Outsourced hotel revenue management means I do the job of the revenue manager for you: I watch the comp set and pace every day, move rates and restrictions, manage the OTAs, forecast demand and report each month. You keep control of the hotel and see every decision.
What I plan around in Myrtle Beach: Summer beach season; Golf packages in spring and autumn; Bike weeks in May; Carolina Country Music Fest. Guests I price for: Drive-to families on 5 to 7 night stays, golf groups midweek in the shoulder seasons. Where I start: Summer weekly pricing, golf-group midweek strategies, and deep winter floors with reduced minimum stays.
With my five-star hotel background, I help Grand Strand hotels and condo resorts manage golf packages, group blocks for festivals and tournaments, rate fences between oceanfront and side-view rooms, and length-of-stay controls over July and the summer holidays, so peak weeks are never broken up by short stays.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Myrtle Beach.
I monitor your comp set and booking pace every day and move rates, rate plans and restrictions as demand shifts, room type by room type.
I manage the channel mix, parity and promotions together across Booking.com, Expedia, Agoda, Google and your own site, so cost of sale does not eat the gain.
On the higher plans I forecast demand by month and segment, build the annual budget and keep a 12-month pricing calendar tied to the market's real dates.
You get a monthly performance summary, a full ADR, occupancy and RevPAR report on Plus and Pro, and on Pro a monthly strategy call and a quarterly review.
“Myrtle Beach is a volume market with a sharp summer peak and a surprisingly useful golf season on either side. Families drive in for summer weeks, while golf groups book midweek in spring and autumn. Winter is deep, so the pricing job is about capturing summer fully and building enough shoulder revenue to carry the quiet months.”

Canadian and northern snowbirds book monthly stays, so I set a monthly rate card for oceanfront condos and keep nightly floors low enough to catch weekend visitors.
Can-Am Days, spring break, golf trips and the SOS Spring Safari bring different guests, so I price each block separately and add bike week rules in mid-May.
The summer weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest are the core of the year, so I set Saturday changeovers for family homes and keep oceanfront rates firm until the final days.
Golf groups, the World Amateur Handicap Championship and the SOS Fall Brawl fill midweeks and weekends, so I price for groups and shorten stays as summer families leave.
Thanksgiving and Christmas carry a few strong weeks, so I price those dates individually and then move to monthly offers for the early winter snowbirds.
Price June to August on weekly stays, with Memorial Day and July 4th weeks as the top bands.
Target golf groups with midweek pricing and 3 to 4-night stays in April, May, September and October.
Add bike weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest as date premiums.
Set deep but cost-covering winter floors with 2-night minimums and monthly options.
Price condos by oceanfront or ocean view against units in the same resort.
No revenue manager
The role left or was never hired, and rooms are priced between other duties.
Results have plateaued
RevPAR has stopped moving while the comp set keeps learning.
More than one property
You want one consistent method across a small group without building a department.
An owner or asset manager
You want decisions made by a specialist and reported in numbers you can check.
Room count, room types, channels and the systems you use. I confirm the plan level and the monthly price for your size.
I study your market, comp set and current rates, set up the strategy and connect your PMS or channel manager and pricing tool.
I adjust rates, restrictions and promotions as demand moves, and manage your OTAs on Plus and Pro.
Step 4
You get the report against budget and last year, and on Pro we meet monthly, so nothing I do is hidden.
Priced monthly by your hotel's size, not per room. Core, Plus and Pro, month to month, never a percentage of revenue. Hotels of 200 or more rooms, luxury properties and groups are quoted individually.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Core, up to 20 rooms | Managed pricing, run for you every day | From $650/mo |
| Plus | Pricing plus OTA, channel and segment optimization | By hotel size |
| Pro | Full revenue management with forecasting and a monthly strategy call | By hotel size |

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!

Busiest in Myrtle Beach: June to August, with Memorial Day and July 4th, and golf shoulder seasons in April to May and September to October. June to August: The summer weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest are the core of the year, so I set Saturday changeovers for family homes and keep oceanfront rates firm until the final days. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i raise floors and tighten minimum stays ahead of these windows and review pace every week, so the strongest dates never sell early at a shoulder rate.
For outsourced hotel revenue management, that is the first thing I check before taking on the pricing, because everything else sits on top of it. How the unit is described against others in the same tower: oceanfront, ocean view, floor level and balcony, since guests compare units side by side within one resort.
Add bike weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest as date premiums. Next: price condos by oceanfront or ocean view against units in the same resort. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Myrtle Beach property usually leaks the most.
For outsourced hotel revenue management, in the quiet months my job is to protect the floor, close gaps with length-of-stay and last-minute rules, and keep the property visible on every channel. Quietest in Myrtle Beach: December to February. November and December: Thanksgiving and Christmas carry a few strong weeks, so I price those dates individually and then move to monthly offers for the early winter snowbirds. January and February: Canadian and northern snowbirds book monthly stays, so I set a monthly rate card for oceanfront condos and keep nightly floors low enough to catch weekend visitors.
Oceanfront and non-ocean units priced too close together and winter minimum stays that stay at summer levels. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Myrtle Beach, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Myrtle Beach, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Myrtle Beach sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. March to May: Can-Am Days, spring break, golf trips and the SOS Spring Safari bring different guests, so I price each block separately and add bike week rules in mid-May.
North Myrtle Beach and Cherry Grove: Quieter family beaches and shag-dancing weekends; I price for weekly family stays in summer and add the SOS weekends as premiums. Central Myrtle Beach and the Boardwalk and Surfside Beach, Garden City and Murrells Inlet get their own treatment. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i set rates, comp sets and restrictions per area and per room or listing type, not as one citywide number.
Carolina Country Music Fest, Summer beach season and Golf packages in spring and autumn are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Myrtle Beach. November and December: Thanksgiving and Christmas carry a few strong weeks, so I price those dates individually and then move to monthly offers for the early winter snowbirds.

The scope of outsourced hotel revenue management is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Myrtle Beach I would start from June to August: The summer weeks and the Carolina Country Music Fest are the core of the year, so I set Saturday changeovers for family homes and keep oceanfront rates firm until the final days.
