- Document post-event insights, including actual demand, booking trends, and lessons learned.
- Build a historical reference library to sharpen future forecasts.
- Monitor official UGA calendars, athletic schedules, and Greek Life updates, alongside informal signals from student and community channels.
- Prepare demand forecasts monthly and quarterly, issuing early warnings for high-demand periods 8-12 weeks out.
- Create high-impact weekend briefs 2-6 weeks ahead and an annual demand intelligence summary.
- Provide insights that help ownership and management understand which guest groups drive the most demand, directly shaping pricing, availability, and marketing at the Bell Hotel.
- Maintain documentation to ensure each cycle builds on the previous one for smooth handoffs.
