Thinking
On demand visibility, behavioral pricing, and what the data actually says.
Most operators experience demand blindness as 'views but no bookings.' The real problem is they have no visibility into what happens between the two.
· 5 minIt's data, it's science, but it's also art. That's how most operators describe their pricing process. And that's exactly the problem.
· 5 minMarketing and revenue are siloed. They don't talk to each other. And it's a huge miss.
· 5 min"Very strange" is the most expensive phrase in vacation rentals. When you can't diagnose the gap, you can't fix it.
· 5 minDemand spikes are visible before they hit your calendar. The operators who capture 3-5x on spike nights aren't lucky. They're looking.
· 6 minSuperhost. 5 stars. Nothing changed. And then the bookings stopped. That's not bad luck. That's architecture.
· 5 minThe RM market is drowning in identical pitches. The only way through is showing operators something they've never seen.
· 5 minThe answer isn't a channel. It's knowing which channel brings guests who spend, not just click.
· 5 minThe problem isn't the ad spend. Nobody tracked what happened between the click and the bounce.
