Introducing ‘Seasonality Adjustments’, the most advanced & personalized price setting to date!
One of the biggest limitations to truly personalizing a short-term rental pricing strategy is relying too much on a single base price to control all of your prices for 12+ months, including high and low seasons.
We recently got this note from a customer that had just switched over to Wheelhouse:
What I am most interested in is seasonal pricing for one property in particular. It is a 3 Bedroom stand alone house two blocks away from the United Center. This time of year I want to get very aggressive on pricing just to break even during the winter months. I’d like to also keep the spring/summer months open on my calendar now with but much higher rates (presently I have April onward blocked off). The way BP works is there is a single base price and their fix was to manually enter pricing for the winter rates which kind of defeats the purpose for a lot of what I use them for.
This feedback confirmed that any good dynamic pricing tool must allow you to run your business your way, rather than force you into in a one-size-fits-all approach.
Today, we are really excited to announce Seasonality Adjustments, the most advanced and personalized price setting to date. Looking to take a more aggressive approach this Summer while leaving the rest of your rates alone? Or decrease just your Winter rates by 20%? You can now do that directly on Wheelhouse.
Or — if you really want to fine-tune your pricing strategy — you can now modify your prices on a monthly level too. This will be especially useful for the power users that want maximum control over their 12-month pricing outlook. Below is an example:
To adjust your seasonality:
- Head over to your Wheelhouse dashboard
- Click “View Calendar” on one of your listings
- Click “Settings”
- Click “Seasonality Adjustments” on the left sidebar
And as always, please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or feedback! After all, we take customer feedback pretty serious around here…
