Monday Revenue Rethink
Are you pricing for people, or pricing for platforms?
In my experience, too many hotels optimise for algorithms, not humans.
Your guest doesn’t care about LOS restrictions or length of stay discounts that only a robot understands. They care about fairness, clarity, and perceived value.
Price for the person, not the platform. That’s where profit lives.
📌 I challenge conventional pricing every Monday.
💬 What’s one rate rule you have… that no guest has ever understood?

Monday Revenue Rethink
When was the last time you raised rates… on purpose… during a low season?
Most hotels lower prices when demand dips. But I’ve seen properties increase rates in low season, and still boost conversion.
How? By owning the story. Packaging value. Selling a feeling, not a bed.
Smart revenue managers don’t follow the market. They shape it.
📌 Join me every Monday as we rethink the old playbook.
💬 What’s the boldest rate move you made that actually worked?
