BookLive automatically tracks your booking history with each partnership, giving you valuable insights into which relationships are generating the most business.
Viewing Performance History #
To see your history with a partner:
- Open the partnership detail view
- Click the Performances or History tab
- View all past and upcoming performances with this partner
What’s Tracked #
For each partnership, BookLive tracks:
Performance Count #
The total number of performances (gigs) you’ve booked with this venue or planner. This includes:
- Completed performances
- Upcoming confirmed bookings
- Historical data from before you started tracking
Performance Value #
The total revenue generated from performances with this partner. This helps you identify your most valuable relationships.
Using Performance Metrics #
Sorting by Performance #
In your Gig Vault list, you can sort partnerships by:
- Performance count – See who gives you the most bookings
- Performance value – See who generates the most revenue
This helps you identify your top partners at a glance.
Prioritizing Relationships #
Use performance data to prioritize your efforts:
- High-value partners – Maintain strong relationships, consider exclusive arrangements
- Growing partners – Nurture relationships showing increased bookings
- Declining partners – Re-engage or investigate why bookings have dropped
- New partners – Track initial bookings to identify promising relationships
Individual Performance Details #
From the Performances tab, you can:
- Click on any performance to view full details
- See performance dates and times
- View the quoted/paid amounts
- Access contracts and invoices
- Review event details and notes
How Data is Connected #
Performance history is linked automatically when:
- A performance is booked at a venue you have a partnership with
- A performance comes from a planner you’ve added to your vault
- The venue or planner on a booking matches a partnership record
Make sure your partnership records use the same venue/planner records as your performances for accurate tracking.
Analyzing Trends #
Look for patterns in your performance data:
- Seasonal patterns – Do some partners book more at certain times?
- Event types – What kinds of events does each partner typically book?
- Growth trends – Are bookings increasing or decreasing over time?
- Average deal size – Calculate value per performance
Best Practices #
- Review regularly – Check performance metrics monthly
- Update partnership status – Move active bookers to “Active” status
- Thank top partners – Acknowledge your best relationships
- Re-engage quiet partners – Reach out to partners who haven’t booked recently
