Financial Projections Guide
How to Create Financial Projections for Your Startup
Financial projections translate your business plan into numbers that investors can evaluate. Start with realistic revenue assumptions based on your market size (TAM/SAM/SOM), pricing model, and customer acquisition strategy. Build bottom-up projections from unit economics rather than top-down guesses. Include monthly detail for year 1, then quarterly for years 2-3, and annual for years 4-5. Always model multiple scenarios to show you understand the risks and opportunities.
What Investors Look For in Financial Projections
Investors evaluate projections for internal consistency, realistic assumptions, and understanding of unit economics. Key metrics they scrutinize include LTV:CAC ratio (should be 3:1+), gross margins (60%+ for SaaS), burn rate and runway, and the path to profitability. They want to see you understand your business drivers and can defend your assumptions. Projections that are too conservative or too aggressive both raise red flags.
Common Financial Projection Mistakes
The most common mistakes include assuming hockey-stick growth without justification, underestimating costs (especially hiring), ignoring seasonality, and not modeling cash flow separately from revenue. Other pitfalls: forgetting to increase costs with scale, not accounting for payment terms and collection delays, and failing to plan for contingencies. Always validate assumptions against industry benchmarks.
