Customer Acquisition
Monthly marketing spend divided by CAC determines new customers.
This editable five-year workbook models client acquisition, active customer cohorts, billable hours, service pricing, and monthly or annual financial statements and scenarios.
Use it to plan how marketing spend, customer acquisition cost, service mix, client retention, billable workload, and hourly rates shape a Scope 3 reporting practice.
Editable assumptions flow through revenue, operating costs, staffing, statements, scenario comparisons, and management views so changes can be reviewed across the model.
Revenue starts with marketing-driven customer acquisition, retains each service-tier cohort for its lifetime, converts active clients into billable hours, and applies the matching hourly rate.
Monthly marketing spend divided by CAC determines new customers.
New customers are allocated across the configured service tiers.
Starting customers and retained cohorts remain active for each tier's lifetime.
Active customers are multiplied by monthly billable hours per customer.
Billable hours are multiplied by hourly rates and summed across tiers and months.
The Revenue Assumptions view brings together marketing budgets, CAC, customer allocation, cohort lifetime, billable hours, and hourly rates used by the client-cohort engine.

This template pulled our statements, charts, and assumptions into one place, so I stopped chasing files across folders. It cut our monthly reporting prep by 6 hours and made updates much easier to share.
I’m not strong with advanced Excel, and this model kept the hard parts out of the way with a clear layout. I had a working Scope 3 forecast in one afternoon instead of spending days trying to figure out formulas.
Building emissions financials by hand was taking forever, and this template gave me a much faster starting point. I finished our first draft in under 2 hours and moved the meeting forward the same day.
