Metrics Dashboard Trend graphs show the selected period as a graph and include a total for the values in that period. Use the graph to spot the shape of the trend, and use the total when you need the summed result for the selected range, such as the total number of cancellations in the filtered period.

Sections on the dashboard

You’ll currently find three main sections of metrics on the dashboard. All Time shows important KPIs relevant for your business for the full history of your business on Firmhouse. Right Now shows how your business is doing right now in a birds-eye overview. Cohort Analyses contains multiple cohort analyses and heat-maps, so you can see how your business is performing over time. This helps you understand what impact marketing campaigns, price changes, seasonality, or product changes may have.

​
Section: All time

Count of all Historic Checkouts is the number of all Checkouts that have been performed and recorded into Firmhouse since your business was on Firmhouse. This may also include imported data from before your time on Firmhouse. The number is the sum of all subscriptions and one-time purchases (if made through Firmhouse Checkout). Count of all historic One-time purchases shows the count of all one-time Checkouts if you have the one-time purchase feature enabled in Firmhouse. These are Checkouts that do not include a subscription product. Total Revenue is the sum of all invoiced revenue that is recorded as an Invoice in Firmhouse. This includes regular invoices and credit notes.

​
Section: Right now

Count of Subscriptions is the count of all current active subscriptions, including paused but excluding cancelled subscriptions. This will also include “cancellation in progress” subscriptions because technically these customers are still billed until they are fully cancelled. Count of Actively charging is the count of all actively charging subscriptions. This means they have an active subscription and active products in them and they are not paused. Count of Paused is the count of all currently Paused subscriptions. Count of Non-Paying is the count of subscriptions that currently have a problem with their payment method, or that failed to pay for an order or invoice even after various automatic retry attempts.

​
Section: Cohort analyses

All cohort analyses and heat-maps are currently based off a monthly cohort. Support for other dimensions and filtering will be added in the future.

​
How to read the cohort analyses and heatmaps

Vertically in the cohort table you see the months in the selected year, and for each month the total number of subscriptions signed up in that month. Horizontally the table shows the value and percentage of how many subscriptions of the given cohort match the criteria that the cohort analyses is about.

​
Orders placed over time

This cohort analyses shows you how many subscriptions of each cohort continued to place orders every month. This is very similar to a typical Retention analyses, but this cohort analyses only takes subscriptions into account when they have actually placed at least one order in the given month after signup. This analyses is useful to see if your customers keep ordering your products over time.

​
Orders at cancellation

This cohort analyses shows you how many orders customers have placed before they decided to cancel. The analyses only includes cancelled customers. The higher the number, the better as the Customer Lifetime Value increases the more orders a customer has placed.
