I feel bad watching your videos for free. Not only the content but also the production is so high value. Thanks for doing what you do!

[@vedantgala289]

Well you can "join" and not feel bad for watching for free!

[@aekwav]

Just follow their sales funnel 👍

A good financial model transcends the traditional spreadsheet and numbers, it answers the crucial questions in your business and it can help predict how well your brand will do in a certain time frame. Amazing video and explanation, man!

[@marvinfok65]

Very good and realistic info about startup financial model! No big talks, no building sand castle in the air, just cold hard facts!

[@giuseppe.manzone]

I have used your financial model as a base to build mine and I will do a video very soon about that. Of course I'll ensure to mention you guys because it has been very useful!

[@sbradyw99]

Nooo! Please update your model so result cells are shaded and input variables are not shaded. The black and blue convention is hard for most people and impossible for mildly color blind people like me. Please consult WGAG guidelines to choose a shading color with sufficient contrast. PS> This channel is awesome.

This is amazing This is the kind of things you come across and use if you are MBA( I’m assuming) But then it is soooo important Thank you for this video. That makes so much sense- we’ve been looking at business modeling wrong the entire time

[@ClastrCloudGaming]

Your videos bring such value to the startup community. I hope they bring value to Slidebean as well, because if they do - you will keep making them :D

[@karthikranga]

This is going to be an interesting video for me! Right when I am working on pitch deck. Your video on TAM was quite interesting. I had to redo my TAM slide after I discussed with Caleb from BWM. And your video helped a lot! Thank you! 🙌

[@Paulgizmo]

Same hete

[@AchmasSmati]

This came in the perfect time, I was doing this exactly backwards

[@slidebean]

Glad we could help!

[@hermanjean-baptiste3378]

I wish I had a business idea to buy their services. I feel that this channel provides good info on how to start a company. Some of these other business channels try to sell you something.

[@shenogood]

Nice content! Keep it going. I'm looking to start my production company and I found so many useful information to rewire my brain for the hub. Thanks a lot and good luck on your venture!

[@slidebean]

‘Rewire my brain’ > music to my ears.

[@WalterQueiroz-rj4kk]

Thank you, Caya and team!

[@Re_viseIt]

This is everything I need. @Caya, any chance you’re willing to share a link to the Miro board?

[@loicgregoire3058]

each new video surge me to create my own start up :o

[@alirezariazi5325]

Wowww Woooww that was very helpful. Thanks👍👍👍👍

[@RebeccaLawson-nt9lr]

I have a stupid question. If I’m asking an investor, for example $250,000 for 10%, should my financial model include this investment from the investor or do they want to see the financial model without the investment to see what the company will do on its own without the investment?

[@GutDelights]

This is very helpful!

[@aimanfaiz2160]

this channel is underrated...

[@irsyadramthan]

Just a question (not sure if you guys see older comments), but where would CAPEX fall into the diagram (how does it connect to the other components)?

[@nicotinefreedom6365]

What do you use to look at your competitors traffic?

[@janlaenge]

Super helpful video, Caia!

[@global_Jesus]

[@KatieHilborn]

Why isn't ROI, Yield, or IRR included in your Financial Model spread sheets?

[@radkhan5233]

[@samphelps856]

Very useful thanks Caya 🙂👍🏼

[@yakruthikreddysama7055]

Thank you

[@skyeleesk]

Not entirely true about the point that organic traffic doesn't correlate with marketing expenses. It seems you're painting a picture to investors that organic traffic are free, which is not true to begin with

[@slidebean]

It’s definitely not free- but there is no direct way (cause > effect) to connect a marketing budget to an amount of organic traffic. SEO might be very efficient or very slow, but I’d consider it irresponsible to assume it’s scale just because more money is thrown in. - Caya

[@TerresDeRepos]

super content but geek video ! to many mouvement music etc.. I'm so tired at the end of the video... please : make it simply ! The content is very good the form is to much ! For me

[@thomasmaxwell1328]

Not everything revolves around "SaaS" or start-up businesses. Modeling bigger more important companies like Delta Airlines, ExxonMobil, or Goldman Sachs is what you need to focus on.

Get a haircut

[@chumaggots666]

think l'll buy it

[@slidebean]

You should budget assuming the investment comes
