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 Thessaloniki: Halkidiki beach season; Thessaloniki International Fair and Film Festival; Balkan road-trip travel; Student calendar. Guests I price for: Balkan and European families on weekly Halkidiki stays, city-breakers in Thessaloniki. Where I start: Weekly coastal pricing, city event premiums, and off-season floors.
From my years in five-star hotels I help Thessaloniki city hotels manage fair, congress and university demand, and Halkidiki resorts balance tour operator allotments with direct Balkan drive-in guests. I focus on release dates, segment mix and pricing the shoulder months realistically rather than filling them with deep discounts.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Thessaloniki.
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.
“Thessaloniki and Halkidiki are two markets. Halkidiki's beaches sell weekly summer stays to Balkan and European families, while Thessaloniki's peak is autumn with the International Fair and Film Festival. I price the coast by the week and the city by events.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Halkidiki homes mostly close, while Thessaloniki relies on students, business visitors and the Film Festival; I price city flats for monthly stays and short event peaks.
Easter and warm weekends bring Balkan drivers to the coast and city breakers to Thessaloniki; I price weekends firmly and keep midweek stays flexible.
Kassandra and Sithonia fill with families on weekly stays, so I run Saturday changeovers and price July and August highest.
The International Fair in September and student arrivals lift the city, while Halkidiki stays warm; I price both firmly and relax stay lengths in October.
Run Halkidiki homes on weekly summer stays.
Price the Thessaloniki International Fair and Film Festival as premiums.
Price Thessaloniki for student-calendar demand.
Keep AMA registration numbers visible.
Set coastal off-season floors.
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Core, up to 20 rooms | Managed pricing, run for you every day | From $650/mo |
| 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 |

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 Thessaloniki: June to September in Halkidiki, and September to November in Thessaloniki with the film festival and trade fair. June to August: Kassandra and Sithonia fill with families on weekly stays, so I run Saturday changeovers and price July and August highest. September to October: The International Fair in September and student arrivals lift the city, while Halkidiki stays warm; I price both firmly and relax stay lengths in October. 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. How the listing presents parking, road access and border crossing times, since many guests drive from Serbia, Bulgaria and North Macedonia.
Price Thessaloniki for student-calendar demand. Next: set coastal off-season floors. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Thessaloniki 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 Thessaloniki: November to March on the coast. April to May: Easter and warm weekends bring Balkan drivers to the coast and city breakers to Thessaloniki; I price weekends firmly and keep midweek stays flexible. November to March: Halkidiki homes mostly close, while Thessaloniki relies on students, business visitors and the Film Festival; I price city flats for monthly stays and short event peaks.
Autumn city events ignored and listings without AMA numbers. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Thessaloniki, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Thessaloniki, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Thessaloniki sells mostly through Airbnb and Booking.com. June to August: Kassandra and Sithonia fill with families on weekly stays, so I run Saturday changeovers and price July and August highest.
Thessaloniki centre and Ladadika: Close to the waterfront, nightlife and museums; I price for short city breaks and event dates, with longer stays in quiet months. Kassandra and Sithonia 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.
Student calendar, Halkidiki beach season and Thessaloniki International Fair and Film Festival are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Thessaloniki. April to May: Easter and warm weekends bring Balkan drivers to the coast and city breakers to Thessaloniki; I price weekends firmly and keep midweek stays flexible.
