Reading your Insights
What each panel measures, the questions worth asking it, and why its numbers can differ from your own count.
Insights turns your bookings into a picture of the business — when you are busy, what sells, who is carrying the load, and whether customers come back. It is a read-only page: nothing here changes your diary.
What each panel tells you
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Performance history | How bookings have moved over time. The shape matters more than any single number — a steady climb or a slow fade is the thing to notice. |
| Where the money comes from | Which services actually generate your revenue. Frequently different from which you assume, and a good prompt for what to promote. |
| When you are busy | Your demand by time and day. Use it to decide where to add hours — and, just as usefully, which quiet hours to stop offering. |
| Customer loyalty | How many customers are returning rather than booking once. Retention is cheaper than acquisition, so this is worth watching. |
| Team workload | Bookings and hours per person. Spots the imbalance where one person is full and another is not. |
| Recent appointment history | The latest appointments that have passed — a quick sanity check that what you think happened, happened. |
Questions worth asking it
- Which hours are dead? If a morning never books, stop offering it and reclaim the time. Adjust in Hours & time off.
- Which service earns least for the time it eats? Long, cheap services quietly crowd out better ones.
- Is one person always full? Either they need more hours, or the others need promoting on the booking page.
- Are customers coming back? If not, reminders and follow-up matter more than new marketing.
Why numbers can differ from your own count
Insights counts what is in BookerFlow. Anything booked outside it — a regular you pencil in yourself, a walk-in never entered — is invisible here.
Cancellations and no-shows are also treated differently from completed appointments, so a raw count of rows in Appointments will not always match a figure here.
If the numbers look wrong, they are usually incomplete
