GM Monday morning brief (n8n recipe)

General managern8n~2–3 hoursHotelsRestaurants

Published October 29, 2026 · OpsRecipes are tested patterns, not vendor endorsements.

Outcome: One email with last week's key numbers, what changed, and the one thing to act on.

What you need

  • Scheduled report emails from PMS/POS/labor systems (CSV or Excel)
  • n8n
  • LLM node
  • Google Sheets for history

Steps

  1. Email Trigger (IMAP): catch the scheduled report emails into a dedicated mailbox.
  2. Extract From File node: parse the CSV/XLSX attachments.
  3. Code node: compute week-over-week change for 5–8 KPIs (occupancy, ADR, RevPAR or covers, labor %, review score).
  4. Google Sheets: append the week to a history tab.
  5. LLM node: 'Write a 120-word brief: 3 biggest moves, likely causes based only on these numbers, one recommended action.'
  6. Send Email node: to the GM at 7:00 AM Monday.
Watch out: Tell the LLM to only use the numbers provided; have the brief show the raw table underneath.
