Welcome to your command center! The Partner Dashboard is where you will manage every aspect of your Savvy Local presence. Think of it as your digital toolkit for attracting new customers, managing your deals, and tracking your success.
Let’s take a quick tour so you know where everything is and what it does.
The Main Dashboard: Your At-a-Glance Overview
When you first log in, you land on your main Dashboard. This is your high-level snapshot of business activity. Here you’ll find:
- Key Stats: Four prominent boxes at the top show your most important metrics: Active Listings, Total Views, Total Reviews, and how many times your deals have been Bookmarked by users.
- Visual View: A chart or graph that gives you a quick visual representation of your performance over time.
- Recent Activities: A feed that shows your latest notifications, such as new bookings or recently received customer reviews.
Managing Your Day-to-Day: Bookings & Messages
This group of tools is for managing your customer interactions and appointments.
- My Bookings: This tab gives you a list view of all your active and expired booking requests.
- Messages: Your dedicated inbox. Any questions or concerns from customers will appear here, allowing you to reply directly and provide great service.
The “Bookings” Super-Tab: This powerful section contains everything you need to manage time-based deals:
- Calendar View: See all of your upcoming appointments in a clean calendar format. You can filter by status to see bookings that are Pending, Approved, Paid, Cancelled, or Expired.
- QR Code Scanner: When a customer arrives, use this tool to verify their booking. Customers receive a unique QR code for their deal; you can use a separate phone or tablet to access this scanner and validate their ticket instantly. (We are working on a major overhaul to bring you even bigger and better features, including a more integrated scanning experience!)
- Booking States: A filterable list view of all your bookings, allowing you to quickly manage requests that are Pending, Approved, Cancelled, etc.

What’s Next? Time to Create Your First Deal!
Now that you know your way around, it’s time for the most exciting part: creating your first deal to attract new customers. The first step is to click the “Add Listing” button in the “Listings” tab.
From there, you will choose what kind of deal you want to create. There are two types:
- Service-Based Deals: Perfect for booking-type businesses where customers need to secure a specific time slot for an appointment. (Use cases: Salons, consultants, studios, repair services, etc.)
- Event-Based Deals: Ideal for businesses offering a deal with a set price or a limited quantity that doesn’t require a specific booking time. (Use cases: Restaurant specials, retail discounts, tickets to a performance, etc.)
