Scheduling software for retail stores: the rota planned against footfall

A weekly rota sized to the shoppers who will actually come through the door, a shelf price worked from cost, freight and markup, and the monthly expenses set against takings. Every answer comes from your own store's numbers, on the page, with no account.

Staff it, price it, keep it

The three sums a store owner does every week, worked from the store's own numbers

The rota is sized to the footfall you expect, not to last week's habit

Hours open times the people the floor needs, plus the back of house hours that happen whether anyone walks in or not, checked against the transactions the footfall will generate. Change the conversion rate and the labor percentage moves while you are still writing the rota, which is when the number matters.

One price per line from landed cost, markup, card fees and shrink

Cost from the supplier plus the freight to get it to your back door, the markup you choose, and what card processing and shrink take out of every sale. Keystone is one setting, not a rule, and the gross profit a week on the line is printed beside the price.

What the store costs to keep open, and what it has to take to cover it

Rent, utilities, wages with burden, insurance, software and marketing added up, then the break even sales at your gross margin after card fees. It is the sum every landlord conversation and every hiring decision comes back to, and it is on one page.

Should you buy a full workforce or retail ERP suite instead?

If you need a time clock on the shop floor, labor law compliance rules by state, payroll, hiring and a stock ledger with supplier ordering, buy a full workforce management or retail ERP suite and pay for it. Footfally is for the store whose problem is narrower: the rota, the shelf price and the monthly figures, done the same way every week, without a per employee fee.

What it is priced on

Footfally: One price for the whole store, $49 a month, however many associates and hours

A full workforce or ERP suite: Priced per user or per location and by tier, so the bill grows with the rota

What you get on day one

Footfally: Every rota, price and expense worksheet free on the page, no account, no trial clock

A full workforce or ERP suite: A demo call and a sales process before you see the product working on your own numbers

Footfall and conversion

Footfally: Yours. Footfally publishes no industry ratio, and the arithmetic runs on the counts you enter

A full workforce or ERP suite: Forecasts from the till feed, which is a real advantage if you have the integration and a cost if you do not

Getting your work back out

Footfally: Bulk export of rotas, price lists and monthly sheets, any time, and 90 days of export after you cancel

A full workforce or ERP suite: Varies by vendor, and the export is often a report rather than your data

Suite pricing, for the record: Homebase lists Basic at $0 per location per month for one location with up to 10 employees and Essentials at $30 per location per month billed monthly (joinhomebase.com/pricing, retrieved 2026-09-05). When I Work lists Essentials at $2.50 per user per month (wheniwork.com/pricing, retrieved 2026-09-05). Deputy lists Lite at $5 per user per month with a minimum monthly spend of $30 (deputy.com/pricing, retrieved 2026-09-05). Zoho Inventory lists Standard at $29 per organization per month billed annually (zoho.com/us/inventory/pricing, retrieved 2026-09-05). Footfally Pro is $49 per month for your whole store.
