Your hotels teamsheet in the secure section

Look at the screenshot below: this is what you will see in the secure section: your hotels private teamsheet.

Your teamsheet in the secure section

This example is the teamsheet of team A01 Amstelburg 01 which still has no name. In this example we have filled out all of the years. Of course if you start you will only see year0, the history, filled out with decisions from the past. There is three major parts in the secure section

We know look at the explanations form.

Explanations in every year

All decisions in all years must be backed-up by explanations. In the secured section you will find the link to the explanations form at decision 14 on the tab decisions.

Explanations form.

In this so called explanations form you explain very explicitly every year why you took the decisions your team took. You also fill out, as a back-up please do not forget, the decisions themselves as well. So the decisions are to be filled out in the teamsheet (tab decisions) AND in the explanations form. Make things smart, make calculations and refrain from general remarks like 'we think this is interesting'. 'A lower price bring more customers'. Be sure to calculate with the new price to prove that if the new, lower price works out, this will rise the occupancy rate and so the revenues. In the end this will bring more profit because.... and calculate this.
All your explanations will stay in this same document, which is a Google online text file. All your teammembers can work in the same file all of the years (even at the same moment). All you do is saved automatically all the time in this document there is no save button :-)

If a year has passed, leave that section with explanations in: do not change it anymore and jump to next year. All of the years the questions asked are the same. Please put in (hyper)links to sources and for instance social media. Put in pictures and photo's if they support your remarks (just be sure that they are not too much mb's!). The explanations form is also private to your team, keep that in mind.
The explanations form will look somewhat like the picture underneath. Keep in mind that the form you get might look a bit different.

Your mark and occupancy

The explanations form is very important in every year because

  • your occupancy (and profit) depend on your decisions but even more on your explanations in this form!
  • your game mark you get every year depends on these explanations as well.

Your explanations show that you are really managing the hotel in a proper, well-thought over manner. Leaving this out just means filling out numbers and guessing and will for sure bring down your occupancy and result in a low mark.
