Defaults: downside = 70% of planned sales (−30%) with 1-month slower collections; upside = 115%. After month 12, seats grow +1.25/month (assumption), fixed overhead rises 10%/year and a 5%-of-revenue scaling cost applies. Tax is paid at each year-end on positive profit. Edits apply to the selected case only.

This is business cash recovery, not investor payback. Investor payback depends on the hypothetical terms below.
Hypothetical investor distributions
Separately modeled — no terms exist
Illustrative only. IAMON has not offered equity or set any distribution policy. Business operating profit is not investor return. Distributions are paid only if after-tax profit exists AND cash stays above the reserve. Principal is not protected: investors could receive nothing and lose all capital.

Risks
What could go wrong
- Sales slower than planned — the 30% downside can create a cash shortfall.
- Clients pay late — collections delay deepens the cash low point.
- Talent retention and replacement costs above assumptions.
- Pricing pressure below assumed per-seat rates.
- Data security incident or client concentration.
- Need for additional funding, diluting or wiping out early investors.
- Thin reserve if sales cycles run long
- Founder carries most selling
- Little budget to absorb attrition
