FAQ

Pricing questions.

Are there setup fees?

No. The two-week onboarding audit is included in the first month’s retainer at every tier. There are no separate setup fees, no system-integration fees, and no per-user license costs.

What is the minimum engagement length?

Three months at Essential and Premier; six months at Signature. After the minimum, engagements continue month-to-month with 30 days’ written notice to end.

Is there a multi-property discount?

Yes. Portfolios of three to five properties receive 7% off per hotel; six to nine properties receive 12% off; ten or more receive custom pricing. Discount applies to all properties on the contract at the same tier.

What does the four-hour SLA actually mean?

Signature-tier engagements include a written guarantee: any email or call from the property general manager, asset manager, or owner during U.S. business hours (8am–6pm CT, Monday–Friday) receives a substantive response — not an acknowledgement — within four hours.

Do you ever take performance-based fees?

Performance fees are available on Signature engagements with a minimum 12-month term and a defined baseline. Structured as a smaller base retainer plus a percentage of RevPAR-index lift over baseline, calculated quarterly from STR data.
