Report Writing - How to Format a Business Report

Introduction

Report writing is a time consuming business so it is a great shame if, having devoted all that time to writing your report, the quality is such that hardly anyone can be bothered to read it. Quite frankly, most report readers do not actually read all the report; they are too short of time. You might as well know it and accept it -- that is normal. They only read the parts that interest them. Frequently these are the summary, the conclusions and recommendations.

Of course, some readers do need all the details you so carefully included, they are specialists, but most do not. Most readers just need two things: that the information they want is where they expect it to be so they can find it, and that it is written clearly so that they can understand it.

It is similar to reading a newspaper. You expect the news headlines to be on the front page; the sports coverage to be at the back; the TV listings on page whatever and the editorial comment in the middle. If what you want is not in its usual place then you have to hunt for it and you may get irritated. So it is with a report.

There is a convention as to what goes where. Stick with the convention and please your readers. Break the convention and people may get slightly irritated - and bin your report.

So what is that convention, the standard format?

Standard Sections


Title Section. In a short report this may simply be the front cover. In a long one it could also include Terms of Reference, Table of Contents and so on.

Summary. Give a clear and very concise account of the main points, main conclusions and main recommendations. Keep it very short, a few percent of the total length. Some people, especially senior managers, may not read anything else so write as if it were a stand-alone document. It isn't but for some people it might as well be. Keep it brief and free from jargon so that anyone can understand it and get the main points. Write it last, but do not copy and paste from the report itself; that rarely works well.

Introduction. This is the first part of the report proper. Use it to paint the background to 'the problem' and to show the reader why the report is important to them. Give your terms of reference (if not in the Title Section) and explain how the details that follow are arranged. Write it in plain English.

Main Body. This is the heart of your report, the facts. It will probably have several sections or sub-sections each with its own subtitle. It is unique to your report and will describe what you discovered about 'the problem'.

These sections are most likely to be read by experts so you can use some appropriate jargon but explain it as you introduce it. Arrange the information logically, normally putting things in order of priority -- most important first. In fact, follow that advice in every section of your report.

You may choose to include a Discussion in which you explain the significance of your findings.

Conclusions. Present the logical conclusions of your investigation of 'the problem'. Bring it all together and maybe offer options for the way forward. Many people will read this section. Write it in plain English. If you have included a discussion then this section may be quite short.

Recommendations. What do you suggest should be done? Don't be shy; you did the work so state your recommendations in order of priority, and in plain English.

Appendices. Put the heavy details here, the information that only specialists are likely to want to see. As a guide, if some detail is essential to your argument then include it in the main body, if it merely supports the argument then it could go in an appendix.

Conclusions and Recommendations

In conclusion, remember that readers expect certain information to be in certain places. They do not expect to hunt for what they want and the harder you make it for them the more likely they are to toss you report to one side and ignore it. So what should you do?

1. Follow the generally accepted format for a report: Summary, Introduction, Main Body, Conclusions, Recommendations and Appendices.
2. Organise your information in each section in a logical fashion with the reader in mind, usually putting things in order of priority - most important first.

Good luck with your report writing!

How to Start Your Own Hotel Or a Resort

Starting or Building a Hotel or a Resort is different from other Real Estate Development, due to the amount of capital investment involved, time required to complete the project and the number of specialties and processes involved.

Hotel Development involves careful planning and coordination of various aspects, ranging from the Selection of Land (which can either be purchased or leased) to the final Grand Opening of the Hotel.

Conducting Market Feasibility study and projecting the financial viability of the project is very important to ensure if the project can really generate expected return on investment (ROI).

Formulation a well prepared Business Plan plays a vital role in giving the right direction to the business and also in convincing potential investors, to raise finance from different sources, for Hotel Development, Construction and Operations.

Another important aspect is to contemplate, if the hotel can be run and managed on its own, under its own banner, or is it beneficial to have a Franchise or a Hotel Management Agreement/Contract with a reputed Hotel Operator and the benefits/drawbacks associated with it.

This is followed by getting the whole Project Team on board and formulating and developing a concept, which uniquely identifies the property in the target market and to finally get the preliminary sketches and drawings done for the project.

Hotel Development and Construction process involves various Approvals, Permits and Licences at various stages of the project: before, during and after Hotel Development and Construction.

Next step is designing the various Front and back house areas of the proposed Hotel, including Hotel Exterior, Hotel Entrance, Lobby, Guest Floors and Guest Rooms, Food and Beverage Outlets, Kitchen, Laundry, Technical Areas, Swimming Pool, Spa and other Front and Back of House Areas.

That's only half way through, which is followed by Hotel Project Cost Estimate, to stay with in Budgets, which subsequently leads to Hotel Construction Scheduling and Planning, to the actual Hotel Project Management.

The whole construction process ends with the handing over of the Project to the Operations Team from the Projects Team, after the clearance of Punch /Snag List.

Selection, Procurement and Installation of various Furniture's, Fixtures and Equipment (FF&E) for various departments of the hotel is very important too.

Another important aspect is to apply for and get the relevant Star Classification for the Hotel.

Then, its time for the Hotel Pre Opening process of actually getting the Hotel Management and the Operations Team on board.

Hotel Pre opening process involves conducting Staff Training, starting the Marketing and Promotional activity of the Hotel, Formulating Systems and Procedures, Conducting Trial runs and to get all the Operational Supplies and Equipment (OS&E) ready, for smooth operations.

Then, finally, there you go: Hotel Soft Opening before the actual Grand Opening. Soft opening is always recommended before the actual Grand opening, to correct any deficiencies in the systems and processes, before the hotel finally opens, fully.

Well, that's only when the real challenge starts for the Hotel Owners and the Management, to rightly position the hotel in the target market, create product awareness, setting and maintaining standards, and finally the all important aspect of realizing the expected return on investment through good Gross Operating Profit (GOP), by the right mix of good occupancy and high average daily rate (ADR) and at the same time optimizing the revenue from Food and Beverage Outlets, Conference, Weddings and Banquets.

This is just a gist of the whole process. Detailed information on Hotel Development, Construction and Project Management can be found at:

Beach Theme Bedroom

Using accessories is a fun way to accent your bedroom for a beach theme. You will find that you can dramatically change the look of your room simply by making small changes with the accents. See how easy it is to get a designer beach theme look in your bedroom without shelling out the big bucks.

If you're not sure exactly what you want in your beach desing, try looking in decorating magazines and books to get a flavor of the accessories you would like to see in your bedroom. For keeping the beach look consistent, you'll have to limit yourself to only purchase the accessories that match your theme.

Colors for a beach décor should make you think of the beach. Light and breezy with lots of blues and maybe even some yellows. If you prefer neutral tones think of the beige of beach sand and the color of shells.

Incorporate sea shells, ocean prints, and other seaside accents that will help bring out the beach in your bedroom. You should group your accessories in odd numbers. It always looks nice if your groupings consists of tall and short accessories mixed together. An interesting group of accents might consists of some shells aside a nice beach theme frame and a taller lamp.

Use beach theme prints and photos on your walls to establish the theme throughout your bedroom. Many people do not know how to correctly hang a piece of art and this makes a big difference to the visual appeal. Whether you are hanging a large oil painting or a small print, the middle of the piece should be at eye level. If you have a large piece of artwork you can try using it as a headboard. When hanging prints or photos behind a table, always place them 7 to 10 inches above the table. Hang pictures in circular, triangular, or rectangular geometric groupings to add interest.

When accessorizing your bedroom don't forget about the lighting. When purchasing lamps make sure to buy ones that go with the beach theme you want to create. For beach style lighting try using clear glass lamps filled with shells or figural light house shaped lamps.

Area rugs can define a space and pull your bedroom together. Rest furniture completely on the rug for a warmer effect. Only use rugs that go with your beach accessories.

Using pillows can add interest as well. Use several at the top of the bed and vary the texture colors and patterns while still keeping the color and theme within your overall bedroom design.

Don't think you have to buy everything for your bedroom at once. Shop around to find the perfect accessories to match the beach theme in your bedroom. You can find bargains at consignment stores flea markets and yard sales.

Day Spa Essential Facts

We all experience stress from different sources. May it be from work or right at home, one can experience unavoidable stress. This is probably the reason why day spas have been popular easily accessible venues for relaxation and distressing.

Day spas are not newly born babies of this modern era. In fact spas have already been around since the early days of the ancient civilizations. The spas of today offer various kinds of spa treatments and services, while the ancient spas are focused on using water as the main element for body treatments. This we could see and read even from the verses of the Roman Catholic Bible. Ancient people such as Romans, Greeks, Minoans, Egyptians and Mesopotamians participate in social and public bathing to seek diseases and pain relief.

Today, day spas still continue to serve as venues and locations for healing simple body aches and pains and for nourishing a person's entire body, mind and spirit. Different spas offer a diverse range of services depending on the size of the establishment. A small local spa may only be able to offer simple and basic spa treatments like massage, manicure and pedicure. But a large and commercially popular day spa and fitness club may offer a full range of services from the traditional treatments to the most sophisticated beauty and health procedures.

There are some spas who provide services which are focused on a certain cultural treatments like Japanese Shiatsu, European facials, salt scrubs, Yoga, Tai Chi and Thai Massage. One could really not get enough of what these spas can offer because day spas themselves is such a broad industry. Basically, according to an international association of day spas, there are ten domains or fields related to this industry:

  • First is the Waters, which is the original focus of spas as seen from the ancient culture's version of public and social bathing.

  • Second is the proper provision of foods and strict compliance to healthy diets suggested to spa goers to maintain their bodies' nourishment and nutrition.

  • Third is the correct and coordinated movement of the body in vital exercise routines to keep the body fit.

  • Fourth is Massaging the Body to ease stressed muscles and joints.

  • Fifth is to keep the whole body physically, mentally and spiritually well.

  • Sixth is to make oneself look and feel attractive through approved and tested Beauty products and aesthetic processes.

  • Seventh is to keep one's self in balance and harmony with the environment.

  • Eighth is the day spas role in the society and culture.

  • Ninth is to implement proper management and operations of the establishment to promote the safety and security of clients.

  • Lastly, is for the day spas to keep up with the changing of time and advancements in the business.

What remains important to know is that they provide every individual a place and opportunity to slacken off from the strain of everyday tension even for an hour or a day. Therefore spa management and staff must see to the needs of their clients and make the time they spent inside the spas worthwhile and beneficial to them.

Luxury Villas And Spa Retreats In Bali

A vacation is the time to treat yourself to a little luxury and pampering. On the magical Indonesian island of Bali you can indulge in plenty of special treatment by staying in Bali luxury villas and attending a spa retreat during your stay. Bali is becoming known as the spa capital of Asia, with spa retreats popping up in beachside areas, mountainous regions or in locations with idyllic river and stream vistas. Many major hotels and resorts feature spas and the smaller boutique resorts often offer massages, with access to spa retreats of various kinds nearby.

Body massage is part of the culture in Bali and most Balinese men have regular massages. The true Balinese massage, known as kerok, is quite a bruising event and quite unlike the massages experienced in western culture. Spas in Bali now use a modified version of their traditional massage which involves deep and penetrating movements using the heels of the hands, the fingers and elbows. These massages are also offered by Balinese women on beaches all over Bali.

A spa retreat offers a restful environment focusing on more than massage. The specialist treatment offered in some Bali luxury villas is akin to the treatment offered in a dedicated spa retreat. The experience of staying at a luxury villa in Bali is relaxing, peaceful and serene, giving you a chance to unwind from the day to day stresses of life in the western culture.

If your luxury villa doesn't have a spa retreat on site, they will certainly be able to arrange for you to have a massage in your villa. If you require more spa treatments, they can be easily arranged by your hosts at a nearby retreat.

Spa retreats can rejuvenate your body, mind and spirit. Some retreats are designed to focus on the needs of women, some are fitness oriented and others offer a wide range of options depending on the need. It's a great opportunity to energise your body, arouse your senses and calm your mind - just what you need on a holiday before returning to the stressful world of work.

Spending your holiday at Bali luxury villas is another great way to give your body, mind and spirit the break you deserve. The elegant and well appointed surroundings will help you to feel calm and relaxed. You'll have private chefs and housekeeping staff to meet your needs and your spacious surroundings indoors and out will give you plenty of breathing space when you return from sightseeing trips to places like the Bali Bird Parkor surfing at Brawa Beach.

You'll be surprised at how refreshed you can feel after only a week spent living in luxury and you'll soon be planning another visit.




The villas are professionally managed to the highest standards with trained staff to attend guests' needs, including food and beverage requirements upon request, daily villa cleaning, transportation, tours and sightseeing.

Are Spa Treatments Worth The Expense?

When some hear the words "spa treatments," they think of spending hundreds, or even thousands, of dollars to go away to some fancy resort where they will be pampered for a week, or a weekend.

But you can spend an afternoon at a local day spa, and enjoy one or more of a variety of treatments for a very reasonable price.

The question to ask is whether you think the benefits of a treatment is worth the cost.

Massages

Massages are almost synonymous with spas. You can't think of one without thinking of the other.

A massage can cost between $75 and $300. The price can depend on many different factors, like:


  • How long the massage lasts.

  • The kind it is. (A deep tissue massage costs more than a basic massage).

  • The kinds of supplies that are used. (Hot stones or aromatherapy oils can add to the price).

Massages have many benefits. They can help you relax and de-stress. They can help relieve aches and pains, especially if you suffer from muscle cramps or arthritis. They can also help improve circulation.

Facials

Facials are another well-known spa treatment.

A facial can cost anywhere from $50 (for a basic facial) to $300. In fact, in some places, you will be able to get a facial treatment for even less.

Facials promote healthy skin. A good facial exfoliates, removing dead skin cells. It also moisturizes and hydrates the skin. Some find that facials help with skin problems, like frequent breakouts. And, like a massage, a facial can be very relaxing.

Manicures

Sometimes, something as simple, and affordable, as a manicure or pedicure can help make you feel pampered and more relaxed.

At most spas, you can get a manicure for between $15 and $50. While you might pay the same, or a little less, at a manicure salon, a spa has a more relaxing ambiance. A spa manicure or pedicure also often includes a few more steps, like a hand massage, or a foot scrub. By the time you leave, you will have baby-soft hands, relaxed feet, and perfectly polished nails.

Getting a manicure or pedicure at a day spa once a week, or even just once a month, can make a world of difference.

So, are spa treatments worth the expense? Anyone who has ever had a good one will tell you that they are. And you don't have to spend a small fortune to enjoy the many benefits of a good massage, facial, manicure or pedicure.

Sitges - Spain's Gay Resort

Just thirty-five kilometers south of Barcelona is the port town of Sitges, which has become recognized throughout Europe as the perfect gay resort for summer relaxation and fun. During the months of July and August the tourist visitors are almost exclusively gay and the town switches into hetero-friendly mode.
This historic seaport dates back to the tenth century when a small castle was built over the ruins of an old Iberian settlement. During the following years, houses were built near the castle and Sitges was born.

In the middle ages, Sitges used to be the only port town on the coast from Barcelona to Tarragon. The town's main industries were its vineyards and the commercial activities with other ports. Now tourism and construction are the major employers in Sitges and the charm of this small town on the coast is irresistible. Nestled on the hillside between the mountains and the ocean it's easy to understand how the gay community fell in love with the cobbled streets, historic buildings, beautiful beaches and of course the bars and restaurants.

Sitges boasts on average 300 days of sunshine each year, which makes for the longest summer weather anywhere in Spain. The local resident population is approximately twenty thousand, many of whom are artists, sculptors and painters or employed in the service industry and they tend to welcome the gay community as potential customers. Santiago Rusiñol the famous Spanish artist moved to Sitges in 1891 and turned it into a meeting point for artists and intellectuals, giving it the bohemian air that persists today.

With almost thirty gay bars and clubs, plus twenty gay or gay-friendly restaurants, many retail stores, gay-owned accommodations, a couple of saunas and more, the local gay map would rival that of a major city. The main street is known as "Sin Street" and leads from the beach into the centre of town. The Parrots Bar has two patios-one on each side of this street-and every day starting around 4PM it's the place to sit with a cocktail and people watch.

Although seafood is extremely popular and local Catalan cuisine can be found in every restaurant, there is a complete selection of international menus to satisfy every diner's tastes. Many places are located on the boulevard beside the ocean with relaxing views of the boardwalk and Mediterranean Sea.

There is a very large gay beach centrally located which is always busy and at the height of the summer season the locale for making new friends and acquaintances. Although the locals recommend staying out of the sun from 1PM to 4PM, it doesn't seem to stop the gay tourists.

With a train service from Barcelona that runs every thirty minutes at a cost of less than ten dollars it is easy to spend a day or an extended holiday in this gay seaside paradise. However, it's important to make your hotel reservations far in advance for a vacation at any time of the year to avoid disappointment.
Enjoy this Spanish gay resort and pack plenty of suntan lotion to look your best in the bars at nighttime.

This laid-back surfer town is packed with hotels, restaurants and attractions, making it a great choice for any budget.
