5 Ways to Get the Best Value Out of PriceAdvisor by Amenitiz: Enhanced Insights

In the dynamic world of hospitality, the ability to quickly adapt and optimize pricing strategies directly impacts a property’s success and profitability. PriceAdvisor by Amenitiz stands at the forefront of this innovation, offering a suite of features designed to empower hoteliers.

This blog post revisits the core advantages of PriceAdvisor, incorporating valuable feedback to provide deeper insights into how hoteliers can leverage this tool for maximum benefit.

An Introduction to PriceAdvisor

Before we dive into how you can best use PriceAdvisor, let’s backtrack a little. For anyone not familiar with it, PriceAdvisor is a dynamic pricing tool created by Amenitiz.

Dynamic pricing tools are algorithms utilized by businesses to adjust prices in real-time based on various factors such as demand, time of booking, competitor pricing, and other market conditions. These tools leverage big data analytics and machine learning techniques to optimize pricing strategies, aiming to maximize revenue and profitability.

They are a recent addition to the hospitality sector but they are still incredibly useful. Here, they play a crucial role in managing room rates for hotels, resorts, vacation rentals, and other accommodations. By analyzing historical booking data, seasonal trends, competitors prices, local events, and even weather forecasts, these tools can determine the optimal price point for each room at any given time.

For example, during peak travel seasons, the tool might recommend higher prices to capitalize on increased demand. Conversely, during off-peak periods or when occupancy rates are low, prices may be lowered to stimulate demand and fill empty rooms. All in all, they help ease the decision process for property owners.

PriceAdvisor will help you understand which price will work best for your property, depending on the current situation as well as the rack rates set by competitors around you. It will offer live advice on which prices suits your specific situation better, depending on location, competition, context, events, etc.

Even better, you can apply the new pricing directly without having to log into every platform to switch around your prices. You will be just one click away from the perfect pricing.

Implement Strategic Positioning with Enhanced OTA Visibility

Strategic positioning goes beyond setting competitive prices; it’s about ensuring your property is more discoverable to potential guests. PriceAdvisor significantly influences this by updating prices on OTAs (Online Travel Agencies), thus improving your ranking and positioning. Indeed, frequent price updates allow you to rank better in OTAs.

This heightened visibility on OTA platforms means your property becomes more accessible to a wider audience, increasing the likelihood of bookings. By utilizing PriceAdvisor’s data-driven recommendations, you can ensure that your pricing not only attracts guests but also enhances your property’s presence on key booking sites.

The best part? You don’t even have to lift a finger. When checking PriceAdvisor’s recommended price, you just need to click on apply and the new pricing will get implemented everywhere. No need to double check or even ensure that you haven’t forgotten something.

No need to pull your hair out over your pricing strategy anymore, PriceAdvisor will do it for you, faster than ever before. We will do all the heavy lifting, combining and analyzing data in real time so you don’t have to.

Centralized Decision-Making Directly from Your Calendar

PriceAdvisor emphasizes ease and efficiency in daily operations. Highlighting its centralized approach, it allows hoteliers to view and implement price suggestions directly from their calendar, without the need to navigate through different windows.

Time-Saving Updates Across All Channels

The next advantage of using PriceAdvisor is its ability to centralize competitor prices from online channels in one comprehensive view. More significantly, it empowers hoteliers to update their prices and positioning across all channels where they are listed with a single click.

This unparalleled efficiency not only saves valuable time but also eliminates the complexity of managing multiple OTA interfaces. By streamlining this process, PriceAdvisor ensures that your pricing strategy is consistent and coherent across all platforms, enhancing your competitive edge.

It takes a lot of time to scout the competition’s pricing and compare it to your own, all while bearing in mind the context (weather, holidays, demand, occupancy rate).
