The powerful and easy-to-use financial planning tool can be used by entrepreneurs, start-ups, investors and consultants, whether you are already running a business, or making plans to start a new one.

Setting up an integrated financial model can be a challenging task, especially for entrepreneurs with only minimal previous experience in this area and/or without a financial background. Excel-Financial-Model guides you step-by-step through all important assumptions and automatically recalculates your complete forecasts and metrics with each new input. This allows you and others to quickly test various scenarios and see the overall impact.

Advanced users who need even more planning and reporting flexibility can enhance and modify all sheets as desired, thanks to the transparent, flexible and open approach of EFM.

Tailored solutions for your business model

As every business is unique there cannot be a "one-size-fits-all" model template. It goes without saying that a manufacturing or distribution business model, for example, has different requirements and KPIs than an online subscription business model.

To accommodate the various types of business models, Excel-Financial-Model is available in two different versions, for classic economy (EFM-CE) and digital economy (EFM-DE) business models. All assumptions and calculations as well as key operational and financial metrics are tailored to the specific type of business. In addition, each version offers various generic inputs and provides numerous spare rows to handle your individual requirements.

It contains assumptions and customizations especially for companies producing and/or selling physical products or offering services.
