Saved Hours on Modeling
I stopped building the financials by hand and had a clean working model in place fast. It saved me about 12 hours and gave me a file I could actually send out without reworking every tab.

The cash-flow section made it much easier to see runway and likely shortfalls. I could spot a funding gap weeks earlier and walk into a lender call with clearer numbers.
My pricing, cost, and growth assumptions were all over the place before this. Now everything sits in one place, and I cut my planning time by half because the model finally made sense.
This editable five-year workbook models revenue from customer acquisition agents, active cohorts, billable hours and hourly rates, and then combines entries with financial statements.
Use the book to plan how marketing spending creates customers, how long service groups stay active, and how their billable hours turn into service revenue.
The editable operational assumptions are supported by monthly calculation engine, which introduces the business plan to financial statements, scenario comparisons and management reports.
The model acquires customers from marketing and CAC spending, retains them by service cohort, converts active customers into billing hours, and then applies hourly rates.
New customers equals marketing expenses divided by customer acquisition costs.
Divide new customers into service levels and hold each cohort for a certain lifetime.
Add new customers to every acquired cohort that stays in a designated lifetime.
Multiplication of active customers by average billable hours per active customer each month.
Multiplication of billable hours by hourly rates and total revenue at individual levels and months.
Article revenue assumptions links marketing, customer acquisition, service allocation, lifetime of the cohort, billable hours and hourly rates with forecast revenue.
Revenue assumptions
The COGS and operating expenses section separates the assumptions regarding the cost of providing services from the variable and fixed operating expenses for the forecast period.

The scenario analysis compares the low, basic and high levels for revenue, gross margin, contribution margin and EBITDA over the forecast period of five years.
Analysis of scenarios
The basic panel combines model setting, scenario management, KPIs headings, core finance, a mix of revenue, cash flow, profitability and return on investment charts.
Dashboard
