šŸ“Š Using the Class Economics Tool

FitGrid’s Class Economics Tool helps you understand how each class contributes to your business

Written by Kevin Gregor

šŸ’” What You Can Do with Class Economics

  • Identify your most and least profitable classes

  • See which time slots or instructors drive client return rates

  • Compare class performance across locations

  • Spot trends in attendance, revenue, and capacity over time


🧾 What’s in the Table?

Each row in the Class Table represents a unique class slot, defined as:

  • Class Name + Time of Day + Day of Week + Location

You’ll see performance metrics for the selected month.

Metrics shown in the table:

  • Avg Clients per Class
    The average number of clients per session (includes attends, late cancels, and no-shows)

  • Avg Returning Clients
    Clients who returned to this class slot more than once in the month

  • Avg Fill Rate
    How full your classes were — based on capacity usage

  • Avg Revenue per Class
    Average revenue per session (based on visit-level pricing)

Listen while adding your own settings to the tool šŸ‘‡

Extra tips:

  • You can sort by any column

  • Use the search bar to find a specific class

  • Clicking a row highlights it and updates the chart below


šŸ“ˆ Historical Trends (Charts)

When you select a class slot, the chart updates to show performance over the past 12 months. You can choose from three chart views:

  • Avg Clients & Returning Clients (displayed as two bars)

  • Fill Rate

  • Revenue

Each chart includes:

  • Labeled axes and months

  • Proper scaling for easy comparison

  • Clean, easy-to-read formatting


🧩 Header KPIs (Tiles)

At the top of the page, you’ll see 4 key metrics that give you a quick snapshot:

  • Avg Clients per Class

  • Avg Returning Clients

  • Avg Fill Rate

  • Avg Revenue per Class

Each one:

  • Reflects the current filter settings

  • Shows a % change from the previous month

  • Uses color-coded arrows (green = improvement, red = decline)


🧪 Filters & Controls

  • Location (default = All)
