Today's Revenue Management thought:-

January is behind us—are you already scrambling to catch up on your revenue targets? This week we explore 5 revenue-generating initiatives to help hotels boost earnings in February, the year's shortest month.

Maximise Ancillary Revenue

Revenue isn’t just about rooms! Upsell breakfast-in-bed, late checkouts, early check-ins, pet-friendly packages, or minibar credits. If you have a spa, bar, or restaurant, bundle these into upsell options at the time of booking. Don’t forget airport transfers—many guests would happily pre-book a smooth arrival experience.

The Bottom Line: Don’t let February slip away without maximising every revenue opportunity! Get creative, use data to target the right audience, and make sure your pricing strategy aligns with demand. Are you ready to make this February count? 🚀

Have a profitable week.

Push Direct Bookings with Perks 🚀

Give your direct bookers a reason to skip OTAs. Offer value-packed incentives like discounted upgrades, free parking, or a welcome drink—things that don’t cost much but add perceived value. Consider targeted email campaigns to past guests with exclusive returning guest offers.

The Bottom Line: Don’t let February slip away without maximising every revenue opportunity! Get creative, use data to target the right audience, and make sure your pricing strategy aligns with demand. Are you ready to make this February count? 🚀

Turn Weekdays into Mini Escapes

Weekends get attention, but weekdays? Not so much. Create midweek escape deals—think 'Work from Hotel' offers, solo retreats with spa access, or discounted long stays for remote workers. Attract locals by bundling lunch, co-working space, and spa access into a day-use package.

The Bottom Line: Don’t let February slip away without maximising every revenue opportunity! Get creative, use data to target the right audience, and make sure your pricing strategy aligns with demand. Are you ready to make this February count? 🚀

Leverage Valentine’s Day & Romantic Getaways 💘

February isn’t just short—it’s also full of love! Don’t just sell rooms; sell experiences. Offer romantic stay packageswith curated add-ons like champagne, in-room dining, late checkout, or a couples' spa treatment. Consider a special dinner event or a proposal package for those looking to pop the question in style.

I see revenue management as a proactive mindset that shapes how you drive growth and profitability. This week I will highlight five key questions a hospitality revenue manager should ask themselves at the beginning of each week:

How am I empowering my team to support revenue goals?

• Collaborate with sales, marketing, and front office teams to align efforts. Are they equipped with the tools and insights needed to drive upselling, cross-selling, and guest satisfaction?

Have a profitable week.
