About this model
VidMob is a creative-intelligence platform that helps marketers improve advertising performance through analytics, workflow, scoring, automation, and a managed creative network. It combines software tools with access to creative talent and data-driven production services.
The company served more than 300 enterprise customers and had analyzed 14.4 trillion impressions and six million creative assets. Its commercial structure is primarily SaaS for the analytics and workflow platform, with variable marketplace or managed-service fees for creative work delivered through its network.
The model separates enterprise ARR from creative-network revenue. Customer additions, contract value, expansion, retention, and module adoption build subscription revenue; projects, average spend, and network margin build services income. Sales capacity, cloud and data costs, creative-talent supply, and customer ROI determine operating leverage.
A turnkey financial model
Live formulas, no hardcoded values
Outputs are driven by live formulas, so the workbook updates from its assumptions instead of relying on hardcoded results.
All assumptions in one tab
Inputs are clearly marked in the Assumptions tab and separated from calculations, making it clear what to change and what to leave intact.
Statements always balancing
For integrated-statement models, the balance sheet, cash flow, and supporting schedules tie through properly.
Distinct schedules for clarity
Debt, working capital, taxes, and cash flow can get messy quickly. We group calculations in clear schedules, not across disconnected tabs.
No hidden macros or external links
There are no unexplained external workbook links or macros to undermine auditability or portability.
Changes flow through the model
Update a key driver and see the impact carry through the forecast, financing, and return outputs. We never use hardcoded numbers in formulas.

Recommended financial model
- Archetype + why: SaaS ARR model with a managed-services / marketplace revenue layer. VidMob has two distinct revenue streams: (1) platform SaaS subscriptions (Creative Analytics, Studio, Scoring, Automation), and (2) Creative Network marketplace fees. The ARR model is primary; marketplace adds a variable/transactional revenue line.
- Forecast horizon & granularity: 5-year annual model (2023–2027), with Year 1 broken into monthly for cash-flow and burn visibility. Series D implies scaling phase - 5 years appropriate.
- Key drivers & assumptions:
- Starting customer count: 300+; model from ~320 customers
- Net revenue retention (NRR): ~115–120%
- New logo growth rate:
- Gross margin on SaaS:
- Gross margin on Creative Network (marketplace):
- Revenue mix:
- S&M as % of revenue:
- R&D as % of revenue:
- G&A as % of revenue:
- Churn rate:
- Scenarios (Base / Bull / Bear - which variables flex):
- Bear: New logo growth slows to 15%, NRR at 105%, ACV compression as market softens
- Base: 30–35% new logo growth, NRR 115%, ACV stable
- Bull: Accelerated platform partner referrals drive 50%+ new logo growth, NRR 125%+ via module expansion, marketplace take-rate improves
- Required sheets / outputs:
- Assumptions (all drivers centralized)
- ARR Bridge (new, expansion, churn, contraction waterfall)
- P&L (IS) - split SaaS vs. marketplace revenue lines
- Headcount plan (sales, CS, R&D, G&A)
- Cash Flow / Runway (important at Series D to show path to profitability)
- Unit Economics summary (ACV, CAC, LTV, payback period)
- Dashboard - ARR, NRR, logo count, gross margin, burn, runway

Created by ex-finance professionals
Hey, I’m Alex and I created Finamodel.
Over my years in the finance industry I kept building the same models over and over again. Same structure, same assumptions, different logo. So I started building frameworks to turn them into clean, reusable templates.
Every model here is one I’d actually use for a client, and I personally vet each one before it goes up.
I’m not an expert in every industry, but I’ve built enough models to know what belongs in one. And when something is completely foreign to me, I reach out to my network for experts to work on our models with us.
Having a template library on hand cuts a first build from hours to minutes.
Need help finding your model? You’ll find me in the Finamodel app!
