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 Athens, Georgia. Athens, Georgia is a college town with a music scene and a fanbase that travels hard. Bulldogs home games at Sanford Stadium dominate the autumn, G-Day and graduation add spring peaks, and downtown venues like the Georgia Theatre and the 40 Watt keep weekends alive between them. Summer is quiet apart from AthFest. I price football by opponent, keep downtown and Five Points homes on separate curves, and plan summer floors carefully.
For an owner in Athens, Georgia, I start with the zoning position and the coming home schedule, then plan graduation, G-Day and music weekends around it. We agree how to handle the summer and the away-game weekends, which is where most homes here leave money on the table.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Athens, Georgia.
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.
Reviewing a hotel in Athens, Georgia, I often find home games priced sensibly while away weekends, the Jacksonville game and the summer are left on autopilot. I test whether the comp set reflects how far each hotel is from downtown on foot, and whether Classic Center groups are being accepted on dates that transient football or graduation demand would fill at higher rates.
My starting point is last autumn split into home, away and neutral-site weekends, because that comparison exposes most of the pricing gaps at a glance.
Spring break empties campus for a week, which I price down, while G-Day and the Twilight Criterium lift April weekends sharply.
Commencement fills hotels and rentals for a short window, so I open those dates early, hold two or three night minimums and avoid last-minute discounts.
Historic homes near campus with character; I aim them at alumni and graduation families, pricing for quality rather than squeezing in maximum guests.
My full Athens, Georgia calendar, areas, pricing moves and the mistakes I fix are on the revenue management consultant page for Athens, Georgia.
Performance has flattened

For hotel revenue management consulting, that is where my audit begins, because a finding here changes every recommendation after it. How easy it is to walk to Sanford Stadium or downtown, since game-day guests avoid driving into the centre and pay more for a home they can leave the car at.
Busiest in Athens, Georgia: Georgia Bulldogs home football weekends in the autumn, plus graduation and the spring G-Day game. August to November: Move-in, parents' weekends and Bulldogs football drive this run; I price each home game separately and release away-game weekends at normal autumn rates. March to April: Spring break empties campus for a week, which I price down, while G-Day and the Twilight Criterium lift April weekends sharply. 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.
Home-game premiums tiered by opponent, graduation pricing, and summer floors. For hotel revenue management consulting, I check every recommendation against the Athens, Georgia calendar before I make it. June to July: AthFest and orientation help, but most weeks are quiet; I target music fans and Atlanta weekenders with shorter stays and accept softer weekdays.

Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number.
