The hire and what they will sell
Use your own numbers: what you pay, and what your current team actually closes.
Months before they sell at full pace.
Per month, if the client pays monthly.

The results are only as good as the numbers you put in. Use your own close rate and deal value, not hopeful ones.

How this works
- Deals a month at full pace = leads a month × close rate. Each deal brings the deal value every month for the months a client pays (1 for a one-time sale).
- Ramp-up: in each ramp month they close a growing share of the full pace (with 3 ramp months: 25%, 50%, 75%), then 100%. This is an assumption; change the ramp months to match what you have seen.
- Each month: gross profit on the revenue received − incentive on that revenue − salary (CTC). Payback is the first month the running total reaches zero or more, ramp included. Break-even deals = CTC ÷ (lifetime deal value × (margin % − incentive %)).
- The results are only as good as the numbers you put in. Nothing here is an average or a benchmark, and nothing is saved unless you send it to yourself.
