What's a Monthly Revenue Calculator?

Your monthly revenue calculator helps you estimate your potential monthly income and expenses. It calculates the total amount of money coming into your business from all sources of income.

For service-based businesses—like salons, spas, med spas, barbershops, and others—this includes:

  • Core services (haircuts, facials, massages, treatments)
  • Add-on services (upgrades, extensions, additional treatments)
  • Retail product sales (shampoos, skincare, supplements)
  • Membership fees or packages (monthly memberships, service bundles)
  • Other income streams (classes, workshops, gift card sales)

Why You need a Monthly Revenue Calculator

What a revenue calculator can reveal for you is deeper and more important than your take-home number each month.

It not only saves you time but transforms your financial guesswork into data-driven business planning, helping you set and reach clear, sensible revenue goals. It also helps with:

  • Pricing Strategy
  • Break-Even Analysis
  • Cashflow Forecasting
  • Investment Decisions
  • Performance Benchmarking

Your monthly revenue formula

Before you start crunching some numbers, here is the basic formula you need to use:

  • Revenue Formula = All income from services + retail sales + memberships + any other income streams

Or: 

  • Monthly Revenue = (Number of Services × Average Service Price) + Add-on Revenue + Retail Sales + Recurring Revenue 

Or, for a very detailed version: 

  • Monthly Revenue = (Service Type 1 × Price 1) + (Service Type 2 × Price 2) + ... + Add-ons + Retail + Memberships/Packages  Simply fill in the blanks with the services you provide and products you sell. 

Factoring the number of days worked

The number of working days per week has a significant impact on revenue potential and break-even calculations for service-based businesses.  Let's look at the impact of working days per month on revenue capacity, understanding that:  

  • 5 days/week = 22 working days/month 
  • 4 days/week = 17 working days/month 
  • 3 days/week = 13 working days/month 
  • 2 days/week = 9 working days/month 
  • 1 day/week = 4 working days/month 

So, remember the following formula: Monthly Revenue = Working Days per Month × Services per Day × Price per Service 

Or to be very precise: 

Monthly Revenue = (Days per Week × 4.4) × Services per Day × Price per Service 

Note: 4.4 is the average number of weeks per month (52 weeks ÷ 12 months = 4.33, rounded to 4.4) 

For every step.
