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 Courchevel: Courchevel, Méribel, Val Thorens and Les Menuires ski areas; Luxury catered chalets; British, Russian-speaking and French school holiday weeks; Summer hiking and cycling in Méribel and Val Thorens. Guests I price for: Ski families and groups on Saturday-to-Saturday weeks, plus luxury chalet guests. Where I start: Weekly chalet pricing by holiday week, early-booking strategy and taxe de séjour handling.
For hotels in Courchevel, Méribel or Val Thorens I plan the season around holiday weeks, tour operator allocations and length-of-stay rules, using what I learned running revenue in luxury hotels where every week had a different market mix and a single bad decision cost the whole month.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Courchevel.
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.
When I take on revenue for a hotel in Courchevel, Méribel or Val Thorens, the year is really about twenty weeks. Christmas and the stacked February holidays look after themselves; the work is in early January, the gap before the French zones begin and the last fortnight of April. I set weekly packages against short-stay rates, manage tour operator release dates and keep half-board and spa revenue in view, not only the room rate.
In my first week I rebuild last winter as a table of weeks, showing occupancy, average rate and release dates for each allotment, so the weak spots are visible at once.
The lifts open and keen skiers test the snow. I accept shorter stays and corporate group trips here, then lock the calendar to full weeks once the run-up to Christmas begins.
Families book these two weeks earliest and pay the most. I set my highest rates and longest minimum stays here, and I never move them down in autumn just because pace looks slow.
The most expensive address in the valleys, with the altiport and luxury chalets. I price by the week, set long lead times and rarely accept anything shorter in the high season.

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. Prices below are for a hotel of up to 20 rooms; larger hotels move up the size bands on the hotel plans page.

Busiest in Courchevel: Christmas to early April, with Christmas, New Year and February school holidays highest. Christmas and New Year: Families book these two weeks earliest and pay the most. I set my highest rates and longest minimum stays here, and I never move them down in autumn just because pace looks slow. January: Snow is often at its best and slopes are quieter, so I sell value to adult groups and ski clubs with sensible rates, while keeping the weekend before February 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. The ski access claim in the listing. I test how far it really is to the nearest lift or piste, because guests paying for ski-in ski-out will not forgive a walk with boots.
Price Courchevel 1850 and Méribel chalets apart from Val Thorens and Les Menuires apartments. Next: allow short stays only in early December and late April. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Courchevel 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 Courchevel: May to June and September to November, when most chalets close. Summer: Many chalets stay closed, but those that open around Méribel and Val Thorens can sell cycling and hiking weeks. I price for activity guests, not as a ski-style premium. Early to mid December: The lifts open and keen skiers test the snow. I accept shorter stays and corporate group trips here, then lock the calendar to full weeks once the run-up to Christmas begins.
Courchevel and Les Menuires priced against the same comps and taxe de séjour missing from the weekly total guests compare. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Courchevel, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Courchevel, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Courchevel sells mostly through Chalet agencies, Booking.com, Airbnb and Vrbo. Early to mid December: The lifts open and keen skiers test the snow. I accept shorter stays and corporate group trips here, then lock the calendar to full weeks once the run-up to Christmas begins.
Courchevel 1850: The most expensive address in the valleys, with the altiport and luxury chalets. I price by the week, set long lead times and rarely accept anything shorter in the high season. Méribel and Mottaret and Val Thorens and Les Menuires 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.
Summer hiking and cycling in Méribel and Val Thorens, Courchevel, Méribel, Val Thorens and Les Menuires ski areas and Luxury catered chalets are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Courchevel. February holidays: French zones, Belgian, Dutch and British half-terms stack up across four weeks. I give the week with the most overlap the top rate and price the edges a step lower.
