We do LOOOOOVVVEEEE our acronyms, no? ADR, RevPAR and to anyone outside the industry it feels like we are speaking in tongue. Well, we kinda are.

We do LOOOOOVVVEEEE our acronyms, no? ADR, RevPAR and to anyone outside the industry it feels like we are speaking in tongue. Well, we kinda are.

But let's put it to the test. All modelled around the how much wood could .... with the little help of Chatty.

Let’s see if you can get through these without tripping over your own words. Ready? Go!

Revenue Management

How much RevPAR could a revenue pro raise if a revenue pro could raise RevPAR?

If revenue, rooms, and rates could rapidly rise, how many revenue-raising rooms with right rates would rise?

Pricing

If a price can be too high, too low, or just right, what price should a price-proud property price?

Minimum Length of Stay (MLOS)

If a minimum stay must stay a minimum, how minimal must the minimum stay stay?

Forecasting

If forecasts can be false or fine-tuned, how finely must a forecast be fixed to feel factually firm?

Budgeting

If budgeting is based on best-guess business, how bad must a budget be before it’s basically broken?

Rate Parity

If rates must remain right and revenue right-sized, how rightly must rates remain to remain rightly revenue-rich?

Love,
Fabi

It is estimated that 80+% of hotels do not use sophisticated revenue tools. Not sure about you but I think that’s a problem. It’s time we tried a different approach. We believe everyone deserves the chance to a fair fight. Regardless if they have 20 rooms or 200, branded or independent, primary or secondary location, have dedicated revenue managers or are a one man show. We believe that hiding behind the “users” in-ability is not good enough.
