Worked ROI example (conservative)
Assumptions (replace with your numbers):
- 500 appointments/month; average ticket $60; baseline no‑show rate 10%.
- Altegio reduces no‑shows by 40% relative (below the “up to 60%” result cited), i.e., 10% → 6%.
- Incremental attended appointments = 500 × (10% − 6%) = 20.
- Recovered revenue = 20 × $60 = $1,200/month.
- Admin time saved: finance + payroll 8 hours/month → 2 hours/month (6 hours saved). At $25/hour, that’s $150/month.
- Inventory efficiency: 10% reduction on $1,000/month consumables = $100/month. Net monthly impact (before software fee and payment‑gateway costs): ~$1,450. With commission‑free pricing (from $11/month), the payback remains strong even after payment processor fees (e.g., Stripe/VivaWallet) and messaging costs.

Why commission‑free matters for lifetime value
Marketplace economics can erode LTV via commissions and client diversion. Analyses document commission ranges (2–10% Mindbody; up to 20% Treatwell) and cross‑promotion that pushes customers to competitors. Voximplant analysis.
