What has to be true

Break-even volumeorders a month to cover fixed costs and ads53 orders
Cash needed up frontmade per order$0
Lead time6 days
Category return ratemodelled into every figure above11.8%
Repeat rate at 90 daysthe category benchmark19%

These are category benchmarks, not a forecast for your line. The advertising figure is the one most worth arguing with — a launch carried by a group's own posting spends far less than this in month one, and far more by month six.

One thing to plan for

Fashion — curated returns at 11.8% — the figures above already account for it. A care and sizing card in the box is the cheapest way to move that number, and it costs less than a quarter per order.
