Planning model, not personalized financial advice. Your inputs remain in your browser.

Calculation method

Agency fee revenue = max(media spend × fee rate, minimum fee). Contribution = fee revenue − delivery hours × loaded cost − unreimbursed tools.

Assumptions and limitations

  • Example inputs are editable scenarios, not Aryo results or independently verified industry benchmarks.
  • Use collected revenue and fully loaded delivery costs consistently. Released time is capacity, not automatically a cash saving.
