THE THINKING BEHIND THE NUMBER
How to use this calculator
CM definitions vary by business. This calculator uses CM1 after COGS, CM2 after variable operating costs, and CM3 after performance marketing.
A practical example
For illustration, enter gross revenue ₹1,00,000, cogs ₹30,000, shipping ₹7,000, packaging ₹2,000. With the remaining fields at their starting values, the cm3 after marketing is ₹35,500.00. Replace these sample figures with your own numbers before making a decision.
How to read your result
Always compare CM stages using the same definitions across months and channels.
Use the result alongside your store analytics, product costs and operating context. If the inputs are estimates, treat the output as an estimate too. Change one input at a time to understand what drives the result.
