About the Staffing Agency Simulator
Model placed workers and the spread between bill and pay rate to see monthly gross margin and profit.
It's built for directional planning: change any assumption and watch the whole projection move, the way a seasoned operator pressure-tests a plan before committing capital. Everything is computed live in your browser — nothing is sent anywhere.

|---|---|
| Placed workers | 100 |
| Bill rate / hour | $45 |
| Pay rate / hour | $30 |
| Hours / week | 40 |
| Monthly fixed | $40,000 |

The Operator's Read
Staffing is a spread business — thin margin per hour, but it scales with placed workers. The whole game is billing more workers at a healthy markup while keeping fill rates and retention high. Educational only.
Assumptions & Limitations
- •The model is deterministic: it projects your inputs forward with clear arithmetic, not a Monte-Carlo or probabilistic forecast. It shows one scenario at a time — run several to bracket a range.
- •Defaults are illustrative benchmarks, not your business. Replace every field with your real numbers before drawing conclusions.
- •It abstracts away taxes, financing, seasonality, and one-off events unless a field explicitly captures them. Treat the output as a directional estimate.
- •This is an educational tool, not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Validate real decisions with a qualified professional.
