Hotel revenue management consulting is an independent review followed by a plan. I look at 12 to 24 months of your own data, shop your comp set, and find where rates, restrictions or channels are costing you money. Unlike outsourcing, I do not make your daily decisions; your team does, with a better plan.
This is my view of Adirondacks. The Adirondacks sell summer lake weeks, autumn colour and winter sports. Lake Placid also hosts major events, from Ironman in July to international winter competitions, and the village has tightened short-term rental permits. Lake George behaves like a classic summer market. I price the two areas separately and plan around the event calendar.
For Adirondack owners I check the permit and town rules first, then decide whether the home sells lake weeks, event weekends or winter sports. The plan sets prices and minimums for each season, from Americade and Ironman to foliage and ski weeks, plus a realistic approach to mud season.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Adirondacks.
A review of the last 12 to 24 months: pricing decisions, rate architecture, restrictions, channel mix and cost, comp-set position, pace and the systems behind them, with every gap ranked by value.
Base rates and floors per room type, BAR levels tied to occupancy and pace, seasonal and event calendars and restrictions, written as a 12-month calendar your team can run.
Which channels to sell on, at what rate and with which promotions, so the mix protects margin: OTAs, corporate, wholesale, metasearch and direct.
A demand forecast, an annual budget, weekly pace reports and a workshop for your team, plus honest advice on revenue systems before you sign for one.

Whiteface weekends, Presidents' week and winter sports competitions at the Olympic venues carry Lake Placid, so I hold those dates firmly and let ordinary midweek nights flex for couples.
Mud season and black-fly weeks keep visitors away, so I allow single nights, lower floors and pitch the quiet to remote workers and anglers.
Americade fills Lake George early in the month, so I price that week as an event, then lift the rest of June gradually toward the summer rate.
Lakefront homes move to Saturday-to-Saturday weeks, and the Ironman week in Lake Placid gets its own minimum and rate, opened as soon as the race date is confirmed.
Foliage weekends sell fast to New York City and Montréal couples, so I keep weekends near summer levels and only discount weekdays once the colour passes.
Hunting season and Thanksgiving bring a few busy dates, then the holidays lift sharply, so I price Christmas week as a winter peak with a long minimum.
Run July and August on weekly stays for lake homes.
Price Ironman Lake Placid and major winter sports events as premiums.
Price October foliage weekends with 2-night minimums.
Confirm local permit status, especially inside Lake Placid village.
Set April, May and November floors with short stays.
Performance has flattened
RevPAR is stuck while the market around you moves on.
Opening, renovating or rebranding
A new positioning needs a pricing and distribution strategy built from scratch.
An owner wants a second opinion
You need the operator's numbers checked by someone outside the hotel.
You have a team but want a better plan
Someone prices today and wants an audit, a calendar and training.
Thirty minutes on your property, your market and where you think revenue leaks. I scope the work and confirm the price before starting.
With read-only access to your PMS, channel manager and extranets I analyse the data, shop your comp set and talk to whoever sets rates today.
A written report and a working session: the gaps ranked by value, the strategy to close them and a 12-month calendar.
Step 4
I can set the strategy up in your systems, train your team and check in monthly, or run it for you as outsourced management.
Every engagement is fixed-scope and fixed-price. After a free discovery call you get the scope and the price in writing before any work starts. Training days and monthly check-ins are quoted separately.

Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating.

Strong work!

Alaa was fantastic, going through each of the properties I had and gave great advice and actioned a great game plan. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to enhance their pricing strategy on PriceLabs. Alaa's experience goes beyond this which makes it very beneficial to have this holistic approach.
Property manager
Alaa helped me optimize my PriceLabs settings for my Airbnb listing and was very helpful and patient with answering any questions I had. He was also able to clearly explain why he made the changes he made, and it was obvious that he had a lot of experience in this field. I will definitely be back!

For hotel revenue management consulting, that is where my audit begins, because a finding here changes every recommendation after it. Whether summer pricing actually uses weekly stays for lake homes, because families from the Northeast plan their whole holiday around a single week at the lake.
Busiest in Adirondacks: July to August, October foliage, and winter ski and skating weeks. September to October: Foliage weekends sell fast to New York City and Montréal couples, so I keep weekends near summer levels and only discount weekdays once the colour passes. January to March: Whiteface weekends, Presidents' week and winter sports competitions at the Olympic venues carry Lake Placid, so I hold those dates firmly and let ordinary midweek nights flex for couples. For hotel revenue management consulting, my audit tests whether your current rates and restrictions capture these windows, and the 12-month calendar I hand over sets them in advance.
Summer weekly pricing, foliage and event premiums, and mud-season floors. For hotel revenue management consulting, I check every recommendation against the Adirondacks calendar before I make it. July to August: Lakefront homes move to Saturday-to-Saturday weeks, and the Ironman week in Lake Placid gets its own minimum and rate, opened as soon as the race date is confirmed.
The Adirondacks sell summer lake weeks, autumn colour and winter sports. Lake Placid also hosts major events, from Ironman in July to international winter competitions, and the village has tightened short-term rental permits. That is the view I bring to hotel revenue management consulting in Adirondacks.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Adirondacks the first gains from hotel revenue management consulting usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: price Ironman Lake Placid and major winter sports events as premiums. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
Adirondacks sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. April to May: Mud season and black-fly weeks keep visitors away, so I allow single nights, lower floors and pitch the quiet to remote workers and anglers. For hotel revenue management consulting in Adirondacks, my distribution review covers each channel's cost, contribution and rate position, then recommends a mix.
For hotel revenue management consulting, i begin with 12 to 24 months of your own data, so the first findings are about your property in Adirondacks, not the city. Price October foliage weekends with 2-night minimums. Next: set April, May and November floors with short stays.
Saranac Lake and Tupper Lake: Quieter towns that sell canoeing and the Saranac Lake Winter Carnival; I price them below Lake Placid but lift the Carnival weekend and peak foliage. Lake Placid village and Mirror Lake and Lake George village and the east shore get their own treatment. For hotel revenue management consulting, i review your comp set and rate position for your own part of Adirondacks, not the market average.
