Today’s market is more educated, the generations X and Y have become accustomed to a different way of buying their holidays, which makes them smarter than the “traditional revenue manager” as they have the tools, like Metasearches and APPs, to influence the buying decision to the very last minute. HMS Thailand adapts to this in our work to provide a more dynamic pricing field that is able to react to sudden movements in demand each time a purchase is made.

What Markets to Attract

The hotel market is segmented in buyer groups and seller groups. Identifying these segment groups, understand their demands and needs, will give a better foundation for your overall pricing strategy.

All though the product offered looks the same, each segment has a different value perception of the product. The market segmentation is the base for good rate distribution strategy. As each seller group has a different business model (BtoC/ BtoB/ Online/ Offline), benefit schemes have to be set in order to stay competitive.

Our grass root approach will identify the market segments and make them part of the Revenue management process.

How to Set Optimized Rates?

Creating the optimal price is based on various factors as supply and demand, costing etc. The hotel industry has priced its products for many years based on seasonality or mid week and weekends.

Dynamic pricing is currently needed to cope with irregular demand which is caused by the increase of online distributors and resellers in combination of new technologies as smart phones and tablets. The market has the opportunity to shop on its own convenient time and using new techniques to valuate purchases and to find the best available rate. Today’s hoteliers have to step away from seasonal pricing and use more dynamic and flexible pricing.

The right revenue management strategy, leads to dynamic rates which need to be distributed in a short momentum of time, as the market situation is continuous changing. We create a dynamic rate structure with various derivatives that would help the hotelier to optimize its revpar.
