About this model

List each role and its pay, add when new people start, and see the true cost month by month and by team.

How to run it

  1. Export your orders (Shopify, Square, Stripe, a POS or a visit list) with a customer, date and amount.
  2. Upload it. Line-item exports are rolled into orders by order number.
  3. Read the cohort table and the revenue-per-customer curve, add margin and acquisition cost if you have them, and download the workbook.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the true cost higher than pay?

An employee also costs payroll taxes and benefits, and hiring has its own costs. This adds them all up.

Can I plan future hires?

Yes. Choose the month someone starts and the cost lands from that month on.
