Editable XLSX file with an included Start Here tab. Use a compatible spreadsheet app and review formulas after opening.
What this file helps you do
Look beyond foot traffic
Input categories cover demand, nearby alternatives, visibility, host commission, power, restocking access and security. A busy venue still needs to make sense for your equipment and service hours.
Keep comparisons consistent
The Results tab brings the entered locations together with their scores and recommendation labels. Using the same criteria helps reveal tradeoffs that are easy to overlook in separate notes.
Turn a weak score into a question
Use low-scoring criteria to guide a follow-up visit: can the host change the placement position, confirm loading access or clarify commission terms? Keep those answers with your site records.
From download to use
Your first pass through the file
- Visit each candidate and record observations using the location checklist.
- Enter the same criteria for each site in Location Scorer.
- Review Results and verify unresolved details before committing equipment.
Know what the file can tell you
Scores are planning rules based on your inputs, not a demand forecast or independent assessment. A GO label does not validate a location or guarantee sales.
Before you download
A closer look
Does it find available locations for me?
No. You bring the candidate locations and observations. The workbook helps compare them; it does not include a location database or host outreach service.
