Strategic Growth Capacity Simulator

Most businesses ask "can we grow?" A CFO asks "can we afford to grow?" This tool tests a growth plan against your cash, models the 24-month cash and EBITDA impact, and tells you whether you can fund it internally or need a facility.

Revenue vs investment

Revenue run-rate & cash invested

EBITDA trend

24-month run-rate

A 24-month monthly model: revenue ramps to the growth target over the first year; new-hire cost is derived from your current cost-per-employee and phases in over six months; technology and office spend hit cash in the first quarter; marketing is spent across year one. "Fundable internally" means cash stays positive on existing reserves alone. Payback is total investment divided by the steady-state monthly EBITDA uplift. Directional estimates, not financial advice.
