Viewing Your Dashboard 

The Dashboard is the default view after you login. You can also select the Home icon in the upper-left corner of the navigation to access your dashboard

 

The Dashboard is designed to give a quick visual of how you are tracking your sales and total payments. Everything that is viewed on the Dashboard is driven by the selected date ranges directly above the Sales chart 

 

 

Total Sales 

The Total Sales represents the value of all activities that were delivered during the period. 
  
The daily and total buttons show the cumulative sales at that point in time. For example, we can see that the tour operator has $5,432.99 in cumulative sales for September 17:

 

 

Total Payments and Payouts 

You can find Payments and Next Payout just beneath Total Sales

  • Payments reflect the total amount of payments processed during the period, including all payment methods 
  • Next Payout represents the expected value of your upcoming payout 

 

 

Sales By…

Your dashboard features three charts to help track sales:

  • Sales By Source 
  • Sales By Method 
  • Sales By Activity

Sales By Source

Sales By Source analyzes how guests are hearing about the tour operator's company. This metric shows what source the sales are coming from and which sources are bringing in the most revenue. 

For example: You can see that 33.4% of the tour operator's sales are coming from Twitter:

 
 

Sales By Method

Sales by Method analyzes what method customers are booking activities and which methods are bringing in the most revenue

For example: You can see that E-Commerce is bringing in 28.3% of sales revenue:

 
 

Sales By Activity 

Sales by Activity analyzes which activities are being booked the most, highlighting the most popular and those generating the highest revenue.                

For Example: The Kayaking activity is bringing in 41.5% of sales:

 
 

 

 

Top Conversion Paths

The Top Conversion Paths funnel allows you to track the entire customer buying journey, helping you visualize the steps that led to the final purchase.

This funnel shows every stage the customer went through before completing a purchase. The Purchases section at the end highlights all customers who successfully made a purchase.

For example, a customer may start booking on your e-commerce site but abandon their cart. An abandoned cart email will automatically be sent, encouraging them to complete the purchase. You can track this entire process using the Top Conversion Paths chart:

 

 

Flagged Trips 

The Flagged Trips section serves as a notification hub, keeping all trip-related alerts in one place. These flagged alerts assign specific trips to team members for review or resolution:

Search Demand 

The Search Demand section on your TripWorks Dashboard visualizes how many customers engaged with the booking calendar on your e-commerce site. These analytics highlight the dates when customers are most interested in booking a trip.

This tool helps you forecast when there is the highest demand for activities, allowing you to plan resources and staffing more effectively on those specific dates
