2. What You’ll See in the Locals Analytics Dashboard
Once you open your dashboard, you’ll land on a clean, visual overview of how your club is performing. The data is grouped into three core sections:
📊 Club Overview
This section gives you a quick snapshot of your club’s growth and revenue performance at a glance.
You’ll see:
-
Total Club Page Views – The number of times your club page has been viewed.
-
Total Members – How many people have joined your club overall.
-
Paid Members – How many of those members are currently on a paid tier.
-
Free Members – The number of people who joined but haven’t yet paid.
-
Total Revenue – All-time earnings from memberships and paid events (Stripe fees and refunds included).
-
Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) – Expected monthly income from your active paid members.
-
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) – Projected yearly income based on current active subscriptions.
🧠 Why it matters: This section helps you instantly understand your growth trajectory and how close you are to revenue goals.
👥 Member Insights
This section gives you a demographic breakdown of your audience, helping you tailor your events and messages more effectively.
You’ll find visual charts for:
-
Age – Distribution of members across age groups (e.g., 18–25, 26–35).
-
Gender – See how your audience splits across female, male, and non-binary identities.
-
Top Interests – Based on your members' responses, shows the topics your members care about most.
-
Languages Spoken – Understand the primary languages your community uses.
-
Top Countries – Know where your members are based geographically.
💡 Tip: Use these insights to choose better event times, content formats, and themes based on your audience makeup
📈 Member Directory + Lifetime Value
In the “Members” tab, you’ll see a searchable list of your entire club — each with individual profiles.
For each member, you can view:
-
Name and profile info
-
Total Spent – Combined revenue from events and memberships
-
Member Since – When they joined your club
Sort and Filter Options:
-
Tap on Total Spent to sort by highest- or lowest-spending members
-
Tap on Member Since to sort from oldest to newest (or vice versa)
💡 Engagement Idea: Reward your most loyal members with a shoutout, a surprise gift, or a free invite to a premium event.
You can also Download a CSV to analyze your full member list offline.
📅 Events Performance
You’ll also find a section specifically tracking your hosted events, with analytics for:
-
Total Event Page Views – How often your event listings were seen.
-
Participants – Number of members who RSVP’d.
-
Conversion Rate – The percentage of people who visited the event page and actually signed up.
-
Revenue – Income generated from paid events.
Each individual event also shows:
-
Page Views 👁️
-
Number of Participants 👤
-
Revenue Generated 💶
📌 Why it’s useful: You can easily compare which events are performing best and which ones might need better promotion or a different format.
3. Understanding Key Metrics
Here’s a quick breakdown of what each major metric tells you — and why it matters:
🔢 Total Members
The total number of people who have joined your club. Useful for tracking growth over time.
Tip: A steady increase means your content or outreach is working. Flatline? Try promoting your club link more often or collaborating with aligned communities.
💸 Total Revenue
The cumulative income from paid events and memberships.
Tip: Use this to understand your overall financial performance. Look for spikes tied to specific campaigns, events, or tier launches.
🔁 Monthly & Annual Recurring Revenue (MRR & ARR)
Estimates how much you’re earning on a monthly/yearly basis from active subscriptions.
Tip: Helpful for planning. Recurring revenue provides predictability — the more stable your MRR, the easier it is to invest in events or perks.
👥 Free vs. Paid Members
See how many of your members are contributing financially.
Tip: If your club has a high number of free members, consider creating exclusive chats or discount incentives to convert them to paid.
🌍 Member Insights (Age, Gender, Interests, Languages, Countries)
Understand who your audience really is — and what they care about.
Tip: Use this to shape everything from event themes to messaging tone. If your club is mostly 26–35 year olds interested in "travel and wellness," you know exactly what to deliver next.
4. Tips to Improve Strategy Using Analytics
Looking at data is one thing — acting on it is what makes it powerful. Here’s how to use your Locals Analytics to grow faster and smarter:
1. Spot What Works — and Do More of It
Notice a spike in views or revenue after a specific post, poll, or event? Double down. Repeat the format, time of day, or content angle.
2. Identify Drop-Offs Early
If your total members stay the same for multiple weeks, or recurring revenue dips, it’s time to intervene:
-
Reintroduce weekly chat prompts
-
Check if your last few events aligned with member interests
-
Use polls to re-engage quieter members
3. Reward Your Most Loyal Supporters
Use the Members tab to sort by “Total Spent” and spot top contributors. You can:
-
Offer them early access to events
-
Drop them a personalized thank-you voice note
-
Send them a surprise gift
4. Tailor Based on Demographics
If most of your members are in one city or time zone, schedule events at peak local hours.
If you have multilingual members, consider offering bilingual content or event descriptions.
5. Test → Learn → Improve
Use your analytics to test small changes:
-
Try a new format (audio vs. text)
-
Shift your event time
-
Introduce a limited-time offer
Then check your numbers — views, sign-ups, revenue — a week later to evaluate the impact.
Remember:
You don’t need to be a data expert to benefit from your analytics.
The key is consistency: check in weekly, ask yourself what’s working, and make small tweaks that build momentum over time.
