The operating reality
What could a user-defined close-rate scenario mean in contribution dollars?
Monthly leads × max(0, scenario rate − current rate) × contribution per job.
This is a scenario calculator, not a causal prediction. The operator supplies both close rates and contribution; faster response does not guarantee the scenario.
Formula
What the calculator does
Monthly leads × max(0, scenario rate − current rate) × contribution per job.

Use the number as a decision baseline
This is a scenario calculator, not a causal prediction. The operator supplies both close rates and contribution; faster response does not guarantee the scenario.
Change one input at a time to understand the lever. The calculator is educational and does not promise financial performance.
Input safety
Blank, zero, negative, and divide-by-zero handling
Blank and negative inputs resolve to zero. A scenario below the current rate produces $0 rather than a negative benefit.

Simple dollar example
Make the economics visible.
80 leads × (25% scenario − 20% current) × $1,200 contribution = $4,800 scenario difference.

Use your numbers
How long does a new lead usually wait for a response?
Use one consistent period. Results use only your entries and are educational, not financial advice.
What changes
One clear rule. One accountable next action.
Keep the workflow accountable

Frequently asked questions
Practical buying questions
Is this result a benchmark or forecast?
No. It uses only the values entered and provides an educational baseline. It is not financial advice or a guarantee.
Which period should I use?
Use one consistent period across every input. A monthly spend cannot be compared with annual closes without converting one of them.
What happens with missing or invalid inputs?
Blank and negative inputs resolve to zero. A scenario below the current rate produces $0 rather than a negative benefit.
