Model Highlights
The SaaS Sales model is an easy and customizable tool for those who wish to best streamline their business’ revenue and cost. The model has been built for a five-year period and uses monthly data to generate vital business insights. It breaks down the business into two streams i.e. Software Subscription and Professional services. It further segregates the packages offered by pricing tiers. It further categorizes contracts based on duration into monthly and yearly. Additionally, the model calculates vital metrics such as Conversion Rate for each of the three plans, Customer Acquisition Costs for Paid Sign-ups for each of the product pricing tiers, ARPU and so on. These metrics are critical in determining the utility of any investment and whether it can generate more income than expenditure in the long run.
What is Inside the Model
Quickly build a financial model / business plan by using our pre-built models with commonly used business drivers and Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Dashboard
Forecast your Revenue Precisely
The model looks at revenue from a monthly perspective in terms of Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR), which is an indicator of whether you are losing larger or smaller accounts. It breaks down the business into two streams i.e. Software subscriptions and Professional services. The MRR, which is calculated over both streams, is computed using pricing assumptions of three different plan offerings i.e. Essential, Pro and Enterprise. Understanding the drivers of revenue forecasting and their implications is of great importance. These drivers are: customer numbers and pricing assumptions.
Lastly, the model calculates Net MRR Churn which is obtained by deducting revenue lost due to downgrades in plans chosen by customers (Downgrade MRR) and Churn MRR from the revenue gained from upgrades in plans chosen by customers (Upgrade MRR).
Estimate Cost of doing Business
Correctly estimating the cost of doing business can be critical to avoid running out of cash and cost overruns. The model approaches the cost calculations in a simplified manner by assuming a gross profit margin - this can be based on existing data or benchmark it against industry data. This is used to calculate the gross profit which is then subtracted from the revenue forecast to get the cost of doing business. The SaaS Model considers marketing expenses, service costs, support costs and Dev Ops. These cost variables can vary depending on your business's needs.
A good place to start is by considering what you need and then adding more variables to the model if necessary!
