01Customer cohorts, hours and revenueOperating assumptions

Customer cohorts, hours and revenue

Scenario purpose: The workbook example described here converts marketing and customer acquisition into active cohorts, then multiplies customer-billable hours by hourly rates across service levels.

Inputs

  • Marketing spend
  • Customer acquisition cost
  • Customer lifetime
  • Billable hours per customer
  • Hourly rate by level

Outputs

  • Active customers
  • Billable hours
  • Monthly service revenue

Scope and limitations

  • The StartFigures public case uses a completed-job ticket, not the workbook's native hourly abstraction.
  • Map each job mix into billable hours and rates, then track nonbillable paid labor separately for staffing and capacity.
  • These worksheet descriptions explain the model example and its fit to this case. The online HTML preview does not verify the contents, calculation behavior or delivery of a current purchased file.
02Direct costs and overheadOperating assumptions

Direct costs and overhead

Scenario purpose: Separates job materials and variable operating costs from fixed vehicle, tool, insurance, marketing and administrative expenses.

Inputs

  • Materials
  • Payment fees
  • Route vehicle cost
  • Insurance
  • Software
  • Marketing

Outputs

  • Direct job costs
  • Gross margin
  • Operating expenses

Scope and limitations

  • Customer-reimbursed materials and markups must be modeled consistently.
  • Local insurance and vehicle costs require quotes.
03Payroll and technician planOperating assumptions

Payroll and technician plan

Scenario purpose: Schedules the paid working owner-manager, employee technician, compensation, start dates and employer costs.

Inputs

  • Roles
  • Headcount
  • Pay rates
  • Start dates
  • Payroll burden

Outputs

  • Monthly payroll
  • Headcount
  • Labor cost by period

Scope and limitations

  • BLS data exclude self-employed earnings and are national.
  • Travel, estimates, purchasing and callbacks must stay visible in paid labor capacity; only customer-billable portions belong in revenue hours.
04Capex, funding and cashOperating assumptions

Capex, funding and cash

Scenario purpose: Times the launch van, staged second vehicle, tool, launch and reserve uses and connects financing assumptions to cash flow.

Inputs

  • Opening uses
  • Replacement schedule
  • Funding sources
  • Debt terms
  • Minimum cash

Outputs

  • Sources and uses
  • Cash runway
  • Funding gap

Scope and limitations

  • The $135,000 case is not a vehicle or tool quote.
  • Tax and financing treatment need separate advice.
05Scenarios and break-evenOperating assumptions

Scenarios and break-even

Scenario purpose: Compares alternative hours, rates, costs and growth paths and calculates the revenue needed to cover fixed costs.

Inputs

  • Hourly rates
  • Customer-billable hours
  • Contribution margin
  • Fixed costs
  • Scenario multipliers

Outputs

  • Break-even revenue
  • Low/base/high results
  • Margin sensitivity

Scope and limitations

  • The public job-mix bridge must be reconciled to workbook hours.
  • Break-even excludes debt, tax and distributions.
06Statements and dashboardOperating assumptions

Statements and dashboard

Scenario purpose: Connects operational schedules to the income statement, cash flow, balance sheet, KPI and return views.

Inputs

  • Selected scenario
  • Financing
  • Tax assumptions
  • Reporting dates

Outputs

  • P&L
  • Cash flow
  • Balance sheet
  • Dashboard and ratios

Scope and limitations

  • Outputs inherit every scope, hour and price assumption.
  • A forecast does not grant a license or guarantee work.

Assumptions you can change

Use the Excel template to compare your financial assumptions. Review the selected version's input structure and outputs before adapting it. The online inputs and outputs on this page explain this website's price, volume, cost and opening-budget assumptions; they do not edit or verify a workbook. Range endpoints represent modeled scopes or sensitivities, not measured national averages.

Neither template establishes local demand, licensing compliance, financing approval or available owner cash.

Volume-only operating sensitivity

Volume-only sensitivity · revenue at mature volume · monthly USD
ScenarioDaily unitsMonthly revenueBreak-even revenueFirst operating break-even
Lower volume1$9,743$22,436Not reached
Base volume3$29,228$22,436Month 5
Higher volume5$48,713$22,436Month 2

Only completed jobs per field day across both workers changes. Retained sale per completed repair job: $450.00; 5 operating days per week. Fixed costs and contribution margin stay constant. “Not reached” means no operating break-even within the 10-month ramp. Annual revenue and EBITDA use the annual forecast. Break-even uses a separate monthly calculator sensitivity; it does not establish when the annual forecast covers its costs. Slider cases do not change the annual forecast or measure cash payback.

Sample outputs from the current case

Units mean completed jobs per field day across both workers. The ramp covers 10 months; operating break-even does not measure recovery of opening capital.

Compare the volume sensitivities ↑

Annual revenue and EBITDA use the annual forecast. Break-even uses a separate monthly calculator sensitivity; it does not establish when the annual forecast covers its costs. The website does not yet supply a complete funding, debt, tax and working-capital schedule for a cumulative cash-flow or payback chart. Read the full input basis and limitations.

Annual forecast and monthly operating reconciliation

Annual revenue and EBITDA use the annual forecast. Break-even uses a separate monthly calculator sensitivity; it does not establish when the annual forecast covers its costs.

Original inputs · annual USD · whole-dollar rounding tolerance $5
CheckAnnual forecastMonthly calculator base
Year 1 revenue$168,750$289,352
Year 1 operating result−$48,375$15,695
Year 2 revenue$253,125$350,730
Year 2 operating result$2,437$63,569
Year 3 revenue$337,500$350,730

Year 3 / full-volume annual revenue$337,500$350,730
Year 3 / full-volume annual operating result$53,250$63,569

Year 1 uses months 1–12, Year 2 months 13–24 and Year 3 months 25–36. Full-volume rows use mature monthly sales and operating result × 12. The calculator holds price, days, contribution and fixed costs constant; an annual price, staffing or cost change can explain a separate path. Sliders are separate sensitivities and do not overwrite this saved annual base. Neither column measures cash flow, owner distributions or payback. Agreement tests arithmetic, not demand or cash funding. Input basis.

Questions before buying

Can I buy or download this now?

Use the purchase button to buy the Handyman Service Financial Model for $109 through Shopify. This is a one-time price in USD before any applicable taxes.

What do the online previews show?

The online preview explains Customer cohorts, hours and revenue, Direct costs and overhead, Payroll and technician plan, Capex, funding and cash, Scenarios and break-even, Statements and dashboard using this website's illustrative case. It is separate from the downloadable Excel model.

Are these previews pages from a finished file?

The web previews are rendered from the website's case record. They illustrate planning concepts and calculations; they are not screenshots or a page-by-page inventory of the downloadable product.

What would I need to change for my business?

Review retained sale per completed repair job, completed jobs per field day across both workers, the operating schedule, opening budget and costs. These web previews do not edit a workbook. Test the website's price and volume assumptions in the business idea page's calculator.

Is the written business plan included?

The Financial Model is sold separately. The $168 Bundle adds the $59 Business Plan and $109 Financial Model for the same business to one cart, one of each.

Do the figures establish what my business will earn?

No. The figures describe an illustrative U.S. operating case, not measured industry averages or a prediction for your location. EBITDA is not owner cash, and operating break-even does not recover the opening investment. Check local costs, capacity and demand before using the assumptions.

Do the web previews reproduce the purchased files?

The online outlines, tables and worksheet illustrations use this website's scenario. They are not screenshots, a verified page count or a confirmed worksheet inventory of the purchased files. Check the selected product's specification before buying.

How are the files delivered?
