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 Guadalajara. Guadalajara is a business and convention city. Expo Guadalajara events and the FIL book fair fill midweeks, tech travel is growing and weekends sell to domestic visitors heading to Tequila and Chapala. Business visitors usually want quick access to the Expo and business districts, while weekend guests want the historic centre, so location strategy depends on which guest a home suits best.
For a Guadalajara apartment or small portfolio, I map your property against the Expo and FIL calendar, check whether you can serve corporate guests properly with invoices, and build separate weekday and weekend rate cards so convention weeks and quiet weekends are priced with intent.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Guadalajara.
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.

Business demand returns after the holidays, so I hold weekday corporate rates steady and use weekend offers for domestic visitors heading out to Tequila or Lake Chapala.
Semana Santa brings domestic leisure, and spring trade shows fill Expo Guadalajara, so I check the Expo calendar line by line and price each show week on its own.
Afternoon rains slow leisure demand, so I turn to monthly stays for tech relocations and interns in Zapopan while keeping a floor that protects the nightly rate.
The Fiestas de Octubre run all month and draw domestic families and groups; I raise weekends across the month and keep two night minimums on Fridays.
FIL week is my strongest premium in the city, with a three night minimum, and then December holiday visitors keep rates firm until the New Year.
Price FIL and major Expo conventions as premiums.
Set weekday corporate rates.

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. He not only made savvy adjustments to my dynamic pricing strategy, but also helped me to understand the reasoning behind his methods, granting me a better understanding of the PriceLabs platform. Strong work!
Airbnb host
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 the listing offers invoices that Mexican companies can use for expenses, since corporate guests often filter out hosts who cannot provide proper billing.
Busiest in Guadalajara: October to November (Fiestas de Octubre, Guadalajara Book Fair), Expo events, and the December holidays. Late November to December: FIL week is my strongest premium in the city, with a three night minimum, and then December holiday visitors keep rates firm until the New Year. April to May: Semana Santa brings domestic leisure, and spring trade shows fill Expo Guadalajara, so I check the Expo calendar line by line and price each show week on its own. 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.
Convention premiums and corporate midweek rate cards. For hotel revenue management consulting, I check every recommendation against the Guadalajara calendar before I make it. October: The Fiestas de Octubre run all month and draw domestic families and groups; I raise weekends across the month and keep two night minimums on Fridays.
Expo Guadalajara events and the FIL book fair fill midweeks, tech travel is growing and weekends sell to domestic visitors heading to Tequila and Chapala. Business visitors usually want quick access to the Expo and business districts, while weekend guests want the historic centre, so location strategy depends on which guest a home suits best. That is the view I bring to hotel revenue management consulting in Guadalajara.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Guadalajara the first gains from hotel revenue management consulting usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: set weekday corporate rates. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
Guadalajara sells mostly through Airbnb and Booking.com. June to September: Afternoon rains slow leisure demand, so I turn to monthly stays for tech relocations and interns in Zapopan while keeping a floor that protects the nightly rate. For hotel revenue management consulting in Guadalajara, 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 Guadalajara, not the city. Price weekends for domestic leisure. Next: lower rainy-season floors.
Tlaquepaque: A craft and pottery town with a strong weekend scene; I price it for leisure weekends and festival dates rather than chasing weekday business demand. Chapultepec and Americana and Providencia and Andares, Zapopan get their own treatment. For hotel revenue management consulting, i review your comp set and rate position for your own part of Guadalajara, not the market average.
