Running it, start to finish
- Describe the model's structure, its assumptions and their sources.
- Verify the integrity checks in section 1 by hand before trusting anything else.
- Present the break-even values rather than the base case.
What you get back
The output this produces, every time.
- Checks the three statements actually tie, and identifies what the balancing plug is.
- Ranks assumptions by sensitivity and names the one or two that carry the entire answer.
- Surfaces the implicit assumptions that never made it onto the assumptions tab.
Getting better results
Where this usually goes wrong, and how to avoid it.
- Describe the structure carefully. Tab names and how they feed each other matter more than the numbers for finding double-counting.
- Go straight to section 3. If the answer rests on two assumptions, that is where the work belongs — and it is usually not where the work has gone.
- Use the break-even numbers in the meeting. 'This works if churn stays below 4%' is a claim people can argue with. A base case invites agreement rather than scrutiny.
