This is a five-year workbook for modelling consulting cohorts, billing hours, costs, scenarios and integrated financial statements.
Plan how marketing customer acquisition, combination of services, customer viability, hours paid and hourly pricing translates into consulting revenue and financial results.
Editable operational assumptions are the source of monthly and annual forecasts, while scenarios and reporting opinions help control the flow of change through the model.
The model takes over customers from marketing and CAC, retains cohorts according to service level, converts active customers to paid hours, and then applies hourly rates.
Calculation of new customers each month as marketing expenditure divided by the cost of purchasing the customer.
Spread new customers in different categories of services and keep each cohort for the duration of its life.
Add customers starting to all cohorts of customers that remain during their lifetime.
Multiply active customers by average hours paid for active customers each month.
Multiple hourly working time for each category of services and then sum up revenue in different categories and months.
Income take sheet links purchase marketing, allocation of services, customer life periods, hours payable and hourly prices to the engine consulting revenues.
