Revenue Forecast Calculator
Project revenue for the coming months from your current orders, average order value and expected monthly growth.
What is revenue forecasting?
A simple forecast compounds monthly order growth: orders in month n = current orders × (1 + growth)ⁿ⁻¹. Multiply by AOV for revenue.
How to use the revenue forecast calculator (formula)
What each field means
- Current monthly orders — Orders this month.
- Average order value — Average order value.
- Monthly order growth — Expected monthly order growth.
- Months to forecast — Months to forecast.
Worked example
Using these numbers: current monthly orders 800, average order value $42.00, monthly order growth 6%, months to forecast 12.
The total revenue over the period is $566,830.
- Revenue in the final month: $63,783
- Orders in the final month: 1,519
What growth rate is realistic?
Steady brands often grow 2–5% per month; aggressive scaling phases can reach 10%+ but rarely sustain it.
Tips to improve your result
- Build a low, expected and high scenario.
- Check stock and cash flow against the forecast.
- Update the forecast monthly with real numbers.
- Include seasonality for big sale months.
