I wasn’t sure what investors expected, but this template showed the right structure right away. I used it to prepare our numbers and booked a meeting the same week.

This is an editable five-year Excel and Google Sheets forecast combining customer acquisition, repeated purchases, product mix, price, scenarios and basic financial statements.
Use your workbook to plan expenditure on acquisition, maintenance, order volume, mix of products, prices, operating costs, employment, financing and forecast financial results.
Editable assumptions drive the monthly engine calculation, storage of channels, repeat clients cohorts, frequency of orders, units on order, mix of products, price, costs and financing in financial results.
The model collects online and offline customers from marketing expenses and CAC, builds recurring cohorts, calculates orders and units, allocates a category mix and then the sale price of the category.
Online and offline marketing costs divided into CAC channels define new customers.
The percentage of new customers becomes recurring buyers for a specified period of customer life.
First purchase orders plus active repeat customers times monthly repetition frequency shall determine the total number of orders.
Total orders times average units per order specify units and then a mixture of sales allocates categories.
The categories allocated are multiplied by the price of the category and then the revenue is aggregated in the categories and months.
The spreadsheet of revenue assumptions combines marketing budgets of the channel, CAC, behaviour of multiple customers, frequency of order, units on order, mix of categories and prices of products with sales.
