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 Santiago: Ski resorts near Santiago; Wine tourism in Maipo and Casablanca; Valparaíso and Viña del Mar summer; Business and mining travel. Guests I price for: Brazilian and Argentine travellers in summer, ski visitors in winter, corporate guests midweek. Where I start: Dual-season pricing, corporate rates, and shoulder floors.
With my five-star background I help Santiago and Valparaíso hotels balance corporate, mining and leisure segments, build ski and wine packages for international guests and price festival weeks so they lift revenue without pushing out reliable weekday business. Ski-season rates get their own fences.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Santiago.
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.
“Santiago has summer, ski season and business travel. Brazilians and Argentines ski nearby in winter, wine valleys attract visitors and mining and corporate travel fills weekdays. Valparaíso and Viña del Mar are summer coast markets. Winter ski visitors and summer beach visitors want different locations, so homes near the road to the mountains and homes near the coast need separate strategies.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
The New Year fireworks over Valparaíso bay and the Viña del Mar festival in February drive the coast, so I price those nights as premiums while Santiago weekdays stay corporate.
Lollapalooza Chile and the harvest festivals in the wine valleys lift March and April weekends; I price those higher and keep weekday rates steady through May.
Ski season draws Brazilians and Argentines to Valle Nevado, La Parva and El Colorado, so I price homes on the eastern side toward the mountain road higher and hold winter weekends firm.
Around the eighteenth Chileans travel for the national holidays, so I raise coastal homes, set short minimums and keep Santiago rates competitive for visitors.
Spring brings steady business travel and wine visits, so I hold corporate rates in the city and gradually build the coast calendar toward summer.

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.

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 Santiago: December to February summer, Lollapalooza Chile in March, and ski season from June to September. December to February: The New Year fireworks over Valparaíso bay and the Viña del Mar festival in February drive the coast, so I price those nights as premiums while Santiago weekdays stay corporate. June to mid-September: Ski season draws Brazilians and Argentines to Valle Nevado, La Parva and El Colorado, so I price homes on the eastern side toward the mountain road higher and hold winter weekends firm. 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 mining and corporate guests can get an invoice and a proper workspace, because they often book midweek for several nights and will not compromise on those basics.
Set weekday corporate rates. Next: add Lollapalooza Chile. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Santiago 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 Santiago: May and August outside ski weeks. October to November: Spring brings steady business travel and wine visits, so I hold corporate rates in the city and gradually build the coast calendar toward summer. March to May: Lollapalooza Chile and the harvest festivals in the wine valleys lift March and April weekends; I price those higher and keep weekday rates steady through May.
Coast priced like Santiago and business demand ignored. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Santiago, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Santiago, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Santiago sells mostly through Airbnb and Booking.com. March to May: Lollapalooza Chile and the harvest festivals in the wine valleys lift March and April weekends; I price those higher and keep weekday rates steady through May.
Lastarria and Bellas Artes: Central, cultural and walkable with museums and cafés; I price for leisure guests and couples, with weekends set above weekdays. Cerro Alegre and Cerro Concepción, Valparaíso and Vitacura 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.
Business and mining travel, Ski resorts near Santiago and Wine tourism in Maipo and Casablanca are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Santiago. October to November: Spring brings steady business travel and wine visits, so I hold corporate rates in the city and gradually build the coast calendar toward summer.

The scope of outsourced hotel revenue management is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Santiago I would start from June to mid-September: Ski season draws Brazilians and Argentines to Valle Nevado, La Parva and El Colorado, so I price homes on the eastern side toward the mountain road higher and hold winter weekends firm.
