Financial Modeling

A financial model that actually drives decisions.

Most e-commerce models are static spreadsheets no one updates. Ours connect P&L, balance sheet and cash so changing one assumption (CAC, growth rate, AOV) instantly shows the impact across the whole business. Pairs with our Financial Model service page for the flagship engagement.

Who it's for

  • Founders planning a raise who need an investor-grade model in 4–6 weeks.
  • Brands setting annual budget with monthly bottom-up granularity.
  • Operators evaluating a big bet — new product line, new market, new channel.

Symptoms you need this

If more than two of these sound familiar, this is the service to start with.

Your existing model hasn't been updated in months.
Nobody can explain how the revenue line is calculated.
You can't answer 'what happens if we hire 3 more people?' in under a day.
Investors asked for a downside scenario and you didn't have one.
Runway numbers change every time somebody opens the file.
