Pacing Chart

Track Total Bookings, or Bookings in the last 14, 7, or 3 days to determine how much Revenue occurred in these given time ranges.

Toggle between Revenue and Booked Nights to recognize how many nights are still available.

Un-Stack totals to do a side-by-side comparison of how sales are changing week-to-week to identify spikes, trends, etc., and scope out opportunities for optimization!

Filtering by Booked Nights is an incredibly effective way to look at multiple properties in a marketplace! Because, even though your pricing may be different between your four-bedroom and one-bedroom listings, they all have the same number of nights in the month.

Time ranges allow you to compare sales week to week, month to month, etc., and identify trends accordingly.
