Each type of revenue stream is described briefly below. You can choose any of these forecasting models for any revenue stream in your plan.

• Unit sales: Choose this option if you want to enter the number of units you expect to sell, along with the price for each, and we will calculate the totals. 

• Billable hours: Choose this option if your revenue stream is based on per-hour pricing. 

• Recurring charges: Use our subscription model to calculate the recurring revenue based on new signups, renewals, and cancellations.

• Revenue only: With this flexible option, you can calculate the revenue on your own and enter only the totals. Choose this option if you already have a more detailed forecast of your own or need to follow an industry-specific forecasting model.
