Revenue Management
At Bolster Hospitality, our revenue management service ensures your property is always positioned to capture the right demand, at the right price, and through the right channel. We go beyond basic pricing - we create a holistic strategy tailored to your market, seasonality, and brand positioning.
Outcomes You Can Expect with Bolster Hospitality’s Revenue Management:
Higher RevPAR and ADR
We focus on increasing your Revenue per Available Room (RevPAR) and Average Daily Rate (ADR) through smart pricing ladders, demand forecasting, and strategic promotions.Balanced Occupancy Across Weekdays, Weekends, and Seasons
Instead of relying only on peak weekends or high seasons, we smooth out your occupancy curve by targeting weekdays, shoulder seasons, and off-peak demand.Improved Direct Booking Revenue
We optimize your distribution mix to shift more bookings from OTAs to your own website.Long-Term Rate Integrity (No Undercutting)
We maintain strong brand positioning by protecting your rate structure from OTA undercutting or desperate discounting. Guests trust your pricing, and your property avoids the “race to the bottom” trap that damages profitability in the long run.Sustainable Revenue Growth
Instead of chasing short-term spikes, we align pricing, distribution, and marketing for steady, year-on-year growth. Our approach balances short-term wins (seasonal demand capture) with long-term strategy (brand positioning, repeat guests, higher lifetime value).
What we do:
Dynamic Pricing: Daily and seasonal adjustments based on demand, events, competitor activity, and booking pace.
Market Analysis: Continuous monitoring of competitor rates, local events, and demand signals to capture maximum share.
Demand Forecasting: Using historical data, booking patterns, and market trends to anticipate demand surges and slowdowns.
Segmentation Strategy: Custom rates for different guest profiles (corporate, leisure, groups, long-stay) to maximize profitability.
Length-of-Stay & Restrictions: Applying stay controls, minimum nights, and blackout dates to optimize both occupancy and ADR.
Package & Promotion Design: Creating attractive offers and bundled packages while maintaining rate integrity.
Seasonal & Event Pricing: Tailored strategies for peak seasons, festivals, weddings, or large-scale events.
KPI Tracking & Reporting: Focused on RevPAR, ADR, occupancy, booking window, and pickup pace - with actionable insights shared weekly.
Profitability Optimization: Not just topline growth - we track net revenue by factoring in OTA commissions and channel costs.
