Common Definitions in Meevo Reports

We understand that businesses come in all shapes and sizes. This is why we offer over 100 different reports that allow you to slice and dice your data as you see fit, ensuring that you can always find that particular data point you are looking for. 

Generally, most Meevo reports follow a "standard" of definitions for things like New Clients and Visits. Below you'll find definitions for our most common metrics, with call outs as to which Meevo reports follow the standard and which don't. Remember, most reports in Meevo should not be compared against one another, as there can be subtle differences in some fields that can cause seemingly identical metrics to present different values. This topic will help you understand what these reports are doing with certain metrics.

New Clients and Visits

Standard Definition of a New ClientA new client is someone new to the business who had a visit during the date range or pool month, with no visits prior to the date range. 

Standard Definition of a Visit: A visit occurs when a client is rung up for at least one service on a transaction. It is not necessary for the service to have been booked before it was rung up.

Retention

Standard Method for Determining Retention: For retention, you'll usually want to follow our Meevo standard of looking back 4 months for the pool month of clients who had visits during that month, and then looking for return visits in the following 3 months. However, for your flexibility, most retention reports let you customize this range:

Standard Definition of a Rebook: Rebooks are determined according to Meevo's rebooking rules. All reports follow this standard except for the AQ000, which does not consider retroactive rebooks.
