Investor-Ready Financial Model Report

I’m preparing to pitch a new multi-vendor website and my potential investor has asked for a robust financial model accompanied by a concise written report. The platform will allow vendors to sell virtually anything—physical goods, digital downloads, or even services—so the model must be flexible enough to cover multiple revenue streams and fee structures.

Here’s what I need from you:

• A dynamic, fully-linked Excel (or Google Sheets) financial model that projects revenue, cost of goods sold, operating expenses, and marketing spend over at least three years.
• Clear burn-rate calculations that highlight monthly cash requirements and how long current or hypothetical funding will last.
• A break-even analysis pin-pointing the month we cross into profitability, with the assumptions driving that milestone easy to adjust.
• Sensitivity or scenario tabs that let me toggle key variables (take-rate, customer acquisition cost, vendor churn, etc.) and instantly see the impact.
• A short written report (Word or PDF) that walks an investor through the model: market size rationale, growth assumptions, unit economics, and the story behind each number. Use straightforward language—no accounting jargon—to keep the focus on viability and scalability.
• A brief summary slide (optional but appreciated) suitable for dropping into my pitch deck.

The business doesn’t yet have firm technical requirements like vendor dashboards or advanced search, so keep the model feature-agnostic; I’ll supply any additional data you need on traffic forecasts, pricing tiers, or commission structures.

Accuracy, transparency of assumptions, and ease of use are paramount. If you’ve built SaaS or marketplace models before, that’s a big plus. Let me know how quickly you can turn this around and feel free to share a sample or two of previous work so I can gauge fit.
