Data analysis: 9 months of bookings at a family-run guesthouse
Key numbers
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Bookings (excl. cancelled) | 251 |
| Room nights sold | 689 |
| Revenue | $78,540 |
| Average rate per night | $114 |
| Cancellation rate | 11.6% (33 of 284) |
| Average stay | 2.7 nights |
Summary by channel
| Channel | Bookings | Share of revenue | Avg. rate | Commission | Net per night |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Booking platforms | 142 | 54% | $109 | 15% | $93 |
| Direct (phone, email, website) | 87 | 38% | $126 | 0% | $126 |
| Local travel agent | 22 | 8% | $102 | 10% | $92 |
Direct guests pay more, stay longer (3.4 nights vs 2.3) and bring $33 more per night after commission than platform guests.
Trends and outliers
- July and August made 41% of revenue; occupancy reached 93%.
- March and April were weakest (occupancy 38%), but weekend nights still sold at 79%: the gap is midweek.
- Cancellations were 19% for platform bookings with free cancellation and 4% for direct bookings with a deposit.
- Outlier: 6 bookings in May at $45 per night. These are all one corporate group with a manual discount; they were kept in totals but flagged.
Findings
- Your most profitable guests are direct, returning guests, yet only 14% of platform guests were invited to book direct next time.
- Midweek in spring is the only real gap; weekends sell themselves.
- Free cancellation on platforms costs about 27 lost nights over 9 months.
Recommendations
- Add a "book direct" card at check-out with a 10% returning-guest rate: still $20 above platform net.
- Create a midweek spring offer (3 nights for the price of 2, Sun–Thu) for March–April.
- Switch platform listings to a non-refundable rate at 8% off alongside the flexible one.
- Track the booking channel for every guest from now on: 17 rows had no channel and were grouped as "direct".
All totals were cross-checked against the monthly sums in your sheet; the difference is $0.

The client and all details are made up.
About this service
Utility bills arrive as PDFs every month and get paid without anyone comparing them over time. We read your electricity, gas, water and heating bills or the figures from them, line up consumption and costs by month, separate price rises from higher usage, check demand charges and standing fees and spot months that look wrong. You see where the money goes and which savings are worth checking first.
What is included
- What you getA report with monthly consumption and cost per utility, price and usage effects separated, cost per square meter or per unit if you give the area, unusual bills flagged and a list of savings to check with your supplier. You get it on the order page and as a Word document, with the tables also as an Excel file (values only, no formulas or charts).

What we need from you
Your utility bills as PDF files with a text layer or a table of monthly figures, the building or business type, its area and opening hours, and any changes such as new equipment or tenants.
We will ask you:
- What kind of building or business is it?
- Which utilities and how many months should we cover?
- What is the floor area, and what are the opening hours?
- Did anything change in the period?

Questions and answers
My bills are scanned paper. Will that work?
Scans without a text layer cannot be read. Type the monthly figures into a table or attach the PDFs from your supplier account.
Will you switch our supplier or tariff?
No. We show which tariff options and fees are worth asking your supplier about. Switching and contracts are up to you.
Can you estimate savings from solar panels or new equipment?
We can give a rough estimate from your consumption if you provide the equipment figures, clearly marked as an example, not a quote.
