  • Support and maintenance contracts

COGS Structure

  • Customer success and implementation labor
  • Professional services delivery costs

  • Third-party integration and API costs

Unit Economics to Model

  • CAC by deal size and customer segment
  • Sales cycle length and deal velocity
  • Average Contract Value (ACV) trend
  • Net Revenue Retention by customer segment
  • Magic number (net new ARR / S&M spend)

Key Model Assumptions

Series B models require a formal AOP (Annual Operating Plan) for the current year with monthly actuals-vs-plan tracking. Investors will ask for monthly actuals in the data room and will model variance trends.

  • Sales rep ramp timeline (months to full quota)
  • Average quota attainment rate
  • Deal size distribution by segment
  • Pipeline coverage ratio to hit booking targets

Funding Scenarios

Include a capital allocation memo that justifies the Series B use of proceeds. Show how each dollar maps to specific growth levers and the expected return on that investment.
