Bookings
Definition
The total value of contracts customers have committed to, even before the money is actually received.
Why it matters
Bookings show future revenue you have already won, giving a forward-looking view of sales momentum.
Example
Closing five annual deals worth £10k each gives you £50k in bookings, even if cash arrives later.
