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 Little Rock. Hot Springs revolves around Oaklawn racing, which peaks in spring with the Arkansas Derby, and the national park's spa town. Lake Hamilton adds summer lake houses, while Little Rock brings business and Clinton Library visitors. After the Oaklawn meet ends, demand softens.
For Little Rock and Hot Springs owners I separate racing, spa-town, lake and city demand, then build a calendar that fits the home's real market. The plan protects Arkansas Derby and racing weekends, lifts lake summers and gives the quieter late-summer months a realistic floor.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Little Rock.
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.

The Oaklawn meet is already running, so Friday to Sunday racing weekends carry Hot Springs. I price them steadily and keep weekdays low for spa-town couples.
The Bridge Street St. Patrick's Day parade and Arkansas Derby weekend are the year's top dates. I price both early with two-night minimums and keep rates firm until race week.
Racing ends and Lake Hamilton takes over. I move lake-house rates up for summer weekends and soften downtown Hot Springs homes as the track crowd leaves.
Heat and school schedules slow leisure trips. I lower floors, allow single nights and focus on Little Rock business travel and visiting families.
The Documentary Film Festival and autumn colour lift October, and Garvan Woodland Gardens holiday lights fill December evenings. I price those weekends up and keep the rest moderate.
Price the Oaklawn meet, with Arkansas Derby weekend highest.
Use 2-night weekend minimums in spa-town homes.
Price Lake Hamilton homes for summer with lakefront premiums.
Set weekday rates for Little Rock business travel.
Lower August 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.

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!
