A Simple Argument for Measuring Your Success

“A sub-optimal decision in time
is better than an optimal decision too late.”- Dr. Ravi Mehrotra, President and Founder of IDeaS

Forecast Accuracy vs. Forecast
Performance
• Takes into account the
inherent volatility of the
business
• Considers quality of
inputs

In closing
• Focus & Alignment
• Keep it simple and short
• Its not the “what” but the “why”

Measuring Success:Keeping it simple & powerful
Measuring success begins with clear definition of goals
Followed by a rigorous and disciplined process for
performance focus
Measurement is about impacting the results – not
limited to keeping score
1. “In-Market Measurement”
a) Monitor and measure while
actions are in play
b) Fine tune actions, course correct
2. Retrospective Measurement
a) Ensure you reached your goals
b) Review “final tally”
c) Implement learning for
upcoming goals
Measure in the context of your competitive set…
• Relative performance:
– Benchmarking against competitive set
– Utilizing Share and Index measures
• Identify right competitive set
– Chain Scale
– Property/Portfolio characteristics
– Location
Measuring performance while actions are “in-play”….
• Provides us the ability to fine tune & course correct
– Business Mix & Strategy
• Targeting growth in specific channels (e.g. Brand.com) and segments (e.g.
Transient)
– Pricing Actions:
• Occupancy/room night pace
• Occupancy/room night share
• Price Position
– Promotion Actions:
• Fair Share YoY variance
• Competitive matching
Example: Measuring Success – While pricing action is in
play…

Mon Jun-13-2011 My Prop 76.6% $227.82
Comp Set 67.1%
Index 114%
Rank 2 of 7 1 of 7
“As of date” = June 5th
• Price Position: Does not have to be constant
– Monitor pricing action and modify as needed
Example: Promotions behave differently based on
property, competitive matching, promo duration
Promotion / Price Sale
# of Arrival Dates(Weekend only)
Occupancy Fair Share Var YoY
Occupancy Market Share Var YoY
Promotion 1 32 - 3.56 - 0.40
Promotion 2 24 - 1.37 - 0.15
Promotion 3 18 5.58 0.61
Key Takeaways
1. Execute a rigorous process for
performance measurement
2. Measure relative to market /
competitive set
a) Share, Fair share
3. Measure while action are “in-play”
(forward looking) and retrospective

Revenue Management: The Misunderstood
Measuring the Success of RM
• Starts with the definition of the discipline
– Cliché: Asking the right price, at the right time, to
the right customer
versus
– My personal: The application of microeconomics
to trade
RM: Taking it beyond price optimization
• Using the broader – in my mind – the right
definition and view:– Challenge the notion of using traditional ways
• What’s one of the main coefficient factors the auto industry uses
in determining demand and price
Consumer Confidence Index (CCI)
• Where is the CCI used in the hotel industry
Nowhere!
