Motel Operations & Awareness

Motel Systems:-

For a motel to operate in this environment you have many areas to control. Each area costs money to operate.

To assess these costs the above software shows template income and expenditure on a typical motel Profit & Loss.

1. Accountancy

2.Advertising

3.Credit Card Charges

4.Cleaning or Cleaning Contracts

5. Electricity Gas or Oil

6.Insurance including Workers Compensation and associated assessments

7. Interest on loans

8. Laundry Operation (In house)

9. Linen Supply (External)

10. Superannuation

11. Telephone Service

12. Office Systems: The main area to assess in office systems to have a system that is simple for all to use and it can create BAS returns and link with your Accountants software.

Hardware & Base Software: This is such a specialised area and requires a local computer person to assist you with the set up of a system that can handle all the levels of a motel business. The most important area to set up first is the security of your system with proven anti-virus software and firewall protection. A lot of time and effort has gone into setting up computer systems in our demonstration motel Aston Hill Motor Lodge Port Macquarie. www.astonhill.com.au

Front & Back Office Software: There is free ATO software that will do the job for accounting extremely well. On the other hand I have seen other operations that are causing great distress due to the non-combatibility of the systems. It is so easy to keep the systems "simple" by obtaining the right information from those already operating proven systems within the Industry. We are striving to supply this information through www.motelinfo.com.au
