Chapter 4

Are next week's empty chairs this week's missed rebookings?

Ghế trống tuần sau có phải do khách lỡ hẹn tuần này?

The chapter's question

Which numbers must one weekly page hold for me to see empty chairs and lost clients at the same time?

Big idea

Empty chairs and clients who do not return are the same problem: every client who misses their window is a chair gap next week. Put both on one page each week and one action fixes both.
