On the “Price management” page of TL Price Optimizer, there is a price calendar. By default, the next 31 days are displayed there. Use the buttons above the calendar to select any month a year ahead.
Recommendations in the calendar
TL Price Optimizer automatically defines the best possible price for every day and suggests you change the current one. If the price rate in a cell is in green, you need to raise it. In case it is red, you need to lower it. When the best possible price is already set, there is no suggestion in the cell.
When mousing over a cell, you will see the detailed information on the day available currently:
Current rate level
Recommended rate level
Price position on the market
Reservations added today and for the last 7 days
Current occupancy of the hotel and the room category
The information is updated as new bookings are created.
