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 Saint-Tropez. Saint-Tropez is a villa market where one week in August can earn more than a whole month of spring. Guests rent around Pampelonne, Ramatuelle, Gassin and Grimaud for the beach clubs, the port and the yachts, and they book through agencies as often as online. Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez in late September gives a second peak. I price the high weeks with confidence and protect them from early discounting.
With a Saint-Tropez owner I go through agency contracts, past bookings by week and the real comp set of villas by area and size. The plan sets targets for peak weeks, a strategy for the shoulders and clear rules for when direct bookings beat agency deals.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Saint-Tropez.
