Clarity for Every Assumption
I finally got the pricing, costs, and growth inputs into one place, so the assumptions stopped feeling scattered. It saved me a full afternoon and made the forecast much easier to review.
I finally got the pricing, costs, and growth inputs into one place, so the assumptions stopped feeling scattered. It saved me a full afternoon and made the forecast much easier to review.
One broken formula used to make me second-guess the whole sheet, but this template kept the structure clean and easy to follow. I caught issues faster and booked a planning call without rebuilding the model.
I could see cash needs, shortfalls, and runway much more clearly, which took a lot of guesswork out of planning. That made my funding conversation easier and saved me hours of manual checking.
This is a five-year Excel and Google Sheets workbook that converts drivers to work in a fish shop to extracts, scenarios and outputs on a dashboard.
Use the workbook to plan, like visitor traffic, buyer conversion, repeat purchases, custom units, product range, and price categories shape sales and financial results.
Over the whole forecast period, identifiable assumptions flow through the model into revenue, costs, cash flow, profitability, balance sheet positions and management reporting.
The model converts shop visitors to buyers, builds active cohorts of recurring customers, calculates orders and units, allocates product range and applies category prices.
The new buyer equals the visitor's shop multiplied by the visitor's exchange rate on the buyer.
The participation of new buyers is repeated and remains active for the duration of its established life.
Orders combine the first purchases with active repeat customers times the monthly frequency of orders.
Orders become sold units and then the common pool of units follows the sales category mix.
The units of the categories are valued by period and aggregated by category and month.
The revenue card organizes visitors' movement, conversion, repetition of behaviour, order size, product range and category prices, which are the source of sales forecasts.
REVENUE
