Charts are the easiest to understand visualization tool, and InetSoft offers many choices. Tables, as spreadsheets have demonstrated, can pack information in their special ways. InetSoft offers extremely flexible tables that can embed sophisticated inter-cell calculations.
Beyond charts and tables, many other familiar user interface components are equally useful in a dashboard setting. InetSoft treats all these components as first class citizens. That gives each component extensive functionality of its own.
Boutique event planning companies thrive on organization, creativity, and timely execution. They juggle multiple clients, diverse event types, and detailed logistical requirements, all while managing tight budgets and high expectations. For small teams, data management is often handled in Google Sheets because it is flexible, collaborative, and accessible in real time. However, spreadsheets alone rarely provide the visual insights needed to make fast, data-driven decisions. This is where StyleBI comes in, transforming raw Sheets data into interactive dashboards that help planners optimize operations, track performance, and enhance client satisfaction.
Every event generates a variety of data points: client information, budget allocations, vendor quotes, staff schedules, guest lists, and marketing campaign results. A boutique event planning company typically consolidates this information in Google Sheets. The spreadsheets may include:
Google Sheets allows multiple team members to access and update this information simultaneously, ensuring everyone is aligned on the latest changes. However, as the volume of events and complexity of planning grows, reviewing raw sheets becomes cumbersome and inefficient for making strategic decisions.
StyleBI connects directly to Google Sheets and converts the structured spreadsheet data into interactive dashboards and visualizations. This enables event planners to gain a clear picture of operational performance and client engagement at a glance. Key use cases include:
By linking Sheets budgets to StyleBI, planners can generate visual dashboards showing actual versus projected expenses, revenue per event, and overall profit margins. Color-coded charts help quickly identify overspending categories or underperforming revenue streams, enabling proactive adjustments before deadlines. Trend graphs can show profitability patterns across months, event types, or client segments, assisting in strategic pricing decisions.
StyleBI visualizations allow managers to see staff allocation across multiple events in real time. Heatmaps or calendar-based dashboards reveal overbooked or underutilized team members, making it easier to distribute workloads and reduce scheduling conflicts. Staff performance metrics, such as task completion rates or response times, can also be tracked and visualized, helping improve efficiency and accountability.
Using StyleBI, planners can track vendor reliability, cost trends, and service quality. Interactive charts allow the team to compare multiple vendors across different events, identifying which ones consistently meet deadlines, stay within budget, and maintain high-quality standards. This insight supports negotiation, selection, and long-term partnership decisions.
Google Sheets often collects client feedback and satisfaction scores post-event. StyleBI dashboards can visualize trends in satisfaction ratings, highlight repeat client behaviors, and segment clients by demographics or event type. This allows planners to identify areas for improvement, tailor future offerings, and prioritize high-value clients effectively.
Boutique event planners often run multiple marketing campaigns to attract new clients. By feeding lead source data from Google Sheets into StyleBI, the team can track which campaigns generate the most inquiries, how many leads convert into booked events, and the average revenue per channel. Interactive dashboards allow quick comparison of social media campaigns, email campaigns, and referrals, guiding smarter marketing investment decisions.
StyleBI can transform Google Sheets task lists into visual progress dashboards, showing completion percentages, overdue tasks, and upcoming deadlines. Color-coded Gantt-style visualizations allow the team to quickly see which events are on schedule and which require immediate attention. This reduces the risk of missed deadlines and ensures smoother event execution.
