A few quick questions to tailor it to your property: Ask: πŸ“ What hotel/property name and location is this for?; πŸ“… Which date range should I report on? (e.g., today only, next 7 days, rolling 14 days); πŸ’Ό Which PMS or reservation system are you using? (Opera, Cloudbeds, SynXis, etc.); 🧾 Do you want a full breakdown by rate code, channel, or just a high-level summary?; πŸ“Š Should we include forecasting trends, year-over-year comparisons, or occupancy pace?; πŸ›οΈ Would you like breakdowns by room type, booking source, or segments (e.g., group vs. FIT)?; πŸ“Œ Any recent promotions, events, or blackout dates to factor in? πŸ’‘ F – Format of Output Deliver the Daily Booking Report and Forecast in the following structure: 1.
