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 St. Louis: Cardinals and Blues seasons; Gateway Arch and Forest Park tourism; Washington University calendar; Conventions and medical travel. Guests I price for: Regional visitors on 2 to 3 night stays, medical and corporate guests. Where I start: Game-day and event premiums, medical-stay weekly rates, and winter floors.
On Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com I build your St. Louis pricing around the sports and convention calendar, weekly medical stays near the Central West End and sensible winter floors, inside PriceLabs or Wheelhouse, so each channel prices from one consistent set of rules.
The service in general is described on my airbnb revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in St. Louis.
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.
“St. Louis is a steady regional market with a strong summer and useful medical demand. Cardinals home stands, festivals and the Gateway Arch bring visitors, while hospitals and universities keep weekdays busy. January and February are slow. I use weekly medical stays to support the quieter months.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
I let weekday rates follow hospital and convention bookings instead of tourism, and I quote 14 and 28 night totals so patient families can compare me against an extended-stay hotel.
For homes in Soulard, Lafayette Square and near downtown I treat the parade weekend as a standalone event with a two-night minimum, even though the rest of February is quiet.
Opening Day, Cardinals home stands and Washington University commencement all land here, so I load the home schedule into the calendar the day it is published and lift those Fridays and Saturdays.
Fair Saint Louis around the Fourth, summer baseball and family trips to the Arch and Forest Park keep weekends full; I hold firm and only soften weekdays when pickup stalls.
Move-in weekend, Blues home games and the fall convention calendar carry this stretch; I price game nights near the Enterprise Center separately and step floors down after Thanksgiving.
Price Cardinals home stands and big events for homes near downtown.
Build weekly rates for medical stays near hospital campuses.
Add Washington University graduation and move-in weekends as premiums.
Set April to October as the main season.
Lower winter floors with monthly options.
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. 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 | Core +35% |
| Pro | Full revenue management with a monthly strategy call | Core +75% |

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 St. Louis: April to October, with Cardinals home stands, summer festivals and university calendars. July to August: Fair Saint Louis around the Fourth, summer baseball and family trips to the Arch and Forest Park keep weekends full; I hold firm and only soften weekdays when pickup stalls. Soulard Mardi Gras (February): For homes in Soulard, Lafayette Square and near downtown I treat the parade weekend as a standalone event with a two-night minimum, even though the rest of February is quiet. 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 under the city's short-term rental rules or sits in St. Louis County, because the two jurisdictions treat permits differently and that shapes everything after.
Price Cardinals home stands and big events for homes near downtown. Next: add Washington University graduation and move-in weekends as premiums. For Airbnb revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a St. Louis 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 St. Louis: January to February. September to December: Move-in weekend, Blues home games and the fall convention calendar carry this stretch; I price game nights near the Enterprise Center separately and step floors down after Thanksgiving. January to early February: I let weekday rates follow hospital and convention bookings instead of tourism, and I quote 14 and 28 night totals so patient families can compare me against an extended-stay hotel.
Medical demand not addressed with weekly pricing and university weekends ignored. I look for these first when I review Airbnb revenue management in St. Louis, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For Airbnb revenue management in St. Louis, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. St. Louis sells mostly through Airbnb, Vrbo and Booking.com. September to December: Move-in weekend, Blues home games and the fall convention calendar carry this stretch; I price game nights near the Enterprise Center separately and step floors down after Thanksgiving.
Downtown West and near Busch Stadium: This is where game nights, concerts and CITYPARK soccer matches matter most, so the event calendar sets my weekend prices more than the season does. Central West End and Soulard and Lafayette Square 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.
Conventions and medical travel, Cardinals and Blues seasons and Gateway Arch and Forest Park tourism are the dates I price first for Airbnb revenue management in St. Louis. April to June: Opening Day, Cardinals home stands and Washington University commencement all land here, so I load the home schedule into the calendar the day it is published and lift those Fridays and Saturdays.

The scope of Airbnb revenue management is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in St. Louis I would start from soulard Mardi Gras (February): For homes in Soulard, Lafayette Square and near downtown I treat the parade weekend as a standalone event with a two-night minimum, even though the rest of February is quiet.
