All results

The results of your hotel will be made automatically by the accountant. You just have to analyse them, your do not have to calculate them yourselves apart from predictions linked to new costs and special decisions you make. After each year they will be ready for you in the secure section in your teamsheet which is accessible with your personal link.

Your results presented there will be divided in four parts:

  • Section operating review: which you will find on the operating review page with all your revenues and costs resulting in your net profit (or loss).
  • Section with your personal key metrics.
  • Section Market information, if paid for in advance. We will focus on this now.
  • Section Short comment of your coach.
