The MetGo Index
See what's growing. Know where to water.
The MetGo Index shows your municipality, at any moment, which businesses are blooming and which are starting to wilt, which are growing and which have stalled, which are just sprouting and which need a hand. So every shekel goes exactly where it will grow the most.
Four stages of growth. One language for the whole region.
Every business in the system gets a stage based on its real activity in NATI – sales, bookings, voucher and cashback redemptions – measured against a threshold your municipality sets.
- BloomingAbove the threshold and still growing. A leader you can build around.
- GrowingAbove the threshold and moving. Keep the pace.
- SproutingActivity is starting, still below the threshold. A small push will help it develop.
- ThirstyJoined, but no transactions this period. Needs watering before it wilts.
Food businesses in the council
- Blooming 6
- Growing 14
- Sprouting 20
- Thirsty 32
An illustrative example: the index showed most food businesses were thirsty. A cashback campaign aimed only at them – and a month later you see how many moved up a stage.
- See the whole fieldWhere money flows and where it's dry – by town, category and season.
- Spot it earlyBusinesses starting to wilt, before they close.
- Water preciselyA campaign, event or message only for the businesses that need it – not everyone.
- See what grewAfter every action, see how many businesses moved up a stage. Data that justifies budgets.
