🎯 Market & Potential

M €
Estimated total annual revenue in your target market
💡 Market Size means the total revenue of all providers in your target market per year. Example: The German e-learning market has approx. 3,000 million € annual revenue.
%
Realistic market share in percent (0.1% - 10% are typical values)
💡 Market penetration is hard to achieve. Successful startups often only capture 0.1-1% of their target market. Be conservative!
💡 Competitive analysis: Also consider indirect competitors and alternatives. Customers always have the option to "buy nothing".

💰 Customers & Revenue

Average total revenue per customer over the entire business relationship
Average marketing and sales costs per acquired customer
💡 Customer retention: High switching costs arise from integration, training, data export barriers or contractual obligations.

🔧 Costs & Development

Already spent time, personnel, and material costs
Estimated additional costs until market readiness
Hosting, maintenance, support, licenses per year
💡 Scalability: SaaS products usually scale very well, services and hardware scale poorly.

⚖️ Risk & Differentiation

💡 Technical risk: Higher complexity = longer development + higher costs + more bugs.
💡 Differentiation: "10x better" is often more important than "10% cheaper". Focus on unique value propositions.
💡 Resources: Consider full-time equivalents, not just number of people. 4h/week = 0.1 FTE.
💡 Synergies: Projects with high synergies enable cross-selling, shared infrastructure and knowledge transfer.
