Airbnb revenue management is the ongoing work of pricing every night, setting stay rules, managing channels and reporting results. It goes further than a pricing tool: I review the strategy as demand, events and your own pace change, and I explain every change I make.
What I plan around in South Bend: Notre Dame Fighting Irish football; University of Notre Dame commencement and campus events; Chicago weekend travel to Lake Michigan beaches; Business travel to the regional healthcare and manufacturing base. Guests I price for: Football fans and alumni on 2 to 3 night game weekends, graduation families, and visiting academics. Where I start: Home-game weekend premiums set well ahead, opponent-based tiers, graduation pricing, and winter floors.
For South Bend rentals on Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com, I set every home game as its own event in PriceLabs or Wheelhouse, with opponent-based tiers and two-night minimums, then use monthly discounts and lower floors for the long stretch from December to March.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in South Bend.
I review demand and pace and make two or three price changes a week where the market calls for them, inside the tool you already use.
On Plus I also optimize listings, plan promotions, track competitor rates per listing and manage Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo together.
A monthly summary on every plan and a full ADR, occupancy and RevPAR report on Plus and Pro, so you see what changed and why.
On Pro I forecast demand, keep a 12-month pricing calendar, meet you monthly and review quarterly, and I set launch prices for new listings.
Airbnb demand in South Bend rises and falls with Notre Dame, and the winters are long and quiet. Homes near campus earn the strongest game premiums, while those in Mishawaka or Granger compete on space and parking. I price each home game separately, set stay rules for football and graduation, and fill the cold months with longer professional stays.
In week one I enter every home game, commencement and reunion date into the calendar, then set the winter long-stay discounts.
Notre Dame, Saint Mary's and Holy Cross graduations stack together, followed by alumni reunion weekend, so I price this run as one peak and protect three-night stays.
Summer camps, conferences and lake-bound visitors keep weekends steady; I allow shorter stays, price Fridays and Saturdays firmly and accept quieter weekdays.
Larger suburban homes with garages and space; I aim them at big families and alumni groups who will drive to the game, with weekly rates for relocating families in winter.
My full South Bend calendar, areas, pricing moves and the mistakes I fix are on the revenue management consultant page for South Bend.
One listing and no time
You want pricing handled properly without checking the calendar every day.
A growing portfolio
You manage several listings and need one consistent, scalable method.
A property manager
You want owner-ready reporting and revenue leadership without an in-house hire.
Smart Pricing is not enough
Airbnb's own tool optimizes for Airbnb's fill rate, not your revenue across channels.
Send the listing links, your pricing tool and your goals. I confirm the plan level and the monthly price for your listing count.
I build the base, minimum and maximum prices, seasons, events and stay rules for your market before the first month starts.
I watch demand and pace and move prices and restrictions as the market does.
Step 4
You get the monthly report, and on Pro we meet, and I adjust the plan from the results.
Priced monthly by listing count on a graduated curve, so there are no tier cliffs. Plus adds 35 percent and Pro 75 percent to the Core price. Prices below are for one listing. Never a percentage of revenue.
| Option | What you get | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Core | Managed pricing, run for you every day | From $225/mo |
| Plus | Pricing plus listing and channel optimization | From $305/mo |
| Pro | Full revenue management with a monthly strategy call | From $395/mo |
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!
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 South Bend: Notre Dame home football weekends from September to November, plus graduation in May. May to early June: Notre Dame, Saint Mary's and Holy Cross graduations stack together, followed by alumni reunion weekend, so I price this run as one peak and protect three-night stays. September to November: Football weekends rule the calendar, and I stop accepting long midweek bookings that would cut into a home game unless the total clearly beats the weekend. For Airbnb 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 Airbnb revenue management, that is the first thing I check before taking on the pricing, because everything else sits on top of it. Whether the home is registered and collecting tax correctly for its exact location, because South Bend city, Mishawaka and the rest of St. Joseph County are separate places with their own expectations.
Price each home game on its own tier once the schedule is out, with traditional rivals and prime-time matchups at the top and early-season games lower. Next: open commencement weekend early and price it as a peak, since families book as soon as graduation dates are confirmed. For Airbnb revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a South Bend property usually leaks the most.
For Airbnb 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 South Bend: December to February. December: After the season ends I return to winter floors and pitch holiday stays to families visiting relatives in the Michiana area. January to March: Snow and the empty campus make this the slowest stretch, so I open monthly stays for visiting professionals and lift only Junior Parents Weekend in February when families come in.
Giving every home game the same price regardless of opponent and forgetting that some Notre Dame home games are played away from South Bend, then pricing a quiet weekend like a game weekend. I look for these first when I review Airbnb revenue management in South Bend, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For Airbnb revenue management in South Bend, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. South Bend sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. May to early June: Notre Dame, Saint Mary's and Holy Cross graduations stack together, followed by alumni reunion weekend, so I price this run as one peak and protect three-night stays.
Granger: Larger suburban homes with garages and space; I aim them at big families and alumni groups who will drive to the game, with weekly rates for relocating families in winter. Northeast Neighborhood and East Bank and downtown get their own treatment. For Airbnb revenue management, i set rates, comp sets and restrictions per area and per room or listing type, not as one citywide number.
Business travel to the regional healthcare and manufacturing base, Notre Dame Fighting Irish football and University of Notre Dame commencement and campus events are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue management in South Bend. December: After the season ends I return to winter floors and pitch holiday stays to families visiting relatives in the Michiana area.
