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 The Yorkshire Dales: Malham Cove, Gordale Scar and Aysgarth Falls; the Ribblehead Viaduct and the Settle to Carlisle railway; the Yorkshire Three Peaks challenge of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough; Grassington and Wensleydale as the setting for All Creatures Great and Small. Guests I price for: Ramblers, cyclists and multi-generation families on week-long cottage lets around Grassington, Hawes, Settle and Skipton. Where I start: Pricing a strongly seasonal cottage market with seven-night summer minimums, then softening to short breaks in shoulder months to keep the calendar moving.
For Dales inns, small hotels and guesthouses I work on weekend packages, walker and cyclist rates, and event pricing around Grassington and the Great Yorkshire Show, drawing on my five-star chain hotel background to protect peak rates and build steady shoulder demand.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in The Yorkshire Dales.
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.
“The Yorkshire Dales are a classic cottage market with walkers, cyclists and families on week-long summer stays, boosted by the All Creatures Great and Small effect in Grassington and Wensleydale. Winter is quiet. I hold seven-night summer stays and switch to short breaks in the shoulders.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
Walkers and couples come for quiet winter breaks, so I offer two and three night stays and keep a floor that covers heating and cleaning in stone cottages.
Easter and the May bank holidays open the season, and the Three Peaks challenge begins in earnest, so I price those weekends up and offer short breaks in between.
Families, cyclists and walkers fill the Dales, and events like the Grassington Festival and the Great Yorkshire Show nearby add demand, so I sell full weeks early and price event weeks up.
Autumn colour, half-term and the Grassington Dickensian Festival in December keep some weekends busy, so I price those dates up and run short breaks the rest of the time.
Use 7-night minimums from June to September.
Price Easter and bank holidays as premiums.
Offer 3 and 4-night short breaks in spring and autumn.
Price Grassington and Hawes homes by their own comps.

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.

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 The Yorkshire Dales: June to September for the fells and long light evenings, with busy Easter and bank-holiday weekends. June to September: Families, cyclists and walkers fill the Dales, and events like the Grassington Festival and the Great Yorkshire Show nearby add demand, so I sell full weeks early and price event weeks up. 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 describes distance to the Settle to Carlisle railway and the start of popular walks, since guests often plan their whole stay around them.
Offer 3 and 4-night short breaks in spring and autumn. Next: list on UK cottage channels. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a The Yorkshire Dales 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 The Yorkshire Dales: January and February. January to March: Walkers and couples come for quiet winter breaks, so I offer two and three night stays and keep a floor that covers heating and cleaning in stone cottages. April to May: Easter and the May bank holidays open the season, and the Three Peaks challenge begins in earnest, so I price those weekends up and offer short breaks in between.
Weekly-only rules kept in winter and village differences ignored. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in The Yorkshire Dales, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in The Yorkshire Dales, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. The Yorkshire Dales sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. June to September: Families, cyclists and walkers fill the Dales, and events like the Grassington Festival and the Great Yorkshire Show nearby add demand, so I sell full weeks early and price event weeks up.
Grassington and Wharfedale: Popular with walkers and fans of All Creatures Great and Small, so I price summer and festival weeks firmly and offer short breaks in quieter months. Hawes and Wensleydale and Settle and Ribblesdale 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.
Grassington and Wensleydale as the setting for All Creatures Great and Small, Malham Cove, Gordale Scar and Aysgarth Falls and the Ribblehead Viaduct and the Settle to Carlisle railway are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in The Yorkshire Dales. April to May: Easter and the May bank holidays open the season, and the Three Peaks challenge begins in earnest, so I price those weekends up and offer short breaks in between.
