Today's Revenue Management thought:-
Reflecting on some of the comments I received during 2023.
“The demand is slow, let’s lower the rates to get more bookings”
“We are almost full, let’s raise the rates”
“That’s a huge piece of business, we cannot turn it down to give it to the competition”
“We should put a minimum Length Of Stay restriction over the event”
“I cannot overbook the Hotel”
“We closed X% more than Last Year/Budget so we did great!”
“We have to fill up the Hotel”
“Do you have a crystal ball?”
I am confident that numerous readers of mine have indeed faced similar comments in 2023.
Have a profitable week !
