Why do booth renters need an income tracker?
Booth renters are self-employed: income arrives client by client, rent is due regardless, and taxes are on you. An income tracker shows whether this month’s clients cover rent and what to set aside.
How booth renters use Chairlog
- Log every client with service, tip and product amounts — cash or card.
- Set a monthly goal at rent + costs + your take-home, and watch it fill in History.
- Check Analytics to see how much comes from tips and retail.
- Export CSV (Pro) for your accountant and tax return.
What Chairlog doesn’t do
Chairlog is not a booking system or POS and doesn’t track expenses or mileage. It does one thing: your income, clearly. It costs nothing to start and $2.99 once for Pro.
Frequently asked questions
How should a booth renter track income?
A booth renter should log every client’s service, tip and product sale daily, total it monthly, and compare it to booth rent and costs. Chairlog does the logging and totals on iPhone, and a monthly revenue goal shows whether rent is covered.
Can Chairlog track my booth rent and expenses?
No. Chairlog tracks income only — services, tips and products. Track expenses separately or in a spreadsheet; Chairlog Pro exports CSV to combine them.
