Pott Candles: what hitting Ailis's £900k / £768k would take, day by day (30 Oct 2026)

Her revenue = her sheet's daily shape scaled to £900k November and £768k December (incl VAT). Spend (no loss) = the most we can spend that day without losing money: before BF, contribution after ads is zero (returning customers cover the new-customer loss, overhead is not covered); from early access on, contribution is 12.7% of revenue (the 3.5x rule), which is where the profit comes from. NC ROAS required = the new-customer revenue that spend must return to hit her number. Curve says = what we'd actually get at that spend on this year's efficiency. Push = the realistic line from the v2 write-up, for comparison. Orange rows are BF5, blue rows December.
