Is this machine worth buying?

What it costs, what a session brings in, how many you can book a month. See when it pays for itself, what happens if it books half that, and what it earns after. No account, nothing saved.

Your numbers

Delivered, set up, trained. The whole number, not the deposit.

If it varies by area, use the session you will do most.

The first months are slower than the flyer says. Try half of what you hope.

Fill in what the machine costs and what a session brings in, and the payback appears here; add how many you can book a month and it turns into months. Nothing you type is saved anywhere.

How this is worked out

The machine pays for itself one session at a time, so the tool divides what it costs by what one session keeps after supplies, the card fee, and upkeep spread over the year. Divide that by your bookings a month and you have the payback in months, the number that decides it.

Everything hangs on the bookings, which is what people get wrong the day they fall in love with a machine, so the tool prices half your pace too. Under a year is sound. Two years is a bet on demand.

Paying monthly uses what you will really pay, not the sticker. One thing it cannot see: an hour you would have sold anyway only counts for the difference.
