E EYT works the front desk too. It can text a payment link, send a waiver, or assign a greeter, all without leaving this screen.

One scan, and the studio knows four things

Who came in, which class, which teacher, and at what time. Everything on this screen is that one fact used four different ways, and none of it works without it.

The desk still checks people in by name and always will. Scanning is for the regulars who come three times a week and do not want to have a conversation at 5:55 in the morning.

The code on the wall

Changes every 60 seconds
Works for 15 minutes either side of a class
Scanned this week 204 of 486 check-ins
Members using it 71 of 298

It rotates because a photograph of a static code on a wall is a free class forever. Sixty seconds is short enough that a screenshot is useless and long enough that nobody has to try twice.

What it cannot do

Check in somebody who is not bookedIt opens the booking screen instead, with the class already chosen. A scan is not a way around a full room. By design
Check in a first timerA first visit is a waiver, an injury note and a conversation. Those go through the desk, every time. By design
Replace the rosterThe teacher's roster is still the record. A scan marks attendance on it, it does not become it. By design

Three steps, and the second one is the only one a member ever sees. Each one only runs because the scan said who was in the room.

One tap
"How was Reformer Flow with Dana?" Five stars, no text box, no second screen. Skipping it costs nothing and it never asks twice about the same class. The member 204 asked, 138 rated
When that teacher is next on
At most once a fortnight
"Priya is covering Saturday 9:00. You rated her class four stars in July." One text, with the booking link. Members who rated that teacher 4 or better 61 sent, 24 booked

24 bookings from 61 texts, and every one of them went to somebody who had already said they liked that teacher. The same text sent to all 298 members is the thing that makes people mute a studio, and it would have found most of the same 24.

A reward for frequency, not for spending. It is off until you turn it on and it shows you what it would have cost last month first.

Rule What earns it What they get Would have gone to State
Ten in three weeks
The one Jessica described
10 classes attended inside any 21 day window $5 off grip socks, applied at the desk 14 members, $70
Back after a gap
Worth more than the one above
A class after 30 days away, then another inside 14 days Their next class free 6 members, $192
A hundred classes
Not a discount
The hundredth class at this studio, ever Named on the board by the desk, if they want to be 3 members

The middle rule costs the most and is the only one that changes a behaviour. Fourteen people who already come ten times in three weeks were going to come anyway, so the grip socks rule is a thank you, which is a fine thing to be as long as nobody expects it to move a number.
