How do I use it?
Submit a Google form after every tattoo. It’s quick, and you can do it on your phone. If you choose Tattoo Logger Comprehensive, you’ll keep expenses up-to-date with another Google form.
The forms populate your spreadsheet, which automatically generates analyses. You can click around to look at different Dashboards to see information about your business.
