The partnership · Commercial strategy and plan

A 90-day plan with the measures agreed before it starts

Strategy for a property is a small number of decisions: which segments to win, what the property can say that competitors cannot, which channels to hold and which to shrink, how rates are fenced across seasons, and what has to be fixed before any of it is bought. We make those decisions with you, write them down, and attach a number to each.

What the plan covers

Six decisions, written down

Positioning by segment

What the property is for, stated so a guest and an engine can repeat it. One sentence per priority segment, tested against what the comp set already claims.

Channel mix and parity

Where revenue should come from in twelve months, what each channel costs all in once commission, programme fees, payment charges and cancellations are counted, a parity check across your top platforms and sampled dates, and which channels shrink rather than disappear.

Rate architecture

Rate levels, fences, inclusions, member and direct rates, and length-of-stay rules that survive both parity obligations and a quiet Tuesday in November.

Demand calendar

Where the season, the events and the compression dates sit, and which weeks need demand rather than discount.

What to fix first

The work that must happen before media is bought: booking path, parity, tracking, room pages. Ordered by payback.

Measures and cadence

The four commercial numbers, targets for day 90, who owns each action, and the weekly and monthly rhythm that keeps it on track.

What you receive

One document, one page per decision

The plan, the channel-cost model behind it, a 90-day sequence with owners and dates, and a scope for the Growth partnership if you want us to run it. Presented to the owner and the commercial team together, then left with you to run yourselves if you prefer.

What we will not do

Promise the day-90 numbers

The targets are what the plan is designed to reach, and the evidence for them is in the model. We commit to the work and the cadence. The numbers depend on the market, and the plan states that plainly.
