Monthly Break-Even Calculator

Created by Joseph Puckett Consulting

The JPC Monthly Break-Even Calculator helps you forecast expenses, recurring revenue, and the new business production needed to sustainably grow your agency while maximizing monthly, quarterly, and annual bonuses.

The JPC philosophy: If new business pays for itself within 6-12 months and your book is growing in value while maximizing bonuses, you're winning. But cashflow matters. While many agencies focus on being cashflow-positive on day one, we encourage you to also consider the growing value of your book, building future renewals, and capitalizing on bonus opportunities.

Know what you need to write to maximize new business and bonus opportunities. Invest in proper staffing and marketing with strong training and development, and you'll grow faster and more profitably—earning millions more over the next decade. But remember: don't just buy leads without having trained staff ready to close them. Everything must work together.

Let's crunch your numbers below to see what your staffing, marketing, and production forecasts should be.
