TARGETS INCREASE
OF THE HOTEL MANAGER
HOTEL OCCUPANCY RATE Increasing hotel occupancy occupancy rate depends depends on the success success of
marketing plan, which involves product, sales channels, promotions and prices. Marketing plan will will be successful successful only when when management has has a thorough understanding of the target market and needs of potential customers. Marketing environment conditions - economic, social-cultural, legal, competitive and technological-, are directly correlated with the success of marketing plan.
INCREASE
PROFITABILITY OF RATE
Increasing profitability can can be rendered through through reaching reaching the most profitable customer customer groups. As As we all know, know, customers, who who stay at higher higher rates, may not be the most profitable customer group. Another customer group which stays at a lower rate may bring higher revenue by benefiting from other outlets of the hotel such as spa, F&B outlets, etc. At this point, management should should find the answers answers to the the following: a. Who is the most profitable customers? customers? b. What are the most profitable products? products? c. What are the most profitable departments? d. And why are these more profitable? Answers to to these questions questions are keys to increasing sales sales and profitability. profitability.
a. Finding the owners of revenues and expenses Purpose of all company expenditures is to realize company objectives. According to this point of view, each expense should have a purpose and an owner. Here, owner of an expense indicates a department rendering any one of management functions. Similarly, revenues should have generators and owners. It is crucial to define the owners owners of revenues revenues and expenses expenses and determine their generator -in line with responsibility accounting accounting structure. This method will enhance the performance of relevant revenue and expense owners. The golden rule in organizational behavior is "concerning the topics and problems that you own or you are liable for." for."
b. Relating expenses and revenues Revenues brought brought by each market market section and expenses expenses made for for these sales should be correlated. This way, it can clearly be seen that how efficient the management resources are being utilized. The operations which stay below
organization‟s organization‟s expected and targeted "expenditure rate for unit revenue" are determined, problems can be observed, regenerations can be rendered or these operations can be cancelled out entirely. Laundry is a good example for this: Should we have laundry service in our hotel or should we outsource it? In order to make a decision, you should know the exact costs of laundry service and their effects on revenues. But first, these should be correlated to one another.
RISK
MANAGEMENT Many economists economists have often described described „Hotel Business‟ Business‟ as unique
and different from much other business. Hotel is selling both goods and services. It
not only provides both tangible intangible services, but one of its unusual characteristic is also that it is one of the very few places where production and consumption occur simultaneously; for example, ordering subsequent preparation, services and consumption of food items .Both the products and services are offered on credit transaction .no other business allows the customer an immediate line of credit, for example, the moment he registers ,his credit purchase purchase starts with the room and a sequence of financial charges throughout the facilities without
immediately paying for them at the „point of purchase‟. For example, purchase of food in restaurant, restaurant, drinks in in bar valet services, services, etc. no other business offers offers as varied a range of services and products at the same place as hotel business. Each hotel must offer lodging, food and protection to their guest and assume a liability for guest property, property, provide a high standard standard of hygiene, cleanliness cleanliness and sanitation sanitation and should confirm to the minimum requirements requirements of the state regarding safe hotel construction such as height of building, municipal-by-laws, municipal-by-laws, fire and safety standard so no.
The risk management is done under the following processes: processes:
Establishing Establishing the content
Risk assessment assessment
Risk identification identification
Risk analysis analysis
