SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Sales proposals often contain numbers without formulas, sources, or hypotheses, making them impossible to defend in negotiation. This Skill standardizes the economics behind every figure in a proposal so each number carries a formula, a source or explicit placeholder, and a status. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Pricing and discount math: Computes table-equivalent value, effective discount in percent and currency, cost of the discount, and breakeven months against the minimum guaranteed contract term. - Client payback models: Builds the two classic payback accounts (recovered revenue and saved hours) with explicit placeholders when client data is missing, plus a sensitivity ruler showing how much improvement justifies the price. - Barter, equity ladder, and valuation: Calculates barter equilibrium ratios, implied post-money valuation per participation tier, and EBITDA-multiple valuation ranges with source, band, and sensitivity analysis. - Use Case: Before sending a retainer proposal, use this Skill to compute the effective discount, the breakeven month versus the notice period, and the client payback account, then produce a numbers sheet where every figure has an ID, formula, and hypothesis for QA cross-checking. ## Quick Start Use the sales-pricing-payback skill to calculate the effective discount, breakeven, and client payback for my proposal with a monthly fee of R$ 15,000 and a table-equivalent value of R$ 22,000.

Frequently Asked Questions about sales-pricing-payback

FAQPage Schema
How do I calculate client payback for a sales proposal?▼

Use two standard accounts: revenue recovered (opportunities per month times conversion-rate delta times average ticket times client margin) and hours saved (tasks per month times automation percentage times average time times hourly cost). Divide the monthly fee by either gain to get payback in months.

How to calculate breakeven on a discounted retainer contract?▼

Compute initial investment as implementation hours times hourly cost plus unbilled one-time deliverables, then divide by monthly margin (fee minus operating cost). If breakeven exceeds the minimum guaranteed term, the discount needs a counterparty such as a minimum stay or proportional reimbursement.

What valuation multiple should a service business use?▼

Service businesses with recurring revenue typically use EBITDA multiples from M&A comparables, commonly a 6-8x range with a cited source. Revenue multiples like 10-24x apply only to SaaS capital rounds, not service companies.

Can I use estimated market data when client numbers are missing?▼

No. Missing client data must remain an explicit placeholder like R$ ____ with the hypothesis written beside it, plus the exact questions needed to fill it. Never substitute unsourced market estimates into a proposal.

How do I structure a barter deal financially?▼

Sum the table value of your recurring and one-time deliverables, sum the table value of their placements, and compute the equilibrium ratio monthly and accumulated. Require measurable return tracking before the first counter-delivery and a rebalancing clause at an intermediate milestone.
