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 Perugia: Umbria Jazz festival; Eurochocolate; Assisi and the Basilica of Saint Francis; Festival dei Due Mondi in Spoleto. Guests I price for: festival-goers and pilgrims on 2 to 4 night stays in Perugia's historic centre and the hill towns of Assisi and Spoleto. Where I start: back-to-back summer and autumn festival premiums, Assisi's steady pilgrim base, and Umbria regional coding plus national CIN across the rural lets.
Umbrian hotels balance pilgrims, festivals, weddings in the countryside and touring groups. With my background in five-star hotel revenue I work on group allotments for religious tours, festival rate fences, wedding contracts and the right mix of OTA and direct sales.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Perugia.
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.
“Umbria has back-to-back festivals: Umbria Jazz in July and Eurochocolate in October, plus Festival dei Due Mondi in Spoleto. Assisi brings pilgrims all year. I price festival weeks firmly and keep a steady base for pilgrims. Hill towns are close together but attract different visitors, so Perugia, Assisi and Spoleto each need their own comps rather than a regional average.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Winter is the quietest stretch, so I set protected floors in Perugia for university visitors and keep Assisi rates steady for pilgrims who come in every season.
Spring hill-town touring, Easter and Assisi's Calendimaggio in May lift weekends, so I raise Friday and Saturday first and open Spoleto festival dates in late June early.
Umbria Jazz fills Perugia's centre around Corso Vannucci, so I price concert nights in the old town as a premium with three-night stays and keep the outskirts more modest.
Heat slows city breaks, so I shift attention to countryside homes with pools near Trasimeno and Montefalco and keep Perugia flats at fair, unforced rates.
Harvest in the Sagrantino vineyards, the Feast of Saint Francis on 4 October and Eurochocolate keep autumn strong, so I hold firm until November, then price Christmas weekends separately.

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 |
|---|---|---|

| 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 |
Real feedback from PriceLabs pricing strategy sessions with Alaa.

Strong work!
Airbnb host
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 Perugia: July for Umbria Jazz and October for Eurochocolate, with a strong spring. April to June: Spring hill-town touring, Easter and Assisi's Calendimaggio in May lift weekends, so I raise Friday and Saturday first and open Spoleto festival dates in late June early. July: Umbria Jazz fills Perugia's centre around Corso Vannucci, so I price concert nights in the old town as a premium with three-night stays and keep the outskirts more modest. 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. Whether a rural home's pool, air conditioning and road access are clearly shown, since countryside guests in summer compare these features before they ever look closely at the nightly price.
Price Assisi homes for steady pilgrim demand. Next: display regional codes and CIN. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Perugia 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 Perugia: January and February, plus the August heat. August: Heat slows city breaks, so I shift attention to countryside homes with pools near Trasimeno and Montefalco and keep Perugia flats at fair, unforced rates. January to March: Winter is the quietest stretch, so I set protected floors in Perugia for university visitors and keep Assisi rates steady for pilgrims who come in every season.
Assisi priced like other towns and listings without codes. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Perugia, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Perugia, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Perugia sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. April to June: Spring hill-town touring, Easter and Assisi's Calendimaggio in May lift weekends, so I raise Friday and Saturday first and open Spoleto festival dates in late June early.
Perugia centro storico: Corso Vannucci, the university and the jazz stages keep demand student and festival led; I price festival weeks high and hold monthly options for academic visitors. Assisi and Lake Trasimeno and the countryside 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.
Festival dei Due Mondi in Spoleto, Umbria Jazz festival and Eurochocolate are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Perugia. September to December: Harvest in the Sagrantino vineyards, the Feast of Saint Francis on 4 October and Eurochocolate keep autumn strong, so I hold firm until November, then price Christmas weekends separately.
