How to use it
Let's take a friendly stroll through your Business Overview Dashboard so you know exactly what to look for. Think of this less as a "to-do" list and more as a "what to see" guide – a friendly introduction to your new favourite hub!
Welcome to Your Overview:
When you first land on your dashboard, you'll be greeted with a clean and clear overview. Here's what you'll see:
Your Business Name: Right at the top, you'll see your business name, confirming you're in the right place!
Quick Summary Cards: These are like little information postcards. You might see cards that show you things like:
Profile Completeness: A handy percentage that tells you how much of your business profile you've filled out. It's a great reminder to keep your information up-to-date!
Recent Enquiries/Bookings: If you're using our tools for bookings or enquiries, you might see a snapshot of recent activity here.
Important Notifications: Sometimes, we'll have important messages for you, like new features, tips, or reminders. These will often appear as little alerts or notifications on your dashboard so you don't miss a thing.
Navigate with Ease:
Your dashboard isn't a static page; it's a launchpad! You'll notice clear buttons or links that encourage you to explore further. For example:
"Edit My Profile" Button: This is a common one! Clicking this will take you straight to your business profile page where you can update your contact details, add stunning photos, write compelling descriptions, and much more. We'll chat more about keeping your profile sparkling in a moment.
Links to Other Tools: Depending on what features you're using, you might see quick links to other essential areas, like your booking management system, marketing resources, or analytics. Think of them as express lanes to the tools you use most often.
Explore the Side Menu (or Top Menu): While the dashboard gives you a great snapshot, the main menu (often on the left-hand side or across the top of your screen) is where you'll find all the detailed sections of the Tourism Accelerator platform. Your dashboard is a friendly reminder of what's important, and these menus are your full roadmap.
Don't worry, exploring your dashboard is designed to be intuitive and easy. Just click around gently, and you'll quickly get the hang of where everything is. If you're ever stuck, that's okay – we're always here to help!
Your Business Overview Dashboard is your central hub for a reason! Here's a quick rundown of the fantastic things you can do and see right from this friendly page:
Get a Snapshot of Your Business: Instantly see key information about your profile's completeness and recent activity, helping you stay informed at a glance.

Tips
To truly make your Business Overview Dashboard work for you, here are a few friendly tips from your support team:
Make it Your Daily (or Weekly) Check-in: Get into the habit of visiting your dashboard regularly. Just a quick glance can help you stay organised, spot new notifications, and remind you of any tasks that need doing. It only takes a minute, but it can make a big difference!
Keep Your Profile Complete and Current: Your dashboard will often show you how complete your business profile is. Think of this as your friendly nudge! A complete profile with up-to-date photos, descriptions, and contact information is absolutely essential for attracting guests. If your dashboard says you're at 70%, challenge yourself to get to 100%!
