Hotel revenue management consulting is an independent review followed by a plan. I look at 12 to 24 months of your own data, shop your comp set, and find where rates, restrictions or channels are costing you money. Unlike outsourcing, I do not make your daily decisions; your team does, with a better plan.
This is my view of Door County. Door County and the Wisconsin Dells are both Midwestern family markets, but different ones. The Dells run on waterparks and school holidays, Door County on cottages, cherry season and autumn colour. Both have long off-seasons. I price summer by the week and make the shoulder months work for couples and weekenders.
For Door County or Dells owners I review licences, location and how your home fits families, couples and groups. Then we build a plan for summer, colour season and the long off-season, with clear targets that reflect whether you are bay-side, Lake Michigan side or near the waterparks.
The service in general is described on my hotel revenue management consulting page; this page covers how I apply it in Door County.
A review of the last 12 to 24 months: pricing decisions, rate architecture, restrictions, channel mix and cost, comp-set position, pace and the systems behind them, with every gap ranked by value.
Base rates and floors per room type, BAR levels tied to occupancy and pace, seasonal and event calendars and restrictions, written as a 12-month calendar your team can run.
Which channels to sell on, at what rate and with which promotions, so the mix protects margin: OTAs, corporate, wholesale, metasearch and direct.
A demand forecast, an annual budget, weekly pace reports and a workshop for your team, plus honest advice on revenue systems before you sign for one.

Indoor waterparks keep the Dells busier than Door County, so I price Dells winter weekends and school breaks firmly while Door County homes rely on monthly stays and the odd snowshoe weekend.
Door County blossom season and the Dells' spring breaks lift some weekends; I keep minimums short and price for couples and families testing an early trip.
Families fill both areas, with Door County cherry picking in late July and Dells waterparks all summer, so I protect week-long stays and price weekends highest.
Door County fall colour and festivals like Sister Bay Fall Fest bring strong weekends, so I price those firmly and keep Dells pricing moderate after Labor Day.
Door County slows sharply after the colour, so I set realistic floors and use Christmas weekends, while Dells homes price around holiday breaks and indoor waterpark demand.
Run summer on weekly or long-weekend stays for families.
Price Door County October colour weekends as a premium.
Price Dells homes around school holidays and waterpark demand.
Shorten minimum stays in spring and autumn for couples.
Offer low winter floors and weekend stays.
Performance has flattened
RevPAR is stuck while the market around you moves on.
Opening, renovating or rebranding
A new positioning needs a pricing and distribution strategy built from scratch.
An owner wants a second opinion
You need the operator's numbers checked by someone outside the hotel.
You have a team but want a better plan
Someone prices today and wants an audit, a calendar and training.
Thirty minutes on your property, your market and where you think revenue leaks. I scope the work and confirm the price before starting.
With read-only access to your PMS, channel manager and extranets I analyse the data, shop your comp set and talk to whoever sets rates today.
A written report and a working session: the gaps ranked by value, the strategy to close them and a 12-month calendar.
Step 4
I can set the strategy up in your systems, train your team and check in monthly, or run it for you as outsourced management.
Every engagement is fixed-scope and fixed-price. After a free discovery call you get the scope and the price in writing before any work starts. Training days and monthly check-ins are quoted separately.

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!
