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 Hocking Hills. Hocking Hills is a romantic cabin market for Ohio couples. Weekends fill easily, especially in October foliage and around the January Winter Hike, while midweek is the challenge. Treehouses, hot tubs and privacy decide most bookings. I focus on weekend protection and midweek gap filling.
If you own a cabin or treehouse in Hocking Hills, I review how your weekends, weekdays and October dates are priced, compare you with the cabins couples really choose between, and build a plan with you that keeps weekends strong and weekdays moving.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Hocking Hills.
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.

Around the Winter Hike weekend I set a two-night minimum, then price the other January weekends lower so couples still see value in a cold, quiet cabin.
Valentine's weekend is one of the strongest of the winter; I price it as a premium and use midweek discounts for the rest of the month.
Mud season and grey weather keep couples home; I lower floors, allow single nights midweek and keep weekend minimums light until the trails dry out.
Waterfall weekends and summer bring steady demand, so I price weekends firmly and let gap rules fill the odd nights between couples.
Leaf season is the busiest month; I open October weekends early, refuse lone Saturdays and keep hot-tub cabins priced clearly above standard ones.
After the leaves fall, I step floors down and lift Thanksgiving and Christmas weeks for families wanting a quiet cabin holiday.
Price October foliage weekends as the top band with 2-night minimums.
Add the January Winter Hike weekend as a premium.
Price hot tubs, treehouses and privacy as clear tiers.
Use midweek discounts and gap rules between weekend stays.
Lower March and early April floors.
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.

For hotel revenue management consulting, that is where my audit begins, because a finding here changes every recommendation after it. Whether the drive time to Old Man's Cave and Ash Cave is clear, since hikers plan their weekend around the main trailheads and their parking lots.
Busiest in Hocking Hills: May to October, peaking with October foliage at Old Man's Cave and the January Winter Hike, plus summer waterfall weekends. October: Leaf season is the busiest month; I open October weekends early, refuse lone Saturdays and keep hot-tub cabins priced clearly above standard ones. January: Around the Winter Hike weekend I set a two-night minimum, then price the other January weekends lower so couples still see value in a cold, quiet cabin. 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.
Midweek gap filling between weekend-heavy demand, hot-tub and treehouse premiums, and two-night minimums that protect the calendar during leaf season. For hotel revenue management consulting, I check every recommendation against the Hocking Hills calendar before I make it. Mid-April to September: Waterfall weekends and summer bring steady demand, so I price weekends firmly and let gap rules fill the odd nights between couples.
