Acquire Customers
New customers equal marketing spend divided by customer acquisition cost.
It is an editable five-year Excel workbook that links customer acquisition, active-client cohorts, billable hours, pricing, costs, scenarios, and financial statements.
Plan how marketing, customer retention, service mix, billable workload, and hourly pricing translate into revenue, expenses, cash flow, and financial performance over time.
Editable operating assumptions feed the monthly calculation structure, while the model rolls results into annual views, financial statements, scenario comparisons, and management reporting.
Marketing spend and CAC create new customers, cohorts remain active by lifetime, and billable hours multiplied by hourly rates produce monthly service revenue.
New customers equal marketing spend divided by customer acquisition cost.
New customers are allocated across the defined service or client tiers.
Starting customers and unexpired cohorts determine active customers by tier each month.
Active customers multiply by average monthly billable hours for each tier.
Billable hours multiply by hourly rates, then revenue is summed across tiers and months.
The Revenue worksheet organizes launch timing, marketing budgets, CAC, customer allocation, lifetime, active customers, billable hours, and hourly rates by service line.

This template kept one bad cell from spreading through the whole file, which saved me from hours of cleanup. I could check the model faster and move on with confidence.
I could see margin and break-even points right away instead of digging through a messy sheet. It cut my planning time by about half and made my client discussion much clearer.
Pricing, costs, and growth were all in one place, so I stopped juggling scattered notes and half-finished tabs. That alone saved me a full afternoon and made updates much easier.
