New Signups
Marketing spend divided by CAC creates signups, split between free trials and direct-paid starts.
It is an editable five-year Excel workbook for time tracking software, modeling subscription cohorts, trial conversion, churn, plan pricing, and linked financial outputs.
Use the workbook to plan how marketing spend, CAC, trial conversion, plan mix, subscriber retention, pricing, usage, and setup fees shape recurring revenue and cash needs.
Editable assumptions feed a 60-month forecast, Low/Base/High scenario comparisons, the income statement, cash flow statement, balance sheet, and dashboard.
The model acquires signups from marketing spend and CAC, converts trials after a lag, allocates paid activations by plan, tracks churn, and recognizes monthly revenue.
Marketing spend divided by CAC creates signups, split between free trials and direct-paid starts.
After the trial lag, converted trial cohorts combine with current direct-paid activations.
Paid activations are allocated by plan, then active subscribers roll forward after churn.
Active subscribers generate tier MRR, with enabled usage, setup, box, and add-on revenue layered in.
Monthly recognized revenue sums all enabled layers; ARR remains a run-rate KPI only.
The Revenue Assumptions sheet organizes acquisition, trial conversion, paid plan mix, subscriber retention, pricing, setup fees, and usage inputs that drive revenue.

I’d avoided financial models because the formulas felt too technical, but this template broke it down in a way I could follow. I saved about 6 hours just getting the first version built.
The profitability section finally showed me where the business would break even and which assumptions mattered most. I booked a planning call the same day because the numbers were clear enough to discuss with my partner.
I used to guess at cash timing, but this model made runway and shortfalls easy to track month by month. It helped me spot a funding gap three months earlier than I expected.
