This financial model is meticulously designed to analyze and forecast the financial performance of businesses that hire consultants to provide professional services to their clients. Whether your business operates as a management consulting firm, IT consultancy, legal services provider, or any other client-facing consultancy, this model offers a dynamic and flexible tool for strategic financial planning and decision-making.

The model provides a 5-year forecast horizon (60 months) and includes placeholders for up to 36 months of historical financial data. It accommodates multiple revenue streams, consultant compensation, and other expenses, ensuring a detailed breakdown of profitability. Graphs and dashboards are preconfigured for the forecast period but can be expanded to incorporate historical data for enhanced insights. This financial model is an invaluable resource for internal planning, client acquisition strategies, investor presentations, and loan applications.

3. S, G&A Expense Assumptions: Inputs for operating expenses, such as office rent, utilities, marketing, and administrative costs.
4. CapEx Assumptions: Inputs for office equipment, software, and other assets required for operations.
5. Working Capital Assumptions: Manage short-term liquidity with receivable/payable days and minimum cash reserves.
6. Staffing Assumptions: Define non-consulting roles (e.g., sales, marketing, administrative) with salaries and hiring timelines.
7. Financing Assumptions: Inputs for loan terms, interest rates, and fundraising.
