Action: Keeping Your Revenue Manager Informed – Owner Blocks, Renovations, Changes and Local Events

Module 15: WTP Advanced Optimisation and Revenue Management Service

In short

Pricing software reads the market but can't know about your owner stays, renovations, broken or new amenities, cleaner availability or local events. Telling your revenue manager early, and making blocks in your channel manager so every platform sees them, lets prices around those dates be set correctly and protects your reviews and peak periods.

Questions people ask

Why should I tell my revenue manager about owner stays?

Blocks change which nights can be sold and how the nights around them should be priced, especially in peak periods.

What should I do after renovating my Airbnb?

Update the listing and property details, refresh your pricing tool's property information, and review the price and comparison set with your revenue manager.

Does a broken amenity affect my Airbnb pricing?

Yes. Update the listing straight away and tell booked guests, because guests rate accuracy and a mismatch can hurt reviews and pricing power.
