
Start-up clients and still-active client cohorts identify active clients by level.
Active customers multiply the average billing hours per active customer each month.
The invoicing time is multiplied by the hourly rate and the monthly revenue is aggregated at each service level.
Worksheet revenue replaces marketing, CAC, level allocation, customer usage time, billable hours and hourly rates with forecast revenue of customers.
