planning assumption
Non-binding estimate from planning assumptions. Revenue before costs.
Non-binding estimate. The calculator applies planning assumptions to the numbers you enter and assumes your team can take the extra appointments. The assumptions are grounded in published research, not in measured customer results, and you can change every one of them. It is not a forecast or an offer. Your results depend on your market, your team and how you use beform.
Get this as a PDF with your numbers.
We send the estimate with your inputs, the planning assumptions and the research behind them, so you can put it in front of your partners. Usually within one working day.

Modest assumptions, and the research behind them.
The calculator does not borrow anyone's results. It applies modest planning assumptions to half of your inquiries, assumes the extra appointments close at half your current rate, and lets you change every uplift.

qualified inquiries through beform
People grasp a picture in a glance and act on what they can imagine using. No study measures this for renovation yet, so the figure is kept modest.
Potter et al., 2014 · Elder & Krishna, 2012
+50%
inquiry to appointment, capped at 70%
Leads contacted within the hour are nearly seven times as likely to qualify. beform answers with a visual in under a minute; the model counts a small part of that effect.
Oldroyd et al., 2011
50%
of your inquiries come through beform
The uplifts apply to half of your inquiries only. The rest are counted exactly as they are today.

discovery time per appointment
A meeting that starts from a chosen picture skips the work of turning words into a room in each person's head.
Larkin & Simon, 1987 · Sweller, 1988
+10%
project value, only if you switch it on
People valued a box they had assembled themselves 63 percent higher. The model counts a sixth of that, and only when you switch it on.
Norton et al., 2012

Research · 3.1
Pictures are understood faster and remembered better.
Recognition for pictures is close to ceiling and far above words. A visual of the client's own room gives both sides the same picture from the first contact.
Picture superiorityResearch · 3.4
When the result cannot be pictured, waiting feels safest.
People avoid options with unclear outcomes and weigh losses about twice as heavily as gains. Seeing the result narrows the room for doubt, so inquiries turn into appointments.
Ambiguity and postponementResearch · 4.3
Interest fades within the hour.
Firms that tried to reach an online lead within an hour were nearly seven times as likely to qualify it. A visual delivered at the moment of inquiry arrives while intent is highest.
