Introduction
The New Customers Report generates a list of new customers created during a specified time frame. You can use this report to view which customers were registered through the customer portal or created by a staff user, their referral source, and to see which new customers have future reservations.
As part of Gingr's partnership with Joe Zuccarello, owner of Paragon Dog Grooming and an expert in business management for pet care businesses, we help connect businesses with this expert to best utilize this report and others like it. Joe can assist in setting performance goals as well as provide guidance on reaching those goals.
