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 Norfolk. Norfolk and the Suffolk coast are London's genteel seaside. Southwold, Aldeburgh and Wells sell week-long summer stays and long weekends, with Latitude and the Aldeburgh Festival adding event weeks. Christmas and shooting season help winter. I layer festival premiums on a beach-holiday summer.
For owners on the Norfolk and Suffolk coast I review how each home compares with nearby villages, how changeover days fit each season and how festival weeks are priced. I then set out a calendar that covers summer weeks, festivals, shooting season and Christmas, so the property earns in the quieter months as well.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Norfolk.
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.

Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Shooting parties and birdwatchers keep some winter weekends busy, so I keep cottages near estates and reserves bookable on short breaks with a floor that covers heating.
Easter, the May bank holidays and the Aldeburgh Festival at Snape Maltings lift late spring, so I price those dates up early and keep other weeks flexible.
School holidays and Latitude at Henham Park make these the top weeks, so I sell Saturday-to-Saturday stays near the beaches and price Southwold homes highest during festival week.
Couples without children come after the schools return, and October half-term brings families back, so I offer three and four night breaks and price half-term as a premium.
Christmas and New Year breaks for London families fill larger homes, so I price the holiday weeks as fixed blocks and open them early.
Price Latitude and Aldeburgh Festival weeks as premiums.
Use weekly stays in July and August.
Offer long weekends in the shoulders.
Price Christmas and half-term breaks.
Price by distance to the beach and town.
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.

Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.
Alaa is a consummate professional! Patient, thorough, efficient and effective in communicating. He not only made savvy adjustments to my dynamic pricing strategy, but also helped me to understand the reasoning behind his methods, granting me a better understanding of the PriceLabs platform. Strong work!

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. How the home is described for dogs and muddy boots, since many coastal visitors bring dogs and walk the beaches and marshes daily, and clear rules reduce cleaning disputes.
Busiest in Norfolk: July and August for the beaches and Broads, with a July spike around Latitude and the Aldeburgh Festival. July to August: School holidays and Latitude at Henham Park make these the top weeks, so I sell Saturday-to-Saturday stays near the beaches and price Southwold homes highest during festival week. November to December: Christmas and New Year breaks for London families fill larger homes, so I price the holiday weeks as fixed blocks and open them early. 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.
Layering festival-week premiums onto a beach-holiday summer peak, and using Christmas, half-term and shooting-season demand to hold winter shoulder floors. For hotel revenue management consulting, I check every recommendation against the Norfolk calendar before I make it. September to October: Couples without children come after the schools return, and October half-term brings families back, so I offer three and four night breaks and price half-term as a premium.
Norfolk and the Suffolk coast are London's genteel seaside. Southwold, Aldeburgh and Wells sell week-long summer stays and long weekends, with Latitude and the Aldeburgh Festival adding event weeks. That is the view I bring to hotel revenue management consulting in Norfolk.
Results depend on the property, the starting point and the season, so I do not promise a number. In Norfolk the first gains from hotel revenue management consulting usually come from the change with the clearest local signal: use weekly stays in July and August. I review progress against your own occupancy, ADR and RevPAR, not a market average.
Norfolk sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. July to August: School holidays and Latitude at Henham Park make these the top weeks, so I sell Saturday-to-Saturday stays near the beaches and price Southwold homes highest during festival week.

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 Norfolk, not the city. Offer long weekends in the shoulders. Next: price by distance to the beach and town.
Wells-next-the-Sea and Burnham Market: Holkham beach and smart village shops draw London families, so I price summer weeks high and use shooting season and Christmas to hold winter rates. Southwold and Walberswick and Aldeburgh and Thorpeness get their own treatment. For hotel revenue management consulting, i review your comp set and rate position for your own part of Norfolk, not the market average.
