Before you build your service-business forecast.
What types of businesses can use this model?
The model is designed for cleaning and janitorial services. Its worker-based revenue and expense logic also works for a home health care agency.
How many workers can I include?
You can model up to 50 service workers, with inputs for each worker's start date, hours per month, and billable rate.
Does it include all three financial statements?
Yes. The five-year model includes monthly and annual Income Statements, Balance Sheets, and Cash Flow Statements connected to the assumptions, plus a cap table and capital expenditure schedule with depreciation.
Can I include debt financing?
Yes. Debt service flows into projected cash flow, and the investor/business-owner cash-flow allocation logic accounts for financing assumptions.
Which model should I review for recurring contracts or fixed-fee jobs?
Review the separate Advanced Cleaning Service Financial Model featured above. That model is built around recurring contracts and fixed-fee jobs; this page's model builds the forecast around service workers, hours, and billable rates.
