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 Lake Geneva. Lake Geneva is a weekend market for Chicago and Milwaukee, two hours away. Summer boating and the shore path fill June to August, the holidays add a winter peak, and Winterfest brings the snow sculpting championship in February. Midweek is soft outside summer.
For Lake Geneva owners I first check what stays the local rules permit, then look at how weekends and midweek are balanced across the year. The plan we build protects summer and Winterfest, lifts autumn wedding weekends and gives the spring and November lulls sensible targets.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Lake Geneva.
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.

Winterfest weekend in early February is the winter spike. I price it well above ordinary January Saturdays and keep the rest of winter on soft weekend rates for Chicago couples.
The shore path is quiet and the boats are still out of the water. I cut midweek rates, allow single nights Sunday to Thursday and keep Saturdays fair rather than ambitious.
Friday-to-Sunday minimums on every summer weekend, three nights over July 4th, and the Venetian Festival in August priced as one of the year's top weekends.
Weddings, golf and autumn colour keep weekends strong. I hold Saturday rates near summer levels and use midweek offers for remote workers and small corporate retreats.
Holiday market weekends and the week between Christmas and New Year are worth pricing up. Other November dates are soft, so I keep them flexible and cheap.
Use Friday-to-Sunday minimums on summer weekends.
Price the Venetian Festival in August as a premium.
Add Winterfest weekend in February.
Price December holiday weekends.
Discount midweek in the shoulders.
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.

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 home has pier rights or lake frontage, or only shore path access, since Chicago families pay very differently for those three situations.
Busiest in Lake Geneva: June to August on the lakefront and the December holidays, with the US National Snow Sculpting Championship in early February. June to August: Friday-to-Sunday minimums on every summer weekend, three nights over July 4th, and the Venetian Festival in August priced as one of the year's top weekends. September to October: Weddings, golf and autumn colour keep weekends strong. I hold Saturday rates near summer levels and use midweek offers for remote workers and small corporate retreats. 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.
Weekend-driven pricing for a two-hour Chicago drive market, Friday-to-Sunday minimums, and holiday and festival premiums set against soft midweek shoulders.

Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Lake Geneva the first gains from hotel revenue management consulting usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: price the Venetian Festival in August as a premium. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.

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 Lake Geneva, not the city. Add Winterfest weekend in February. Next: discount midweek in the shoulders.
Williams Bay and Lake Delavan: Williams Bay has its beach and Yerkes Observatory, while nearby Delavan Lake is cheaper. I price both as value options with stronger midweek offers. City of Lake Geneva and Fontana-on-Geneva Lake get their own treatment.
