|---|---|---|---|---|---|

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.

關於此服務
預算唯有定期逐項對照實際支出與收入,才有用處,而且每個月都要做。我們取得您的預算與實際數字,以金額和百分比計算差異,區分時間性差異與真正的超支,並用淺白的文字說明最大的落差。主管可以花十分鐘讀完報告,而不是面對一張滿是紅色儲存格的表。
包含內容
- 您會收到什麼一份依項目與月份列出金額與百分比的差異報告、說明主要偏差、區分時間性與真實差異,以及給預算負責人的簡短問題清單;這是分析,並非財務建議。成果會顯示在訂單頁面,並提供 Word 文件下載,表格另提供 Excel 檔(僅含數值,不含公式或圖表)。
- 差異表每個項目的預算、實際與落差
- 主要偏差解釋大部分落差的項目
- 時間性或真實支出挪到其他月份,還是真的超支
- 年底展望進階版:依目前的步調,全年會落在哪裡
- 負責人問題該問每位預算負責人什麼
服務流程

需要您提供的資料
您的預算與實際數字(一到兩個 Excel 或 PDF 檔,或貼上的表格)、期間,以及對您而言多大的差異才值得關注的門檻。

- 報告要涵蓋哪幾個月?
- 落差超過多少才值得說明?
- 誰會閱讀這份報告?
