Illustration. Your numbers fill in as you work through Tabs 1 to 7.
Most revenue goals are wishful thinking.
You picked a number and you’ve been working toward it. But if someone asked you to prove the math behind it, to show that your offers, prices and client capacity can actually get you there, could you?
For most service-based business owners, that math has never been done. Not really.
The Get Paid Calculator changes that. In a few hours of focused work, you’ll have the most complete financial picture your business has ever had, built from the ground up, starting with your real life.
You’re working hard but never sure if you’re on track, because there’s no real financial plan to measure against.
Some months feel great and some feel terrifying, because you can’t see what’s coming.
You suspect you’re undercharging, but without a clear salary goal you don’t know what to charge instead.
You’ve tried other calculators. Too basic, too complicated, or you couldn’t even save your work.
You’ve been treating business revenue as take-home pay, and quietly wondering why there’s never enough.
None of this is a motivation problem. It’s a math problem. And math problems have solutions.
A Google Sheet that does the thinking for you.
You copy it to your own Drive and it’s yours to keep, customize and come back to every year. Every number is connected, every calculation is automated, and every tab builds on the last.

Tab 1 of 8
Personal Salary Calculator
Most revenue goals are set in a vacuum. This tab builds your salary goal from your actual life, starting with what your expenses are today, then where you want to be a year from now. Housing. Insurance. Retirement. Kids’ activities. Vacation. The savings goals you keep putting off.
Add it all up and you get your real number: the take-home salary that would actually make you feel paid.
“This was the first time I’d ever sat down and actually calculated what I need my life to cost. The number surprised me, in the best possible way.”
Is the Get Paid Calculator right for you?
This is for you if
You run a service-based, relational business, as a coach, consultant, strategist, agency owner or creative, and your revenue comes from clients
You have a revenue goal but have never confirmed it’s achievable with your current offers and prices
You want real numbers, a real plan and real clarity about what needs to happen each month
You want to pay yourself a salary that reflects your actual life, not whatever’s left at the end of the month
This is not for you if
✕ You run a product-based business. This is built for service delivery models.
✕ You want a marketing strategy. This shows you your numbers. The strategy for getting those clients comes next.
✕ You want something passive. Budget 2–3 hours to fill it in properly. This is working time, not reading time.
Hi, I’m Racheal. This started as a tool for my own clients.
I’m a business strategist, MBA, and the founder of The CEO Collective®. For more than 15 years I’ve helped women entrepreneurs build profitable, sustainable, life-proof businesses.
After years of watching brilliant women undercharge, under-plan and under-earn, not because they lacked talent but because they lacked a real financial framework, I decided to make it available to everyone.
You deserve to know your numbers. This calculator helps you get there.
Simple. Affordable. Yours to keep.

Frequently asked questions.
Do I need to know spreadsheets or formulas? +
Not at all. Every formula is already built in. You fill in your numbers and the calculator does everything else. If you can type a number and press Enter, you can use this.
How is this different from free templates? +
Free templates give you rows and columns. The Get Paid Calculator gives you an integrated system, where every tab builds on the previous one, every number carries through, and you end up with a complete financial picture. The cash flow projection in Tab 7 is something free templates don’t offer in an integrated format like this.
How long will it take to complete? +
Plan for 2–3 hours your first time through. Tabs 1–3 are faster, about 30–45 minutes in total. Tabs 4–5 take the most thinking, because that’s where you make real decisions about your offers and capacity. Tabs 6–8 are largely automatic once the earlier tabs are filled in. You can work across multiple sessions.
Does this work if I have multiple offers or revenue streams? +
Yes, it’s designed for this. Tabs 3, 4 and 5 let you list every offer at different price points, with different client capacities and payment plan structures. The calculator handles the math across all of them at once.
What if I’m planning a new offer? +
Add it alongside your existing offers with your planned price and client numbers, and you’ll quickly see whether the plan is realistic, or whether you need to adjust pricing or capacity before you launch. Better to know now than after months of effort.
What happens right after I buy? +
You’ll get a confirmation email with a link to our private member space on Circle, where you’ll find the template and the walkthrough videos. The sheet prompts you to make your own copy, so it stays in your Drive, fully under your control.
You’ve been guessing long enough. It’s time to know your numbers.
For $47, you’ll walk away with a clearer financial picture than most business owners ever build. That’s what happens when you sit down and do the math.
