The #1 Revenue Mistake Property Managers Make (and How to Fix It)

You Think You Have Revenue Management Covered—But Are You Actually Maximizing Profit?

Most short-term rental property managers think they have revenue management handled. They’ve got dynamic pricing software, they’re adjusting rates… and yet, they’re still leaving thousands of dollars on the table.

Why?

Because dynamic pricing isn’t enough.

Yes, it’s a critical tool, but without a fully optimized revenue strategy, you’re only scratching the surface of what’s possible.

The Revenue Levers You’re Missing

  • Pricing Adjustments Alone Don’t Maximize Revenue
    Your software suggests a rate based on market trends, seasonality, and demand. But is it considering how your fees impact bookings? Is it factoring in minimum stay settings, discount structures, and promotional timing?

    Probably not. That’s where most STR operators lose money without realizing it.

  • Your Fee Structure Could Be Costing You
    Cleaning fees, pet fees, early check-in charges—if these aren’t optimized, you’re either leaving money on the table or scaring away potential guests.

  • Promotions Without a Strategy Hurt More Than They Help
    Offering discounts without a structured approach can actually lower your total revenue. Smart promotions are about targeting the right guests at the right time—not just running a sale for the sake of filling nights.

  • If You Don’t Measure It, You Can’t Improve It
