[STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN] – June 26, 2023 – Demand Calendar, a comprehensive revenue and profit management system, will be exhibited for the first time at HITEC in Toronto. Demand Calendar, designed with a profit-oriented approach, aims to provide hotel businesses with tools for more accurate total revenue forecasting, effective management of customer acquisition cost, and profit optimization. Visit booth #517 to learn more about profit-oriented total revenue management.
Profit-Oriented Revenue Management is an approach that optimizes the total revenue mix to maximize profit flow-through, focusing on attracting guests and customers who spend more, thus increasing total revenue, reducing costs, and increasing profitability. A key aspect of this approach is managing customer acquisition cost effectively, which contributes to profit flow-through.
Demand Calendar is built upon these principles. The platform provides real-time tracking of performance and profitability, allowing businesses to understand and forecast total revenue to predict profits without waiting for monthly reports. This real-time access to critical data mitigates the issues many hotels face, where late reporting often results in hasty, ill-informed decisions that can negatively impact revenue and profit.

At the heart of Demand Calendar is the focus on making the work of the commercial team effective and efficient. The Demand Calendar SMART Suite – one system for Sales, Marketing, and Revenue – unifies team objectives by promoting a profit-focused approach to all roles in the commercial team. It offers multi-property consolidation to deliver invaluable and the same insights for all team members to encourage collaboration in managing many hotels effectively in a hotel group, thereby enhancing profits. During HITEC, Demand Calendar will highlight new and innovative features, including
