Cost of waiting
What does another month of waiting cost your firm?
Use your own numbers. Every figure on this page is an estimate based on what you enter. Change any field and the result updates.
How the estimate works
- One month = founder hours per week × 4.33 weeks × your rate, plus engagements lost per quarter × average value ÷ 3.
- Six and twelve months repeat the same monthly figure. No growth, no discount rate.
- Value gap = annual profit × (multiple without the founder − current multiple). Both multiples are your hypotheses.
- This is not a valuation and not a promise of return. It shows the order of magnitude of what waiting costs, on your numbers.
