Agency Growth and Economics
These engines answer the questions that come up at the whole-agency level: how many active temps you need just to cover overhead, whether a new sales, back-office, or branch hire actually pays for itself, how many more temps a growth target requires, how your full service-model portfolio compares against an alternative mix, and a directional enterprise value range built from your own multiples, never one this engine invents for you.
Start with Agency Break-Even Active Tempsto know your floor, then Gross Profit Required for Target Profitto set a target above it.
- Agency Break-Even Active Temps
Break-even active temp headcount from fixed agency operating cost and contribution per temp.
- Gross Profit Required for Target Profit
Required GP from fixed operating expense, target profit, and optional internal variable expense.
- OpEx-to-Gross-Profit / SG&A Leverage
Current OpEx/GP ratio, plus optional GP-needed and OpEx-supported figures against a target ratio.
- Staffing Sales Hire Break-Even
Required incremental GP from loaded sales cost and commission, plus an optional ramp/payback view.
- Back-Office Hire Break-Even
Total recovered value vs. loaded hire cost, plus a reverse-solved active-temps-to-support figure.
- Branch Break-Even
Required GP for a branch, plus optional conversions to active temps, billings, and placements.
- New Branch Payback
Month-by-month cumulative payback from your own branch contribution curve, not an assumed linear ramp.
- Active Temps Needed for Growth Target
Converts a GP, revenue, or profit target into required and incremental active temp headcount.
- Staffing Service Mix
Whole-agency version of the service-model comparison, plus independently computed alternative scenarios.
- Staffing Agency Valuation and Value Drivers
Enterprise value range from your own EBITDA/SDE and multiples, plus plain-language value-driver context, never a derived multiple.
