Far fewer can tell you their runway if churn ticks up 2% next quarter.

Our latest guide breaks down how to build a SaaS business financial plan that actually holds up under investor scrutiny in 7 easy steps:

→ Define your pricing model and project MRR/ARR realistically
→ Nail down CAC and churn assumptions (London vs Bristol/Southwest benchmarks differ more than you'd think)
→ Build three-statement projections — P&L, balance sheet, cash flow
→ Calculate the metrics investors actually care about: LTV:CAC, gross margin, Rule of 40
→ Stress-test with best/base/worst-case scenarios before you need to

Plus, the UK-specific costs that catch founders out — NI contributions, pension auto-enrolment, and the £90k VAT threshold.
