Smart floors, not ceilings.
Your pricing safety net.
At Book NOLA, we don’t use minimum rates to protect us from risk. We use them to position your property for consistent, optimized earnings.
Unlike legacy pricing systems that cling to static base rates or arbitrary nightly minimums, our approach to pricing floors is dynamic, comp-set driven, and revenue-minded.
We don’t aim to “fill nights.” We aim to maximize the value of every single booking.
How We Set Smarter Minimums:
Comp-Set Anchored
Every unit is analyzed against real-time, like-kind competitors, not the entire market. We examine amenities, locations, photography, and review scores to understand what your guests will actually compare your home to in search results.
Seasonally Calibrated
Minimum rates shift throughout the year based on demand curves, local events, weather, and historic performance. We never let one static number dictate how your home performs.
Event-Based Escalation
During peak events like Jazz Fest, Mardi Gras, and Essence, our revenue managers implement strategic escalators, and then dial them in based on actual pacing, not wishful thinking.
Protection Without Panic Pricing
Our software gradually lowers pricing only when appropriate, never undercutting your earnings at the last minute. This lets you capture premium bookings early while staying competitive closer to check-in.
Why It Works:
-
Stronger RevPAR:
Nights are priced to earn, not just to fill space. Your average revenue per night increases without sacrificing occupancy. -
Flexible Reactivity:
If a competitor drops their rates due to a bad review or low occupancy, we might not follow, unless it benefits your overall yield. -
Real-World Performance:
During a slower-than-average Jazz Fest, our entire portfolio outperformed the local market by 10–20%, because our pricing floors were intelligent, not inflexible.
“We don’t use minimum rates to survive. We use them to outperform.”
