DYNE's Foot Traffic Report is a powerful feature designed to provide crucial insights into customer flow and behavior.

By leveraging our partnership with Microsoft, we pull foot traffic analysis from weather, historical data, and upcoming events to give you a comprehensive view of your restaurant's busyness.

Type in a business in the location you are looking to view.

A drop-down menu will appear for you to select this business.

You will then see:

πŸ‘£ Current percentage of busyness: Real-time data on how busy this business is.

πŸ‘£ Forecasted busyness for the current hour: Predictions on how the traffic will change.

πŸ‘£ Average customer dwell time: The average time customers spend at this business.

πŸ‘£ Weekly breakdown of peak busy hour overview: Identifies the busiest hours during the week.

πŸ‘£ Bar graph showing busy times and days: Visual representation of busyness trends.

πŸ‘£ Breakdown of daily busyness trends: Max and mean busyness data for each day.

πŸ‘£ Hourly busyness heat map: Visual heat map showing traffic patterns throughout the day.

πŸ‘£ Hourly busyness analysis by day: Categorizes hours as low, below average, average, above average, and high.

Why is the Foot Traffic Report Important for Restaurant Success?

Optimizing Staffing and Resources:

Imagine you run a popular cafe. With the Foot Traffic Report, you notice that Mondays from 8 AM to 10 AM are particularly busy. Armed with this data, you can ensure you have enough staff on hand to manage the morning rush, reducing wait times and improving customer satisfaction.

Enhancing Marketing Strategies

Imagine this: A local pizzeria finds that Thursdays have lower foot traffic compared to other weekdays. By knowing this, they can plan targeted promotions or special events to attract more customers on these slow days, thereby boosting sales and improving overall business performance.

Improving Customer Experience

Imagine This: A family-owned diner sees through the Foot Traffic Report that their average customer dwell time is longer during weekends. They can use this insight to optimize table turnover without compromising customer experience, ensuring that they can serve more guests efficiently.

Managing Inventory More Effectively

Imagine This: A seafood restaurant observes a significant spike in foot traffic during Friday evenings. With this knowledge, they can adjust their inventory orders to ensure they have enough fresh seafood to meet the increased demand, reducing waste and maximizing profits.

Planning for Seasonal and Event-Driven Changes

Imagine This: During the local summer festival, a bar notices increased foot traffic and longer dwell times. By anticipating this with the Foot Traffic Report, they can prepare by stocking up on popular drinks and hiring additional temporary staff to handle the crowd.

Gaining Competitive Edge

Imagine This: A bakery sees that its competitor across the street has a consistent lunchtime rush. By analyzing their own foot traffic data, they can identify potential gaps and opportunities to attract the competitor's customers, such as offering a new lunch menu or special deals.
