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 Kansas City. Kansas City has become a football town in rental terms. Chiefs home games fill homes across the city, and playoff runs can extend the season into January. Conventions, barbecue and jazz tourism add steady demand. The city restricts non-owner-occupied short-term rentals in residential areas, so I check eligibility before pricing.
For Kansas City owners I start with eligibility on either side of State Line, then build a calendar that respects the Chiefs schedule, convention weeks and summer concerts. You get a clear plan for each season and a way to react fast when playoff dates appear.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Kansas City.
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.

If the Chiefs host playoff games, I price those dates as soon as the bracket is set, with two-night minimums. Without them, January drops to winter floors quickly.
Floors stay low, but I lift Thursday to Saturday around the Big 12 basketball tournament downtown and any NCAA dates the city hosts.
Royals homestands, concerts at Arrowhead and the T-Mobile Center, and summer festivals carry weekends. I price event by event, not month by month.
Chiefs home weekends are the year's best nights. I load the schedule the day it is released and add the American Royal and Plaza lighting weekend in between.
Price Chiefs home games as date premiums with 2-night minimums, and prepare for playoff dates.
Add Royals home stands and major concerts for nearby homes.
Set midweek rates for conventions and corporate travel.
Lower February and March floors.
Confirm permit eligibility for the property type and zone.
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.
