Marketing budget scenario calculator

Change the assumptions to explore a planning scenario. The starting values are illustrative, not industry averages, budget recommendations or a forecast. Your entries stay in this page and are not sent by the calculator.

Use revenue expected within the planning year, not lifetime value.
Use an explicit assumption or your own measured rate.

The arithmetic assumes the existing revenue base stays constant and additional revenue comes from new customers. It excludes churn, timing differences, changes in pricing, profit margins and service capacity. Spend does not cause or guarantee the revenue goal.

How the calculation works

  • Annual spend = current annual revenue × chosen spend percentage.
  • Additional revenue goal = current annual revenue × chosen growth percentage.
  • New customers = additional revenue goal ÷ first-year revenue per new customer, rounded up.
  • Monthly inquiries = new customers ÷ 12 ÷ assumed inquiry-to-customer rate, rounded up.

Decide channel allocation separately using verified demand, actual costs and staff capacity. Before paying for more traffic, follow the website inquiry checklist to check whether requests reach the right person.
