How to track appointments in Excel

A simple method for salons, studios, clinics and consultants. Works in Excel and Google Sheets, no macros needed.

Step by step

  1. Record each appointment with date, time, client, service, staff member and price.
  2. Use a Status dropdown: Booked, Completed, No-show, Cancelled.
  3. Total revenue from completed appointments with SUMIFS.
  4. Calculate the no-show rate each month and follow up with repeat no-shows.
  5. See revenue by service and staff member on a dashboard.

Columns to include

Date, Time, Client, Service, Staff, Status, Tip, Price.

Numbers worth watching

Earned this year, Completed visits, No-show rate, Upcoming, Tips. Put them at the top of a dashboard tab so you see them every time you open the file.
